it is all a bit of a wonderful mind**** really, isn't it?
It's such a shame when these beautiful languages (which are almost like animals, having adapted to their environment) and just bulldozered by globalization and the idea that everyone should know English......
It's verb conjugation and noun declension
I think formalities in language are so interesting. Though, interestingly in Greek, a slave addresses his master with the same grammar a master would address his slave. I think in China too (I don't know a lot a about the Sino-Tibetan group, so shoot me if I'm wrong
) certain characters could never be written if the ruling emperor had these characters in his name. What's really strange is that New Persian had NO GENDER, although Sanskrit and the rest of the Indic branch does.... Wow, language is so complex and powerful....be still my beating heart
Let's just say I wouldn't be at all surprised
