There’s a revolution happening in English, and the affixes are winning. They’re breaking free from their original words, declaring independence, and forming new allegiances.
“-cation” no longer belongs to “vacation”.
“-pocalypse” has abandoned “apocalypse”.
“-flation” has defected from “inflation”.

AI is helping reconstruct damaged Latin inscriptions
Google DeepMind and historians created an AI tool called Aeneas that can predict the missing words in Latin inscriptions carved into stone walls and pottery sherds from the ancient Roman Empire.

The word “hibernate” derives from the Latin word “hiems” ‘winter’, which would seem to imply that there’s a Latin-derived word for ‘summering’ as well—and there is!
May I present “estivate” (or “aestivate”), ‘to spend the summer in a certain place or doing a certain activity’. 😎

Why is it “humans” and not “humen”?
Because “man” and “human” are completely unrelated words!
“man” is a Germanic word that comes from Proto-Indo-European *man- ‘man’, but “human” is from Latin “humanus” ‘of man, human’, and comes from the Proto-Indo-European word *dhghem- ‘earth’!

Why do all languages have words for ‘this’ and ‘that’?
Researchers studied more than 1,000 speakers of 29 languages to see how they use demonstratives—words that show where something is in relation to the person talking (“this cat”, “that dog”).

At some point in the evolution of human language, our species transitioned from instinctual vocalizations to ones that had to be learned and passed down through culture rather than genetics. 🧵
