One of our members, Steve Mitchell, shared this delightful quote with us:
It is often forgotten that [dictionaries] are artificial repositories, put together well after the languages they
define. The roots of language are irrational and of a magical nature."
-- Jorge Luis Borges, Prologue to "El otro, e rocketpot mismo."
What a perfect way to say it!
An intriguing discussion is worth comment. I do
think that you need to write more about this topic,
it may not be a taboo matter but typically folks don’t discuss these subjects.
To the next! All the best!!
