@Lady yeah seems reasonable. for 2 yeah the derived stems are indeed considered words (a speaker of the language would be aware of the root and pattern and what each tend to mean but the specific meaning of each combination has to be learned separately). so i guess i’ll go with not marking the root or pattern explicitly and glossing for the meaning of the particular stem. (if people need to know the root they can look up the stem in the lexicon)
@Lady kinda.
i think the main points i'm undecided about are:
- should i mark the pattern morpheme within the Midêkʰ text? is that worth the ugliness of ending up with "
gn-\<hi>m\<i>dkʰ\<í>-k" (glossed as perhaps "DAT(F)-word-PL")... - well, i hadn't thought about this problem before yours but, the question of whether to include a gloss for the meaning of the derived stem or that of the root or both...
@Lady do you have thoughts on notating Semitic-style triconsonantal root morphology in glosses
food
how common is plum jam in the US? i feel like i do not remember ever seeing it. here it is very common
is it making the same consonant twice in a row? is it a single consonant but longer? does it matter? who can say
i think maybe nobody in the whole world has ever been sure what exactly a geminate consonant is
possibly undesirable conlanging outcomes, bodily fluids
oops, maybe i should either not have chosen "p-s-ŋ" as the root for liquids and also decided to have most patterns for forming nouns insert "i" between the first two consonants of the root.

@wallhackio @Satsuma i just have read the majority of the supers and ww2 marvel comics from the 60s. probably. i did skip most of the thor and hulk and all of ant man.

@wallhackio sadly i don’t expect to be in your state this year

@wallhackio the howling commandos were nick fury’s commando unit (originally) world war 2. probably some other time frame in the MCU. gabriel jones, dum-dum durgan, dino… i don’t remember his last name, rebel ralston, izzy cohen. entirely possible i got some or all of those last names wrong but i think the first names/nicknames are right.
el secreto de sus ojos in fact a pretty good movie
english translation
bad luck for my learning that the school near the apartment (and that we can hear every day) has a bilingual program, and the part we can hear is often the english part.
mala suerte para mi aprendizaje que el colegio cerca del departamento (y el que podemos escuchar cada día) tiene un programa bilingüe y la parte que podemos escuchar a menudo es la de inglés.
@Lady omg yessss this works
life-changing tbh
is there any foss application out there to let me take a pdf and edit its like, outline/bookmarks/whatever-you-call-that?
there are like a billion applications to edit pdfs in various ways that don't seem to have this feature.
for example, not far from here is Villa Martelli. which has two different sounds for “ll”for reasons entirely unpredictable from the words in themselves.
slightly amusing that spanish as it is actually used ends up having an inconsistent sound-spelling correspondence for similar reasons to (some of) the much more extensive inconsistencies in English sound-spelling correspondence.
i think sofi and i are currently tied at truco this month (6-6 if i counted right)
@Lady hm, fair
@Lady i feel like it's the former, based on the structure of the line: lock down the campus cause it's right to rebel; the attempts to suppress campus activism doesn't directly relate to that slogan. but if "lock down the campus" is a call to action for the students, then it is directly derived from it being right to rebel, and it well mirrors the slogan's use during the cultural revolution
