ai boosting fans actually about football okay so this post is a bit off topic and not at all serious but sometimes your brain conceptualises a dumb idea and you just have to see it through in order to excise it from your consciousness around a decade or so ago there was a viral post going around the internet about what football continue reading ὣς φάτο ἡσίοδος thus spoke hesiod a small project that i ve started doing for fun and to be frank give me a small outlet in this current moment of being between jobs is an account i ve made over on bluesky posting a line by line translation of hesiod s theogony for the non hellenists out there a roughly seventh to sixth century bce short epic the indo european cognate relationships dataset scientific data 12 1541 this is somewhat old news since the dataset v1 0 has already been available since the publication of the analysis paper in science two years ago but since that paper was finally published we mainly cormac anderson and paul heggarty who wrote most of the paper finally have been able to publish the indo european cognate relationships how much pre greek is there in the greek lexicon proportionally it has been long recognised that the lexicon of ancient greek contains a substantial proportion of vocabulary from non greek sources that is often referred to as pre greek questions over the nature of whatever pre greek or several pre greek languages was or were left aside estimations vary over the relative proportion of prehistoric loanwords to inherited vocabulary a new paper in science and introducing the ie cor database it feels like it has been a very long time since i first met paul heggarty at the mcdonald institute in cambridge during the summer of 2015 to chat about joining what was supposed to be a simple one year project to revise the ielex dataset used in the indo european phylolinguistic studies bouckaert et al 2012 out now the aeolic dialects of ancient greek a study in historical dialectology and linguistic classification i was waiting for my author copies to arrive before making an official blog post announcing the publication so i could include some pretty photographs of the real physical thing but it has been out for a month now and it is officially orderable from the publisher s website and i feel the need to make may 31 2023 in uncategorized the proverbs of solomon in sahidic coptic over the easter break besides reviewing and returning the second proofs of my forthcoming book yay i decided to relax your definition of relax might differ by finally getting a start on another project that i d been threatening to do for a little while i have been wanting to do a linguistic study of the april 12 2023 in uncategorized indo european etymological dictionaries for the perplexed baltic baltic is one of the branches of indo european that i am not quite so familiar with so there remains the possibility that i may have missed something obvious from this instalment of indo european etymological dictionaries for the perplexed the situation is not particularly helped by the fact that many of these etymological dictionaries are in august 16 2022 in uncategorized introduction to indo european linguistics and culture textbooks for the perplexed so i was tagged in a tweet yesterday and okay since i was tagged i too am willing to give my own opinions but i think twitter is not really the most productive format for listing off various reading recommendations and putting on some nuanced commentary on where they are good what their shortcomings are august 4 2021 in uncategorized hieroglyphic luwian in fallout 4 as you may have guessed on the basis of some of the blog posts over the last year i ve been coping with pandemic isolation by spending a lot more time on gaming and i ve been keeping an eye out for archaeological and linguistic curiosities i find along the way the latest completely unexpected thing i ve march 16 2021 in uncategorized new article
