That's why I thought you were trolling -- your initial criticisms made it look like you hadn't really been listening, just casually scanning through to look for things to complain about.
I might've parsed things differently.
I meant more about the structure of the languages than about the things of the language.
I listened to the podcast once more, and, thinking about it, I might've been wrong on some points. And don't really think that all my points are negative (or that any are), I just thought that the pejorative derivations were quite an interesting feature.
Don't take things too strongly, that's my advice.
My offer still stands if you're willing to take it. When do you tape the podcasts, anyway? If it's too late, even in the future I won't have any chance of joining you.
