I’m fascinated by “semantic fossils” that exist in the world I.e. where we use a phrase / word like “hot off the press”, “floppy disk icon”, “riding shotgun” or “horsepower” but we don’t use a shotgun in cars anymore, or horses for measuring power or floppy disks anymore One day, we’re going to be on another planet, and some kid who’s never been on earth is gonna wonder why some things are still measured in 365 days

There are sentence structures Irish people say that English speakers don't, because they borrow from Irish. ofc can't find an example right now
