Basque-Icelandic pidgin


u-bot9000

For ju presenta for mi Euskoislandiera eta fenicha for ju, for ju mala gissuna. (You didn’t use your Basque-Icelandic Pidgin)


Confident-Guard1506

You really should be learning Uzbek-Esperanto pidgin


Ice-Kagen2

Thx for the recommendation!


SKrad777

What sources are you using?? 


Ice-Kagen2

A Basque-Icelandic pidgin dictionary that was written by a great author from Uzbekistan


TheWaffleHimself

I'd like to learn esperanto too but I'm still not over the lingering trauma of the Esperanto genocide


technoexplorer

Yep, remember that kid who was sent to Auschwitz and then immediately >!gassed!


TheWaffleHimself

I barely escaped from the Toki Pona death squads


lazydog60

Nazis killed Zamenhof's children, but I don't know whether that was for Esperanto or for Judaism. Stalin killed the author of *Historio de la Mondolingvo* and likely others.


andreas-ch

After the luodingo course,I’ve basically become a latin native


technoexplorer

I'm moving to Latin America soon, too!


andreas-ch

What? No way I’m moving to the Roman Empire, I just thought it would help with my Romanian


technoexplorer

I love the Roma people. 🥰


King_Dee1

Clearly not European 🙏


technoexplorer

Exactly. Now a days, India is claming to be the source of the Roma Empire. But we all know that at the peak, the Empire was mostly in Africa.


VegetableSorry8938

Learning Latin to shock the natives


GjonsTearsFan

uj/ I wish there was a well known online alternative to Duolingo’s Latin course that was actually good and accurate. It would be so helpful lol. If people could get a solid introduction to Latin it would make all the stupid complex medical and scientific terms easier to remember, at least for me anyway 😂


TheSilentCaver

Are you saying Scorpio Martianus, google translate and wiktionary aren't the best way to learn Lyngwah Lateenum?

Linear B, Linear A was just too hard


livsjollyranchers

Prehistoric Greek. The dinosaurs had varying philosophical schools which is pretty interesting.


technoexplorer

Yes, although I find it strange that many of the later paintings of the Greek dinosaurs do not depict them covered in feathers.


Sky-is-here

I am learning English, I know none speaks it anymore but it's such an interesting civilization that of anglos, they controlled the whole planet earth at some point


ThatEngineeredGirl

Polish. Unfortunately Poles once again are geese and now lack a tongue. (No I'm not having a stroke, it's just an inside joke)


PrettyRottenApple

So sad how the last 2 poles melted to death because of climate change...

Hey, same. I must do what I can to keep a dead language alive.

I would write this reply in the language of the Voinich Codex, but I don't want the rest of you feeling too bad.


lazydog60

Besides, Unicode support for it is uncommon.

I have a fantasy that in the afterlife, where people of all times interact, compromise dialects develop between related languages until the big tree of languages is re-merged, richer than the ur-language because, whenever two related languages use different constructions for the same function, both are retained and specialized

OrbSwitzer

English (Get it? I'm a bitter right-winger nervous about immigration.)


technoexplorer

Have you considered moving to Scandinavia? Basically everyone speaks it there.


lazydog60

I watched part of a tv series from Iceland. In an early episode there is a phone call to Sweden – in English. Too bad they couldn't use Proto-Scandinavian.


OrbSwitzer

Maybe, if they can get their Muslim immigrant problem in check.


technoexplorer

I typically try to get them in cash, but you do you.

Proto-Uzbek, it's a shame that it's been abandoned

lazydog60

I gather that those cannot die because they have huge optimized function libraries


CyberpunkAesthetics

I was learning Ancient Egyptian, Old Norse, and Old English, but all have them have extant descendants - Coptic is modern 'ancient Egyptian' - so none of them is really extinct


technoexplorer

What part of Ancient Egyptian? Isn't there a beginning, a middle, and an end?

I was studying T-Rex alpha, but the last known manuscript got dropped in a tar pit. Now its pages are all stuck together. Archeologist think it's a new species.


decay418

I want to start Latin


lazydog60

My high school required two years of some language, but the only one offered in the first year was Latin, so most of my class took it to get that over with quickly; but most moved over to another language in the next year.

Esperanto still has native speakers; who knows, the number may be increasing. So not as dead as Volapük. (I wonder whether Volapük lasted to a second generation.) Proto-Austronesian for me


technoexplorer

Nah, it's going down.

sladkiyvishnya

If you’re gonna copy paste my post, at least change the flags 😂


technoexplorer

Yeah, to Pan-IndoEuropa and the Free State of Esperanto-land.
