How do you pronounce "antifa"? I realized I have no idea of its English realization, as "fa" is short for "fascist", but the "fa" of "fascist" can't typically end a word (in Dutch we have no such problem, as we have /fa/, for the first syllable of f...

On a juste eu les funèrailles de ma grand-mère la semaine dernière, et demain je dois s'y remettre comme d'habitude. Merde, mais je suis encore tellement fatiguée.

Ich bin nicht sicher, warum manche Leute denken, dass Französisch einfacher als Deutsch ist... I am not sure why some people think French is easier than German...

Bin ich mir nicht sicher. I'm not sure. Por falar de idiomas, eu já vi expressões de verbo-inicial como "V ich" em alemão (e iídiche por sinal) antes, mas como eles funcionam me escapa. Speaking of idioms, I have seen verb-initial expressions like "V ich" in German (and Yiddish ...

Dunno if this has been discussed already here, but PIE *Hebl- 'apple' may not be a loanword at all, and instead just be a metastethised form of *meHlom. Can't track down the paper from academia.edu I originally read that in, but the gist is that an intermediate form *Heml- underwent ml → bl. Also, ...

What does it even mean for a language to be ‘too big’ or ‘too small’? It’s just… how the language works. If you dislike their phonaesthetic, fine, but please don’t pretend it’s some kind of objective judgement. (For instance, I suspect you’d greatly dislike Coptic and Dorig [see section 4.2], which...
