I am going to use conlanging as the carrot to get me through the housework I need to get done this morning. If I work really hard, I can make verb paradigms for Ratatattat. (Kind of a joke fauxlang).

One of my favorite things about learning about traditional textiles is the little ghosts they left in the language. Of course the ghosts are there, now that I know to look for them. Once upon a time, half the population spent a majority of their day making textiles. Spinning, at the very least, has been a part of humanity since the Neanderthals. That kind of knowledge doesn't just disappear.
A heckle was a device with sharp metal spikes, and people drag flax through the spikes to separate out the fibers from the chaff. When you say someone heckled a performer, you think you are being literal but you're speaking in an ancient metaphor.
When my grandpa says "spinning yarns" to mean telling stories, he knows that one's not quite literal, but its vividness is lost to him. There is no image in his mind of rhythm, muscle memory, and the subtle twist that aligns clouds of fibers into a single, strong cord.
When a fanfic writer describes someone carding their fingers through someone's hair, that's the most discordant in my mind. Carding is rough, and quick, and sometimes messy (my wool is full of debris, even after lots of washing). The teeth of my cards are densely packed and scratchy. But maybe that's my error, not the writer's. Before cards were invented, wool was combed with wide-toothed combs, and sometimes, in point of fact, with fingers. The verb "to card" (from Middle English) may actually be older than the tools I use, archaic as they are. And I say may, because I can't find a definitive history. People forget, even when the language remembers.
official linguistics post
What is the dynamic between a people whose language was gifted by the Gods and a neighbouring people whose language arose naturally?
It's hard for them to grasp the existence of phenomena like contronymy & polysemy; they feel themselves to live in a crisper, more pregiven world. The neighbors gain a lot of outsider cred for the younger generation for being able to invent new words without seeking ratification from the pantheon, and because of this there's a lot of import over time - especially for things like curses, which are originally the smallest group of words.
The words for numbers are also very different; it's hard for them to be sure they're both even talking about the same thing, since the divinely-gifted have numerals only in base e and quantify by analogy; a month's bunch of apples, a pantheon of actors. This lends itself to a kind of numerology when the two cultures interact - twelve by itself, abstracted from any individual case, is like a minute sans some hourglass or minute-long process, a free-floating measurement with no instrument, and the thought that all twelves are the same twelve ignites furious religious debate.

I need to write more.
I told my husband all about my Cursed Conlang Circus thing I am working on. By the time I was done describing it in excruciating detail, he looked ready to gnaw his own leg off to escape.

ââđśChristmas Music in Different Languagesđśââ
Hello! So, Iâve researched some Christmas music in different languages. Some have a lot, like, too much so I narrowed it down, and some donât have that much, but I found the best I could. Some are similar songs to what English speakers and Americans are used to such as âjingle bellsâ etc etc, while others are their own original seasonal songs. If itâs similar or the same song as traditional songs in English, Iâll put them in the parenthesis. So anyway, enjoy and happy holidays!Â

Babylonian era problems. (photo via tbc34)
old school hate mail
Imagine how pissed you have to be to engrave a rock
Ok but there was this guy called Ea-nasir who was a total crook and would actually cheat people ought of good copper and sell them shit instead. The amount of correspondences complaining to and about this guy are HILARIOUS.
Are you telling me we know about a specific guy who lived 5000 years ago, by name, because he was a huge asshole
More like 4000 years ago but yes. Ea-nasir and his dodgy business deals.
And we havenât even touched on the true hilarity of the situation yet. Consider two additional facts:
He wasnât just into copper trading. There are letters complaining about Ea-nasirâs business practices with respect to everything from kitchenwares to real estate speculation to second-hand clothing. The guy was everywhere.
The majority of the surviving correspondences regarding Ea-nasir were recovered from one particular room in a building that is believed to have been Ea-nasirâs own house.
Like, these are clay tablets. Theyâre bulky, fragile, and difficult to store. They typically werenât kept long-term unless they contained financial records or other vital information (which is why we have huge reams of financial data about ancient Babylon in spite of how little we know about the actual culture: most of the surviving tablets are commercial inventories, bills of sale, etc.).
But this guy, this Ea-nasir, he kept all of his angry letters - hundreds of them - and meticulously filed and preserved them in a dedicated room in his house. What kind of guy does that?
