I'm reading about how in San'ani Arabic and Mehri voiced and emphatic sounds get glottalized allophonically as opposed to voiceless (aspirated) stops, and now I'm wondering if the "qalqala" described in tajwid books could refer to an ejective pronunciation instead of a regular

@PhDniX you know the classical descriptions of these sounds and ideas better than me, do you think this would make sense?

release of a stop, especially as ق is desribed as having mandatory qalqala as opposed to the other sounds in the group (a pattern matching that of south arabian languages exactly) and the fact the ك ت dont have qalqala (tho that could be explained as them having aspiration)

Call me crazy but this my preferred way to learn a language
Reminds me of this Basque grammar that demands a linguistics background to even get what the chapter headings are talking about. This is fun for spergs like me but this approach is hardly conductive to learning from scratch, it's more for people who know the language already.

Studying for a language acquisition exam rn and i remembered this, its really is cool how in an environment where the only ppl i hear speaking sylheti is my family, i ended up not acquiring the ending that my parents use but instead the one that my cousins who i only met around
Somehow, for the Sylheti 1st person present continuous ending, my family use /iar/, but I use /ram/, so like my parents /xoriar/ vs my /xorram/, and apparently the way i say it is the "rural" way, so idek how i picked that up

Its so interesting how we can even figure this stuff out
A simplified phylogenetic tree schematic to visually represent the recent findings on the emergence of modern humans. – It also shows ancient source components relevant for later groups (e.g. OOA-like, European or East Asian HGs, ANE, etc.), not modern populations...

Sudanese leaders, 19th-20thc. The Somali attire seems to have gained decent popularity among Sudanese leaders at the time. If you have more old pictures please quote the first message of this thread with them.
