There are two linguistic theories actually it's
1. binary branching trees
2. markedness vs. faithfulness

This is the third time I've been profiled as a Latina in the Netherlands. I was at the market and some Turkish seller was like "cinquenta (cent)" for a bushel of mint.

what we've learned today:

if you're writing documents that might be discoverable, part of a historical record, etc? say at least one thing that is extremely inflammatory, very funny, and difficult to disprove.

ideally deliver it flat so it's really unclear if it's a joke

genuinely how do you translate 'merantau'
kinda funny how the word for 'king' from Proto-North Halmahera came about to become 'to work on another island' in Indonesian.

OJ klana "prince from overseas" > Jav kəlana "knights errant"
> Mly. bərkəlana "to work on another island/to shepherd"
(cf. Ternate kolano)

I have a 9am lecture tomorrow but new Haspelmath paper
New paper on back-formation and "forward-formation": If one takes the right view of the inventorium (or "extended lexicon"), there is no distinction between "potential words" and "existing words", and the problems with "back-formation" disappear. www.euppublishing.com/doi/10.3366/...

I just realized that the subjunctive and future in French is just infinitive + avoir </3
