Re: Innovative Usage Thread
Are there people who say [bʊf] for "boof", [fʊf] for "foof", [pʊf] for "poof", or [lʊfə] for "loofah"? Australian English has /bʊf/ "clumsy/stupid person" and /pʊf/ "gay man", but those probably aren't the words you have in mind. /buːf/ &q...

Re: Linguistic Miscellany Thread
Do we have any examples of languages in which conjugation for person has been lost in all but one or a few very common verbs? I'm imagining a situation where the copula, for example, still distinguishes person such that the subject pronoun can be dropped, but all or nearly all other verbs require t...

Re: Linguistic Miscellany Thread
For /tɬ/ without /ɬ/, PHOIBLE has Nahuatl, Wintu, and Squamish, and IPHON has Bawm. Wintu and Squamish look dubious, but Nahuatl is a known case. Reichle 1981 agrees that Bawm doesn't have /ɬ/, but analyzes <tl thl> as the only clusters in the language, which seems silly - why not unit /tɬ tɬʰ/?

Re: Conlang fluency thread
Lemme guess - alternate history Germanic-lang? The combination of features it has makes it not likely to be descended from any extant Germanic language. English expands earlier and is displaced by French in the Norman Conquest, leaving the present day with a variety of Anglic minority languages, su...

[fluːf], [hʊf], [ruːf] for me. I wouldn't have predicted the existence of [flʊf]. Are there people who say [bʊf] for "boof", [fʊf] for "foof", [pʊf] for "poof", or [lʊfə] for "loofah"?

Starostin isn't Nyland, but neither are Ehret or Proulx. There's a difference between bad linguists and cranks. I don't even know that I'd call Ruhlen a crank. (Gell-Mann tho, absolutely.) Blevins has been arguing for Indo-Vasconic for years, but I don't see any reason to hold her comparative work i...

Rennellese 'orthographic g' is [ŋg]. "Luangia" should be "Luangiua". What about palatalization? - t > č > s / _i in Tongan - t > s / _i in Pileni - t > č / _i in "East Futunan and the Aniwan dialect of Futuna-Aniwa" - t > ʃ / _i in the Futunan dialect of West Futunan

Re: Linguistic Miscellany Thread
I note that it's undecided whether they need a preceding glottal stop character at the start of a word. Is there something funny or incomplete about the requirement for a Qiang word to start with a consonant? Or perhaps they have contrastive word-initial glottal stop? (Not that I’d know anything ab...
