I'm looking for the ZBBer who gave an excellent description of Catalan. I don't remeber exactly how it was but it just compared it to other Romance languages saying Catalan was always better. I just want to vote for him for the best quote of the year but I just can't find the thread where it's been ...

De nada !!! :mrgreen: I personnaly didn't know there were so many language who have double negation. Being French native and having the natural "ne + verb + pas" construction, I think it is good to 'pack' the verb between two negation forms... I've just remembered. Someone talks about arabic: Maghre...

Negation in French: "ne... pas" (although as it's been said, people now just say "...pas" "ne... plus" (any longer/anymore) "ne... point" (litterary) "ne... mie" (old) pas (step), plus, point (point), mie (half) are common words that have been added to the "ne" which seemed to be too much unsignific...

Una cosa que, d'altra banda, hauria de ser ben normal (aprendre la llengua del pa?s on es va a viure)... Mira, estic totalment d'acord amb tu sobre aquest punt. Jo porto dos anys vivint a Catalunya i no podia viure aqui sense aprendre l'idioma. Per? hi ha molta gent que considera que el catal? ?s n...

"L' ale li l'ho, Lou!" I don't understand this and I think there's some mistakes... But someone like Piero lo Monaco will know better than me... when we have two pronouns like gli+lo or gli+le we must say "glielo" or "gliele". In the case of "li" I don't remember but I think it also becomes "gli-"....

Re: No latin names of month...
A correction: Frunze was the Soviet-era name for the capital of Kyrgyzstan , not Tajikistan; it was named in honor of the early Bolshevik leader Mikhail Frunze . In 1991, it was renamed Bishkek (reflecting its pre-Soviet name of Bishkek/Pishpek). Frunze himself was born in pre-Soviet Bishkek, but w...

Re: No latin names of month...
I have trouble understanding what you mean. Croatian (or the Croatian version of Serbo-Croatian if you prefer) emphatically does not use Latin names, as the above list shows. Serbian (or the Serbian version of Serbo-Croatian) does use Latin names, as does Russian. The Serbian forms are januar, febr...

No latin names of month...
Hi ! We have a February topic. So why not doing one about names of month that don't come from the too famous latin names... I discovered years ago, that croatian (but not serbian) uses typical names for months and after that, I've found a quite nice list. Sometimes latin and typical names are used b...

Re: Catalan and Occitan comparisons!!!
I can't wait to see the comparisons between Catalan and Occitan!!! Unfortunately I've never come across a native speaker of Occitan in my life. Well, just one in Val d'Aran, but she quickly changed into Catalan. I'd like to learn Occitan because it would be like learning ancient Catalan; learning t...

What kind of word would fulfill the definition of 'portmanteauoid', though? A word that looks like a blend, but is etymologically a single morpheme, maybe.. anyone know any of those? Never seen a word like this in French... "porte-manteau" exists but its a composed word, made of the verb "porter" (...
