The only time the swiss aren’t neutral, and it’s this lmao

Cats are near sighted but can see much better in the dark compared to us. They also have a wider field of view.

They see color similiar to how a person with protanopia would. At least, that is what I understood from the wiki.

they doubled down on mastodon (the official account too) but now it’s deleted. Here’s their comment on reddit: https://archive.ph/quYyb

You should go read a history book before speaking.

I have. And yeah slavery existed just like everywhere, where do i deny that in my comment? You said that seeing a white dude with a child sex slave is some common thing.

We still have widely practiced modern slavery in the gulf and north africa, it’s not like you are uniquely evil. Sounds to me, you are the one that should read a history book ;)

Yup, we call it riyals, or some people romanize it as rijals. I didn’t know it stems from portugal/spain, must have been related to al-andalus.

Between old french and english, middle english; the word /reuler/ split, and became two words: ruler 🫅, and ruler 📏. Same word, same origin, different meaning.

Great tip, thank you! I’ll keep it in mind.

idk about you, but i’ve never seen a white dude with child sex slaves. wtf are you talking about?

And every modern country slaves away for billionaires, what country are you living in that doesn’t?

Nah, he’s probably white himself. I’ve literally never seen anyone online hate white people more than themselves. It’s a weird phenomenon…

Interesting paper, thanks for sharing

Are you color blind? If so I’ll try to edit them, then upload a separate version that’s easier to read.

You sound like you’re white as fuck

What? what does this mean?

Bro don’t out us like that, i’m trying my best 😭

We don’t have Latin education here. i’m purely a hobbyist at linguistics and language learning, so I’m still a little dull at it.

I started the Latin comm since the .world one is dead, and after only a day it managed to get almost 70 subscribers (the first 5 minutes I created it, there were 35 subscribers immediately O_O), but I’m mainly the active one there. In a few days hopefully some of the lurkers will post, too.

I didn’t notice you moderate linguistics by the way, I’ll be sure to drop some posts about Semitic languages and such later on :)

Welcome! I didn’t realize there were this many Latin hobbyists on Lemmy, either :)

I’ll check out !linguistics@mander.xyz too, thanks!

PIE might not actually even exist, there is no proof of it. The hypothesis is that there used to be only one language in the Indo-Europes 4500-2500 BCE, And and as speakers were mose isolated, regional dialects began to form, and thousands of years later they became distinct languages. But we don’t know anything about PIE itself. It’s a mess.

Anyways, as for your question: they noticed things off about some words, and it was theorized that there were other letters. These are the Laryngeals.

Those aren’t H’s, they’re Laryngeals (They use the same letter, but there is a small number next to it; that makes it a different consonant). As for why they were dropped or how they sound, nobody knows.

There is a Wikipedia page on it https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laryngeal_theory?wprov=sfla1

They’re called Laryngeals, and no one really knows how to pronounce them, from what I can tell.

Edit, there are two theories on how to pronounce them:

Rasmussen chose a consonantal realization for *h₃ as a voiced labialized velar fricative [ɣʷ], with a syllabic allophone [ɵ], i.e. a close-mid central rounded vowel. Kümmel instead suggests [ʁ].

I haven’t heard of people screaming about pies in someone’s face, so I think it’s safe to assume PIE means proto-indo-european :)
