Lmao no
Makes sense when most of your nouns are of Latin origin
I like that plural for man is men
Latin plural is -i, -ae, -a
We retained this stem changing plural system for Germanic nouns
Mouse->mice
@Byzas Come in vocal in Info Orthodoxe
Iirc these are called strong verbs
Watching some TV my dude @Constantin le Lamantin
Something special going on?
No
Just saying Romans are heretics
The basics
high five
But it doesn't just add S
-os, -as, -es
I read somewhere something about Spanish and Italian using plural systems for different Latin cases
And Spanish never took over English, if we got it from something romance it was french
Italian goes o->i a->e
Les voyages sounds like lay voyage
Yeah but I'm suspecting the -s suffix plurals may have come from Normans
Maybe, but i don't see how it would have trickled into English considering they don't pronounce it and the lower class would probably have been illiterate
But again I have to look into that before I say for certain because I don't know much about Anglo Saxon grammar, especially regarding plurals
Well much of the upper level vocabulary is of Latin origin
Yup
So makes sense half our worlds would use a Latin derived plural system
Thanks to the rape of English by the Normans
For basic words every peasant knows, such as man, mouse, woman, we use an umlaut stem changing plural
And the rape of orthodoxy in England <:aaa:509492295599652864>
But for the Germanic word king we use kings
REEEE
cyning
Se Westseaxnas cyning, Æþelræd se unræd
Wessex/Westseaxna (west saxons)
Northumbria/Norþan Hymbra
Hey there is an extra space in my name
The Ireland Church was staying in Orthodoxy until the British King received the autorisation of the Pope to invade the island in order to reform that Church.
All of that before becoming Anglican.
British = Perfect guys
