The logic of #6, for which I apologize:

All four of you: correct! Woo

Only 4, 6, and the extra remain undeciphered by anyone.

Okay. Indeed, the font setting is gone again.

Incorrect, I'm afraid. You may be over-thinking it - #2 is, in principle at least, the simplest of them.

Erm. At the time you implemented that, I changed my preference to Serif. And it worked perfectly. But sometime in the last couple weeks the site has forgotten that I set this; it is back to the default sans-serif font.

Having just re-changed it, it is back to serif again. But something did happen to the setting. Hopefully it won't be forgotten again?

Yaali: you guessed correctly for #5 (the first one), and for all of 7 - 12.



I admit, #6 is rather a stretch, and if nobody gets it I will have nobody to blame but myself.

And finally, to make a baker's dozen, there's one more... one which I myself can neither remember nor figure out the answer to. Feel free to have a go! (If you guess correctly I will probably be able to tell that it's correct.)

Ness's Travelogue (2014-04-10 17:05:18) :

Globe, AZ
Show Low, AZ
Why, AZ
Surprise, AZ
Tombstone, AZ
Truth or Consequences, NM
Snowflake, AZ
Hurricane, UT
Pahrump, NV

Reduplication issues in my conlang (crosspost from blog) (2014-02-13 16:33:14) :
Late to the party here, but I would say: go for it. There is no reason why nouniness of adjectives would prevent the two word classes from working in different ways. For example big > bigger, but kill > killer; -er goes for both comparatives on adjectives and agentive nominalizations on verbs. This sort of thing happens in nature, and it's normal and common for linguists to use such differences as tests for a root's default syntactic category.
