I wish English had a word for the emotion you feel when someone is talking to you as if youve made a ridiculously infantile mistake (and you havent), or when theyve just shown you that you ARE stupid and keep talking to you like everything's normal, perhaps because they assume you're used to being ...

The Second Defenestration of Prague, rather. And actually, iirc there were a number of less famous Defenestrations of Prague before the first and between the first and second, that never made it into the Canonical Numbering for Defenestrations of Prague. It makes me wonder -- have any other cities ...

Resources on a number of early Indo-European languages, including Hittite, Sanskrit, Latin, Classical and New Testament Greek, as well as Old French, Gothic, and Old Iranian.
No Celtic languages, alas.

Dhana groups SA as nominative in active sentences and SP as nominative in passive sentences. PT also group together in active sentences, while R is split into two cases. So, I guess that makes Dhana active-dative. I once had a little sketch for a conlang that had a "second passive" voice, distinguis...

Hmmm...I notice all the romance SCs are from Vulgar Latin. Does anyone have the SCs from Classical Latin to Vulgar Latin? Well, this is a hairsplitting sort of technicality, but no. To be linguistically correct, Classical and Vulgar Latin were both co-existent daughters of a previous unified Latin....

I'd say that's more than a tidbit. :P Anyway, I've got some info on Nepālī. I don't think I can type in Devanagārī, so bear with me.
