redcatblackcat: breadtoy
http://redcatblackcat.blogspot.com/2013/11/breadtoy.html
Wednesday, November 27, 2013. Ooh, breadtoy, breadtoy! I have to take it up from the floor and onto the bed, so that I can cover the sheets all with crumbs! I will bat it and whack it and bite it and gnaw it and thwack it from here over to there! I shall hit it with left paw, and hit it with right, and poke it under the blanket it and snag it right back! I will jump at it, pounce on it, paw at it, look confused by it, snack on it a bit, and then leap away! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

redcatblackcat: April 2010
http://redcatblackcat.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html
Sunday, April 18, 2010. Cows deride the pasta tenses, and recalcitrant pickle rhetoric. Life is a lot more fun if you see difference more as an opportunity than as an annoyance. So, tell me why. Saying we only need one language is like saying we only need one song. A stack o' stuff. Smallbits are tasty easy fun. After losing so many hours of years. To the deep low drone,. To the grey wet wool blanket. That sogs you sad. Leaves you slow and cold. With the only flame burning. In the eating of your self.

A feisty embuggerance | Glossographia
https://glossographia.wordpress.com/2009/10/21/a-feisty-embuggerance
Embuggerance, E., and H. Feisty. 2008. The linguistics of laughter. English Today. 1, no 04: 47-47. After I stopped laughing, I set to figuring out what was going on. 1) I quickly discarded the theory that an unlikely duo of scholars actually had this pair of names – although that would have been too awesome for words. In fact, no other article listed in Google Scholar. Has an author named ‘Embuggerance’ (although there are a couple other Feistys. By Walter Nash. It’s perfectly ordinary and non...Krasis,...

bulbulistan: October 2013
http://blog.bulbul.sk/2013_10_01_archive.html
Monday, October 28, 2013. In which I briefly ponder the morphology of greetings. To explain: In addition to all the formal [1]. What is that suffix, you ask? Hang on, is that the only explanation? Well, no. One could for example consider the influence of analogy where these forms would be based on greetings like "maj(te) sa" which is a honest-to-Ninurta verb in the imperative: the full form is "maj(te) sa dobre" = "be well". Mať", lit. "to hav. E", metaphorically "to be in a X condition" [4]. And there i...

Mandarin vs. Cantonese in America | Glossographia
https://glossographia.wordpress.com/2009/10/21/mandarin-vs-cantonese-this-time-its-interpersonal
Mandarin vs. Cantonese in America. There’s an interesting article. Well, it looks like the positive aspect of this is that in these cases Mandarin isn’t so much supplanting Cantonese as it is supplementing it. Even if the overall proportion of Cantonese speakers to Mandarin speakers suffers, children are gaining an invaluable third system of insight into thought and into the world, when most children in the US have to settle for a single, insular tongue. Nice blog I’ll be back! October 22, 2009 at 6:10 am.

Still embuggered up | Glossographia
https://glossographia.wordpress.com/2015/02/02/still-embuggered-up
Over five years ago, I published what was (for a long time) to be my most popular post here at Glossographia, A feisty embuggerance. In which I described in the wild a particularly bizarre sort of optical character recognition error that found its way into Google Scholar’s metadata, resulting in an otherwise ordinary paper authored by the unlikely duo of Escalate Embuggerance and Holistic Feisty (Embuggerance and Feisty 1985). After the folks at Language Log. Leave a Reply Cancel reply. February 2, 2015.
