When an Old English infinitive was used with 'to', its form changed:

- Iċ sċeal ETAN (I shall EAT)
- Iċ begann tō ETENNE (I began to EAT)

This was its dative case.

Yes, even infinitives had case back then!

Frisian still does this:
- Ik sil ITE
- Ik begûn te ITEN

A map of the Pacific Northwest Coast of the State of Washington, USA and the Province of British Columbia, Canada depicting the rough outline of Coast Salish languages in the 19th century which are centered around the Salish Sea. Klallam is on the northern coast of the Olympic Peninsula south of Vancouver Island which is separated internationally by the Strait of Jaun de Fuca.

This is a topographical map of the Olympic Peninsula with a cut out box with further details on the distribution of Klallam on the “Olympic coast” at the foot of the Olympic Mountains stretching nearly from end to end of the Strait.

Klallam word of the day is:

I’ve liked the Kurosawa films I’ve seen & some other older live action stuff. I’m open to trying to animes, but don’t often like them lol.

I do like the rest of Japan though. The seedy, wacky underbelly under the kawaii exterior is my area of interest
