Doctor Who • Audio Dramas
Anyway, the next 4 audio dramas look like they'll be more interesting.
And then I'll have listened to 50 audio dramas!
Wow!
@BatElite good morning, Bat!
Doctor Who • Audio Dramas ░ Main Range 23: Project: Twilight
This story is already incredibly gruesome and dark, and then it had to go to "vampires".
And then even worse: they establish that vampires were real beforehand, and that the genetic experiments were just on converting soldiers into vampires (so that they'd be essentially immortal).
I wouldn't have minded them doing that.... if they hadn't already done **so much** paranormal stuff already
Doctor Who • Audio Dramas ░ Main Range 23: Project: Twilight (Spoilers!)
me, a few days ago: ah good it looks like there aren't any paranormal stories for a while
project twilight episode 1: this is a story about genetic engineering!
project twilight episode 3: it turns out that this genetic engineering was actually creating...... vampires!!!!!
me: oh for goodness sake

formal methods
huh... I'm in the mood to do some formal methods stuff again...
@BatElite @Felthry for your "impossible" question — it depends on what happens.
It can become two words "im possible", but it won't become a compound.
A more likely scenario is that "im" could become what's known as a clitic.
I intentionally avoided mentioning clitics because they make this whole thing more complicated: in some ways they act like words, but in other ways they act like affixes.
I think the wikipedia articlemight be able to explain it: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clitic
@BatElite @Felthry oh yeah, so things go in both directions.
grammatical affixes can slowly turn into grammatical words, and grammatical words can turn into grammtical affixes.
We can also end up with words that were originally synthetic (so there's a root word and an affix), but because the affix has fallen out of use, it's now just a compound word.
re: more stuff about polysynthetic languages
@Felthry @BatElite I was going to quote the greenlandic word illu-lior-poq
illu is a root meaning house
lior is another root, meaning build
poq is a grammatical affix meaning "she does"
so illuliorpoq is "she builds a house".
(as I mentioned: it's harder to tell the difference between compounding and polysynthesis, and it requires a linguistic analysis that I couldn't possibly fit in a toot — so you'll have to trust that this isn't compounding)
