Re: (L&N) Q&A Thread - Quick questions go here

If Latin evolved more similarly to Greek, would it look more like Spanish or Italian? See also Latin "evolving" as in Latin changing from after the birth of Jesus to the 1700s? Or Latin evolving as in from 1000 BC to 100 AD? What I meant is evolving into Modern Day but not splitting into ...

Re: sQwedgepad

An example of a word with an aspirate is θερτθουν <thertthun> /θɛɾtʰun/ < ζερεθον /zdɛɾɛtʰon/ <θ> standing for both /θ/ and /tʰ/ is kind of confusing... Uhh, it doesn't? I guess there's a hypothetical scenario where you get /θː/ <θθ>, or /ttʰ/ <τθ>. I'm still confused... :/ Unless I'm misinterpreti...
