Svenska Akademiens ordbok, I am kissing you on the mouth

[gubbanarkist]

Tänk inte efter nu, eller leta efter vad man lärde sig i skolan är rätt, det är jag ointresserad av. Bara hur du faktiskt pratar. Vet du inte hur du ska räkna ut kan man kolla under readmore.

Man kan testa ganska enkelt - om du säger både "en" och "ett", den och det, så använder du mer än ett kön (det finns dialekter i Finland där allt är 'ett' -skoget, höget, vagnet, osv). Om du dessutom skulle säga "den lille pojken" men "den lilla flickan" särskiljer du också maskulint och feminint, och använder tre kön till vardags, vilket är vanligt (särskilt bland de äldre) i lantliga dialekter över hela Sverige, från norr till söder, men har varit officiellt "fel" enligt svenska akademien i mer än hundra år. Mig veterligen finns det inga dialekter som har fler grammatiska kön än så, men om du skulle använda mer än det så får du gärna skicka ett meddelande och berätta, vore jätteintressant.

Cultura Ætatis nyhetsbrev i dag handlar om:

Varför vågar inte P3 Dokumentär ta bladet från munnen i programmet om Sara Danius och krisen i Akademien? Utan att ställa de svåra frågorna kommer händelserna aldrig att kunna förstås utifrån de verkligt bakomliggande problemen. Vi lyfter på locket.

Går det att tränga bakom den officiella bilden av Ari Behn, författaren och kronprinsessan Märtha Louise make - och av den bild han gav av sig själv. Ja, under vissa speciella omständigheter - som den vi berättar i nyhetsbrevet.

Vem ordnar en skönhetstävling i en belägrad stad? Andra delen i vår vindlande serie om hur de som bekämpar antisemitism och de som är antisemiter tillsammans försvårar vår förståelse av historiska skeenden.

Detta plus erbjudanden och naturligtvis vår populära Super-Kultur-Quiz men hela fyra böcker i potten denna vecka.

Missa inte Sveriges skarpaste kulturbevakning. Nyhetsbrevet som är din kulturbilaga hela veckan.

I nästa nyhetsbrev: Kultursvep Europa. Vilken riktning tar Franrike? Blir det amerikansk mat och bilder istället för text? Spanien står inför ett riktigt intressant kulturkrig och Italiens fascister delar den svenska värdegrunden.

Número de palavras por idioma

Número de palavras por idioma Esta lista está incompleta; você pode ajudar expandindo-a. Esta é uma lista de dicionários considerados autoritativos ou completos por número aproximado de palavras totais, ou headwords, incluídas. Número de palavras por idioma Estes números não levam em conta entradas com sentidos para diferentes classes de palavras (como substantivo e adjetivo) e homógrafos. Número de palavras por idioma Embora seja possível contar o número de entradas em um dicionário, não é possível contar o número de palavras em um idioma. Ao compilar um dicionário, um lexicógrafo decide se a evidência de uso é suficiente para justificar uma entrada no dicionário. Esta decisão não é a mesma que determinar se a palavra existe.

just had the harrowing realization that people who do not live in sweden are not intimately acquaintanced with the nobel prize in literature committee drama

[everythingroyalty]

What do you think of Crown Princess Victoria's fashion style? She's been doing that short tapered leg trouser with ankle boots thing for a while now with the blazers, but I don't think it flatters her so much. Her dresses for last year's Nobel events were pretty bizarre as well. I love her, and she's always so engaging & enthusiastic about her work, but sometimes her clothes just don't do it for me.

Ugh, this got lost in my inbox, sorry 😩

I’m really not particularly interested in fashion, so unless someone’s is wearing an outfit I really like (or they look really good in), I don’t actually pay that much attention to what they’re wearing. Victoria doesn’t really stand out to me. Often, she ends up looking a bit square BUT as a homo, I do appreciate the frequency with which she opts for a power suit.

I will also say, her dresses for last year’s Nobel, though bold, big and not particularly pretty, are very dear to me as they were a tribute to the late Sara Danius who ended up quitting Svenska Akademien (who award the Nobel Prize in Literature) after the scandal in 2017-2018.

The Svenska Akademiens ordbok is the Swedish version of the Oxford English Dictionary. According to the dictionary, the Skvader’s name is a combination of words just like that of the Jackalope. The Skvader’s prefix skva- comes from 'skvattra' meaning “quack or chirp” and the suffix -der comes from 'tjäder' meaning “wood grouse”.
