AWAD - basilect by Wordsmith Org

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.

AWAD - approbation by Wordsmith Org

When we feature a word, we include one or more examples from a published work. The point is to show that it's a word in actual use. This week we are showing those words in use, not in transient writing, but in lines that we quote again and again, sometimes over hundreds of years.

Consider these a bonus THOUGHTS FOR TODAY. We'll feature examples from the works of Richard Steele, John Donne, Emily Dickinson, Shakespeare, and Norman Angell.

Today's word is approbation, from Latin approbation, from ad- (toward) + probatus, from probare (to test the goodness of). Earliest documented use: 1393.

"Whenever you commend, add your reasons for doing so; it is this which distinguishes the approbation of a man of sense from the flattery of sycophants and admiration of fools."

- Richard Steele; The Art of Conversation; The Spectator; 1711.

Learn more about today's word at: wordsmith.org/words/approbation.html

Everyone is welcome to offer a language activity at VIRTLANTIS. We provide free resources and ongoing support. We also collaborate with and promote other language communities in Second Life.

In addition to our main island and the various social meeting points at Knowingly, we have additional locations which can be used when needed.

If you are interested in participating in any of our current activities or would like to offer your own language activity, feel free to contact us in-world, on Facebook, on Skype or via e-mail: info@virtlantis.com.

NEW!

In addition to providing our main island as a free resource, we now have a second island which can be used for special language or culture related events such as presentations, workshops, seminars, roundtables, conferences, demos, concerts and parties!

Our new "Paradise Island" can be used free of charge by anyone who needs a private or public space for a large event (maximum 20 avatars). We gladly provide additional support and resources on an as needed basis. We can also modify the look and feel of the island to help create the ideal atmosphere for your event.

*To reserve and make use of Paradise Island, simply send an e-mail to info@virtlantis.com or contact Kip Yellowjacket or Abraxas McAndrews in-world.*
