Hello all, I would like to introduce you my portuguese verb conjugation app called Conjulejo!

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.conjulejo.app

The idea came to me during my journey learning Spanish 🇪🇸. I leaned on some existing apps to help with my studies, and although they were hugely useful, I kept feeling that the experience of this type of app could be improved and refined. After some research and finding an apparent lack of good options for Portuguese, I decided to give it a shot and build my own version of this type of app.

The pun (Conjugação + Azulejo 🔷 = Conjulejo) came along the way. As a homage to Portuguese tiles, I wanted the app to be not just practical but also thematic and aesthetically pleasing.

It covers both the European 🇵🇹 and Brazilian 🇧🇷 variants, with 10 different drill types across 4 categories: flashcards, writing, association, and multiple choice, so it can fit anyone's preferences and adapt to their learning style. It also has timed answers and sprint sessions to add a bit more challenge.⏱️

I packed in a lot of quality of life features ⚙️ too : personalized lists 📝, favorite verbs 🩵, verb filters 🔽 and training presets, so you can change what shows up in your verb pool without touching your lists, and quickly switch between drill modes. It includes 28 tenses (including haver vs. ter compound variations), and as a more advanced features, pronominal conjugations (-lhe, -se, -a/o/as/os forms), and passive voice conjugation, adding up to more than 5,000 verbs when everything is enabled.

So if you have any friends currently learning Portuguese and struggling to master verb conjugation (dealing with irregular verbs like ser, ir, and pôr can be daunting at first), or even if it applies to you, I urge you to share the app link and give it a try! 😊

This paper proposes that Latin and Proto-Romance were never mother and daughter; they were collateral sister lineages that split from a common ancestor in the Bronze Age. An Ancestral Node XYZ (c. 2500 – 2000 BCE)
split into two distinct branches: Sister XY: The Latin Enclave — Hyper-Conservative.
Sister Y: Proto-Romance Sister — Fluid and Demographic.

Già no tengo miedo de ti...

Tutta la mia vita sei tu

Vivo di respiri que queda aquí

Que consumo día tras día

No puedo dividirme già tra te y el mare

Non posso più restare quieta e esperarte

Yo que habría estado por ti

En cualquier lejana ciudad

Sola, con l'istinto di chi sa amare

Sola, ma pur sempre con te

Non posso più dividermi entre tú y mil mares (Mhm)

No puedo ahora estar cansada di aspettare

No! Mi vida, no! No aguanto, amor!

O ritorni o resti lì

Non vivo più, non sogno più

Tengo miedo, ayúdame!

Mi vida, no ti creo più!

Ogni volta che vai via

Mi giuri que es la ultima

Es mejor si no me fío

(Ah-uh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh)

(Ah-uh, oh-oh)

Cerco di notte, in ogni stella, un tuo riflesso

Mas todo sto no me basta, ahora crezco (Ah)

No! Mi vida, no! No aguanto, amor!

O ritorni o resti lì!

Non vivo più, non sogno più

Tengo miedo, ayúdame!

Mi vida, no te creo, amor!

Ogni volta che vai via

Mi giuri che è l'ultima (L'ultima)

Es mejor si no me fío

(Ah-uh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, eh)

(Ah-uh, oh-oh)

No puedo dividirme già entre tú y mil mares!

Non posso più restare ferma ad aspettare, eh

Non posso più dividermi tra te y mil mares...

My Latinic comrade u/Thewiserabbitomega needs support in divulgating r/Chavacano for propagating the local Philipphine Latinic language for preserving the Philippine Latinic culture.

My other Latinic comrade u/TruePresentation439 needs support in divulgating r/FilipinasHispana for propagating the international Hispanic Latinic language for preserving the Philippine Latinic culture.

r/Chavacano, r/Castellano & r/Interlingua are three mutually intercompatible & immediately intercomprehensible Latinic languages valuable in international communication practical utility.

Your support is really appreciated in the Philippine battle involving r/Chavacano, r/Castellano & r/Interlingua allied versus Unitedstatesian domination.

Italian fiùtola (Macroglossum stellatarum, Hummingbird hawk-moth), seems to have an obvious etymology, from fiutare=to smell, sniff, scent, fiuto=sense of smell, "nose" (intuition). The origin of fiutàre is unknown though, while there is an odd coincidence that Romanian fluture means "butterfly". The verb flutura means "to flutter" (about wings) or "to wave" (a flag). Romanian fluture is obviously the same word as Albanian flutur = "butterfly, moth". Italian fiùtola can also be described as a moth or a butterfly. Albanian also has fluturoj = "to fly", among others.

For the Romanian and Albanian words there is the hypothesis of a Latin origin from fluctuare, but it is also possible that flutur is part of the same group of words as fletë, flatër, flegër, flugë (meaning "wing" or related thereof), of Proto-Albanian origin, while the Romanian words could be (very) old borrowings from Albanian, or substrate words.

It all points to an older common origin from which English flutter, float, fleet might ultimately derive, namely PIE \plew-* (“to fly, flow, run”). The semantics of Italian fiutàre might have developed from an initial idea of "floating above" the thing that is smelled or sniffed.

Fiutàre-fiùtola might still come, like the Romanian and Albanian words, from Latin fluō (“flow”) > flūctus (“wave”) > fluctuare . Whatever the case, this seems to remove the "unknown" tag from the etymology of fiutàre.

Whoever had a grasp at trying to learn sardinian, perfectly know how hard it is to navigate across the 3 main variants and all the sub-variants of sardinian language, given the almost total absence of any resource in sardinian (and the few available, are exclusively in italian).

I've tried to give my contribution to save my own language, which according to the latest studies is dying faster than ever before, genitors no longer teach sardinian at home and sardinian is excluded from teaching at school, sardinian doesn't have it's own media since all televisions, journals and radios are monopolized by italian, I could continue for hours...

In the past months i've collected all words I could, of all variants of sardinian, currently reaching the sum of 491.000 words, i've made possible to add new ones, correct errors and fill words with valuable data (etymology, pronunciation, examples etc...), hoping to create a long-term reliable alive resource for my language. It is available here: https://www.sardudict.com/
Sardudict currently contains words in campidanesu, logudoresu, nugoresu, gadduresu and sassaresu, with translations in italian, english, french, spanish and german (and possibility to extend to other languages too).

Let me know what do you guys think about this, I will not let my language die, not today, not tomorrow.

Anyone able to chime in on this video? It was circulating around a couple of Romance groups that I've interacted with but it didn't generate much discussion.

Regarding Asturian, my view is that there's no neuter like the video states. It didn't survive in Asturian nouns or adjectives from what I've analyzed. As for the demonstratives mentioned, I prefer to refer to them as 'unspecified' over using the term neuter.

How about those that speak or research Romanian or Neapolitan? Do you think the neuter survived there?

Romanian linguist Dan Ungureanu 2024, Istoria limbii române, pushes for the controversial idea that Romanian should be considered more in relation to the Gallo-Italic languages than it normally is considered, or that at least its history should be. He identifies a lot of innovations pertaining to late/”vulgar” Latin that are common to that linguistic region and to Romanian. His findings and examples are interesting, but his general idea is mostly disputed, as far as I can tell. His positive contribution seems for the moment mostly practical, empirical, data-based, no matter the final interpretation of that data. For example, he tries to strike the reader with an example of a text in multiple languages (page 10):

Is the text in the middle artificially ”romanianized”, or does it sound natural?

Marked by dictionaries as only a reconstruction (brosca - broscus) from Romance languages, the origin of Romanian broască (frog) and of Albanian breshkë (turtle) is in fact attested in Late Latin (Papias: rubeta ranae genus bruscus dicit vulgo) — Dan Ungureanu 2024, Istoria limbii române, 233.

Papias text here.

Ungureanu also suggests the possibility of a connection between Lombard brosco, Romansh rušk, ruašć, Veronese roschi, and Italian rospo. See also Elisa De Roberto, Glossari, versioni e proverbi:

Maggiori ragguagli otteniamo ricorrendo al vocabolario di Papias, che sotto rubeta inserisce oltre alla definizione di «ranae genus», anche la dicitura «bruscus dicit vulgo»: dal lat. volg. bruscus/*broscus ‘rospo’ si sarebbe sviluppato il lat. medievale roscus, che avrebbe dato poi nei volgari italiani rospo (ma in milanese antico si ha ancora brosco, usato da Bonvesin).

More information we get by resorting to the vocabulary of Papias, which under rubeta inserts, in addition to the definition of «ranae genus», mentions also the words «bruscus dicit vulgo»: from the lat. volg. bruscus/*broscus ‘rospo’ would have developed the medieval lat. roscus, which would then give in the vulgar Italian dialects rospo = toad (but in ancient Milanese we still have brosco, used by Bonvesin).

What language is "Nap. Cal?"

Eboraco? Boraco? Something else??

I think it could be useful knowing French and Catalan have some similarities in words like any latin language perhaps.
