Linguistics and Languages

Welcome everybody! Feel free to post links to resources (be sure they conform to Ramble's standards beforehand) or start discussions on the world's languages.

A few ground rules for this forum:

Follow the site's guidelines and the general netiquette. Don't be rude to anyone, don't feed the trolls, the usual stuff.
Only discuss languages, linguistics and cultures. Don't go off-topic; people don't come here to see what game you were playing yesterday (unless, of course, it has some relation to foreign languages, e.g. because you were playing it in Japanese or because it's Far Cry Primal).
No pseudoscience. Your theory about Sanskrit being the original language or Hungarian having evolved from Old Turkic has no place here.
No racism. This does not mean denying that every single person on the face of Earth is different and that different countries have different views of the world, some of which might (and are bound to) not get on well with yours. It means don't discriminate people based on where they come from or what language they speak.
No politics. If you're about to post any content that someone might feel is related to politics (like for example US English not being the "original English"), please don't post it. Don't post speeches or parts of speeches of political personalities either, not even to debunk their theories on linguistics. People are sensitive to this kind of stuff and we don't want to have arguments here.
