Loanwords (2014-11-09 03:24:23) :
Additionally remember that in an expansionist and/or colonial empire loanwords are likely to sneak in from the territories. Languages also seem to have their own character in how easily they accept loanwords, from Mandarin's [2% loanwords] "native compounds can describe the concept better than your barbarian original" to English's [75%] "give us all your vocabulary in used notes and don't even think about pressing that alarm"[plus]Yes, these characters tend to stem in a large part from ide...

Possible bug: I'm getting messages when someone comments on prettydragoon's [#214259|Religion and Mythology], saying

[quote ObsequiousNewt, Pixel]I don't know if this has been reported yet, or if this is considered a bug (I'd rather not read through the past thirty pages), but the inline notes show up in the lower left corner of the browser window for me.

Hah, this is largely what I did with the map I drew five years ago... but I'll post it here anyway, just to see what y'all come up with. (Note that this is a list of words (and toponyms at that) and not an actual utterance but whatever.)

quote quote quote "standard" unquote unquote unquote reference grammars :
I would like people who know to help with making a list of the """Standard""" reference grammars of various languages. I would like to have this information so that I can put them in the... the thing. Obviously I'm not talking about the "best" grammars, but rather the most "authoritative" ones, the ones that are cited as being THE grammar, etc. This'll partly overlap with the thread about grammars that don't dick you around, but I'd prefer to have these separate, esp. since you may know of some ...

Loanwords :
How much of a language's vocabulary should be loanwords (both directly and derived through SC)? I know there's no direct answer, but I'd like to hear a good range, as well as anything I should take into consideration.
