did not know about that story. Just read on lingthusiasm's 'Bonus 66: Using a rabbit to get kids chatting for science'. Did not know about that. Pretty neat.

Hey! Does linguistics have a mascot? The wug doesn't feel right—I think it might have copyright issues, and it's too English-specific. We need something universal and copyright-free. Any ideas for existing ones, or interested in proposing one?

I have a few questions on glossing with Fieldworks Language Explorer (FLEX). I am cross-posting from reddit, in case someone here can help out.

I was looking for ideas of how to start with the protolanguage of a conlang and ran into concepticon.clld.org reminds me of the Conlanger's Thesaurus by William Annis. Thinking of mixing the two together in some way :D

And there are kanji-latin and kanji-kana characters in actual use, some of which have recently been proposed for Unicode encoding (alongside some han-hangul hybrids too)

Interestingly, 'no' (vs. 'yes') isn't related to Spanish 'no'.

English 'no' stems from *naiwan ("never").

Spanish 'no' comes from Latin 'nōn', from Old Latin 'noinom' ("not one thing").

This means Spanish 'no' is related to German 'nein', from Proto-Germanic *nainan, a distant cousin of 'noinom'!

You should get this book.

Great book. One of my nonfiction picks for the Biblioracle Books of the Year for 2024. digitaledition.chicagotribune.com/tribune/arti...

This important question about the role of children in cultural evolution is a less domain-specific version of a question that has long exercised linguists. It's a good example, in fact, of how linguists should be very much engaged in the field of cultural evolution.

Anyways... what I am trying to get at is Arch comunity can be toxic at times, any community for that matter. But based on my experience and what I've seen in others, Arch is pretty bad.

asked for help in the forums. BIG MISTAKE. Got a sortaa hyper-independence trauma from that. Went back to windows. I would flirt with new linux distros every now and then cause they were new projects and asking for help was less scary, but stillm sometimes I get stuck and go back to windows 2/2

I remember when I built my first pc about 12 years ago, I wanted to run linux in it. Never really could get the hang of it completely. For some reason I can't recall I did not want Ubuntu and because everyone was recommending Arch I tried it. I got suck and 1/2

I have seen an increase of subscriptions on my channel, so why not advertise it a bit. If anyone needs a full course on Phonetics and Intro to Linguistics (which I created for my students), feel free to like, share, and subscribe :)

YouTube video by Conlangery The Language Creation Society announces 11th Language Creation Conference!

Just dropped a new video where I go through the 11th Language Creation Conference call for presentations. Spread it so more people can see and potentially apply to present! #conlang #language #linguistics youtu.be/gEGm_VBtLXE

Not much into politiks but I am loving the lingusitic forensics here 🤣🤣🤣

Ummm... The link is dead 😶‍🌫️. Is the application process closed?

Sure, English is a Dumpster™ fire that drinks prescriptivist tears.

But lexicology and grammar are different things, and the errorist writer knows it. I'll see your addition of "enshittification" to the dictionary and raise you a tangible perception of your abstract noun. Bring the buttwipe.

The elements of storytelling from National Geographic

Most people think storytelling starts with a great idea.

But there's a crucial step before that.

Skipping it dooms your story before it's even started...
