Today's word is basilect, which comes from Latin basis + dialectus (dialect). Earliest documented use: 1965.

 

There’s a saying: A language is a dialect with an army and a navy. It was popularized by the sociolinguist Max Weinreich. The idea is that what we call a “dialect” is not any less grammatical or in any way inferior to a “language”. The distinction has more to do with other factors, such as the social status accorded by the political and economic might of its speakers.

 

For example, the reason the flavor of English spoken around London or French spoken around Paris is considered “standard” is not because there’s something special about them. It’s because people in that area have more power. In reality, we all speak a dialect. The opposite of basilect is acrolect, the most prestigious variety of a language. In the middle is mesolect.

The plaque for Bishop MacEachern's monument has the below passage in four languages: English, French, Scots Gaelic, and Mi'kMaq.

 

"Angus Bernard MacEachern (1759-1835), first Bishop of the Diocese of Charlottetown, founded St. Andrew's College, the first post-secondary institution in the colony, on 30 November 1831. In January 1855, the college was re-located and re-opened in Charlottetown as St. Dunstan's College (later University), which has carried on the rich tradition of Roman Catholic education in the province."

...but CO-mingled.

 

I suspect that once back at the depot an awful lot of re-mingling goes on. I'm rather agin the triage at a domestic level - fine if you have the space but most of us don't - best done on an industrial scale.

 

Anyway, let that pass, excellent use of the word mingle here.

 

And don't get me started on the growth of inappropriately sized dust carts....now where are my gorblimey trousers?
