Taking the kneeling shooting position very often (happens in infantry field exercises) wears out the fabric of the right knee (left for left-handed people) and it would be a waste to throw the trousers away. Better make shorts.

My daughter compared ticket prices for opera and musical stage productions in my hometown and New York and Tallinn and was surprised at the tenfold difference. A quick and dirty calculation shows that the US has an opera house for each 2.7m people and Estonia for 0.7m people.

Welsh. More daily users, which should mean more content. Might also benefit relatively more from a status boost of adding another L2 speaker.

It seems very sad to me that Baltic Studies is a field that barely exists in the UK. There are language courses run by SSEES (and its two Baltic professorships) and Glasgow's Baltic Research Unit (focussed on international relations and modern history), but that's about it

If five editors have questioned something out of the ordinary someone has written, it has to be something worth keeping. I have sometimes regrettably failed to live up to this rule but I promise I will be bolder in the future.

I would look into the affair between Vietnam and Cambodia but I guess it is not a good example about functioning states and is an extreme outlier in many senses.

Soomes peaks ju umbes samasugune paari suure meediamaja ja rahvusringhäälingu oligopol olema. Ma ei kujuta ette, kas praegu nii väikeses keeles suurem konkurents võimalik oleks. Õhtuleht on veel paberi peal õnneks.
