"On touche à un pronom, au système de la langue. Or, les pronoms n'ont pas changé depuis le IVe siècle." 🤯 j'ai littéralement écrit une thèse doctorale là-dessus. Non, c'est faux, y a PLEIN de changements & même si c'était vrai, c'est pas un bon argument.

Started YOU season 4. Can someone explain how Joe got hired as a *professor* with no supporting statement, journal article, conference presentation and no network? Joke aside, can we stop depicting professors as people who earn enough to live in a HUGE flat in the centre of Ldn?

“[language X] is one of the richest languages linguistically” is a dangerous statement, on top of being false. And if your supporting evidence is “it’s complex because this word contains 26 characters”, you’re simply not doing linguistics
