what happened in roughly 1870 though

why was there temporary internet

with a few people searching for pokemon?

It’s a search of Google books, but the question still stands, what the Fuck happened in 1870

I CAN ANSWER THIS!!

In the Cornish dialect of English, Pokemon meant ‘clumsy’ (pure coincidence).

In the mid 1800s there was a surge of writing about the Cornish language and dialect in an attempt to preserve them with glossaries and dictionaries being written. I wrote about it HERE.

I just love that this post happened to find the ONE HUMAN ON THE INTERNET who had the answer to this question

Faith in the Internet: FUCKING RESTORED.

Why I never learned Finnish

SOBAKA! (un cane)
….sobaka, sobaki, sobake, sobaku, sobakoj, sobake.

NOW THE PLURAL!
Sobaki, sobak, sobakam, sobak (perché è essere vivente, quindi è uguale a genitivo – ma non al singolare, perché è femminile) sobakami, sobak.

PERO’:
ODNA (1) sobaka
DVE (2 – però al femminile, non DVA – maschile) sobaki
TRI sobaki
CHETYRE (4) sobaki
PJAT’ (5) sobak (perché lo schema è: 1 + nominativo, 2,3,4 + genitivo singolare, 5 in su + genitivo plurale)

E ovviamente, se il numero termina in 2-3-4, genitivo singolare.

Quindi voi dite che avete 22 GODA (anno al genitivo singolare) e poi dai 25 in poi entrate nel tunnel di LET (anni al genitivo plurale).

@gigiopix, soddisfatto?
