the default way for things to taste is good. we know this because "tasty" means something tastes good. conversely, from the words "smelly" and "noisy" we can conclude that the default way for things to smell and sound is bad. interestingly there are no corresponding adjectives for the senses of sight and touch. the inescapable conclusion is that the most ordinary object possible is invisible and intangible, produces a hideous cacophony, smells terrible, but tastes delicious. and yet this description matches no object or phenomenon known to science or human experience. so what the fuck

Nine, neun, negen

There are two types of words for 9 in the Germanic languages. Type 1 is g-less: there's German neun, Swedish nio, and Icelandic níu among others. Type 2 does have a g, as in Dutch negen, West Frisian njoggen, and Low Saxon negene. You'd think that English nine is type 1, but it used to have a g too: in Old English, it was nigon. It lost its g in Middle English. So did neun, nio and níu lost their g too? No, they've never had one. The g only evolved in the north-western branch of West Germanic. Words from other Indo-European branches, such as Latin novem, lack a g too. My new graphic tells you all about it.
