@Morgan interesting, i was actually taught not to use the word dialect, period. but my background is more in applied linguistics, which is technically a separate field from regular vanilla linguistics.

 

[Morgan]

Interesting as well, I was taught to use 'dialect', 'variety' and 'accents' to reference different levels of language shifts.

 

[Deric Storm]

I just love how my family's two languages (English and Gaelic) aren't on that diagram

 

[Morgan]

Although this was some time ago, and education is always a moving platform.

 

[Morgan]

Good evening, @Deric Storm, @Charlet

 

[Neb]

[Jacqueline Hyde]

@Deric Storm you mean the eevee one? those two aren't derived from latin... well, parts of english are, by way of french.

 

[Jacqueline Hyde]
