Re: Modern Irish (diachronics)

Yes, I tried comparing them, but it is more complicated than it looks. I wrote about the sound changes, but the grammar would also be interesting to know about. The verbal system changed a lot according to what I read about these two languages. I don't really post on the ZBB, so if you wanted to be ...

Modern Irish (diachronics)

Hi guys! It has been a while since I haven't posted on the CBB, but I'm reading posts every day, especially the conlang section. I have been looking for Irish diachronics for a little less than a year. I can't seem to find anything though. Yes, there is indeed a very extensive explanation of what ha...

Re: Thread de jasage ! [français]

Je vous déconseillerais de vous fier au français contenu dans le PDF; les exemples sont truffés d'erreurs tant orthographiques que grammaticales, même ceux supposément dialectaux. [Après relecture du PDF, il n'y en a pas tant, mais quand même assez pour me demander si l'auteur a pris la peine de se ...

Re: Language practice thread

S'il y a une chose que j'adore plus qu'un débat au sujet de la grammaire, c'est une discussion animée au sujet de la grammaire et de la sémantique. It's not incorrect grammatically, but it sounds a lot like a foreign speaker. "Au sujet de" isn't the absolute translation of "about&quo...

Re: Language practice thread

La traduction de maori [nothing here] est bizarre; en revanche, la traduction de chinois en maori, c'est 'hainamana', ça vien t du mot anglais 'Chinaman'. The translation of Māori is weird, but on the other hand the Māori translation of Chinese is from the English word 'Chinaman'. It had the meanin...

Re: Language practice thread

Non lo so.
I don't know.

I personally don't think it's a patois. And our sense of identity is so strong you'd be lynched by Québeckers if you were telling them they're speaking a mere "patois". It has a derogative sense in French. A really strong one.

Re: Language practice thread

Ah, je comprends. Mais pourquoi est-ce que ça s'appelle le Proto-Ombrique? Je voudrais quand même t'aider si tu le veux ou si jamais tu as besoin d'aide.
"il-elle" is only used for consistent, touchable things; except when it's personified.
