  • They're almost certainly just using one translation - probably KJV since I don't find any instances of "does" in that version, they would all be "doth" or "hast" most likely. I guess it's just a meme so it doesn't really matter if you half-ass it, but it's definitely not the best way of doing it.

    "Sex" is also definitely in the NIV and some other translations.

  • I have IBS and capsaicin has never been a trigger for me. I can eat spicy food all day and be fine, but if I even so much as look at a piece of romaine I'll be on the toilet all evening.

  • So, disclaimer here that I'm not a linguist, I just enjoy learning about linguistics.

    OED doesn't have a Norman ancestor for English wasp - it goes back through Old English (wæfs, wæps, wæsp) to Saxon and Middle German/Dutch all the way back to pre-Germanic.

    My guess here was that there's a common Proto-Indo-European ancestor and Wiktionary, FWIW, agrees - they provide a reconstructed P.I.E word: *wóbʰseh₂ (“wasp”)

    ETA: here's the link to the OED online's etymology page and a screenshot of it if you don't have access through your library.

  • It's called "metathesis". We did it over hundreds of years with 'bird' which was originally 'brid' or 'bridd', and 'wasp' which was originally 'waps', apparently.

  • Just seen the latest American Opinion polls.

  • This isn't even close to being true. 83% of black voters backed Harris in 2024, with 15% voting for Trump. That's notable because it's a significant decrease from Biden receiving 92% of the black vote, but whites are the only major racial group of which the majority voted for Trump in 2024.

  • Pretty sure this blog is fully ChatGPT text. All the signs are there, em dashes all over the place, "It's not just x; it's y", lists of adjectives. Also, this is basically just an ad.
