Which sounds wholesome (and I don't say it's not at all) until you realize Nichols wanted to do something else, I think it was musicals, and King convinced her by saying "we need you to have representation. When you're gone, anyone can take that position, even an alien" and so she stayed instead of self realization.

German has a word for it: historisch gewachsen
Now that I think about it: Yiddish is traditionally written in Hebrew script but also in Latin. I don't know if the Latin is "just" a transliteration but I think both are standardized (which wouldn't mean it's not a transliteration)
All the species of the unicorn clade, well done
Oh, I feel you. People say they like Doctor Who, yet they never watched An Unearthly Child. Pathetics.
Forget about 6, 5 is fine, sure, watch it first, why not
I think I remember watching a YouTube video about different systems. There are more exotic ones beyond the 12h/24h binary
Don't mind the first 4, the best one is Babylon 7
Which one?
I had a little bit of contact with Sumerian myself in university (you might have guess from my username). I was in the Applied Computer Linguistics group in a project that translated Sumerian into English (with AI but before it was cool). The takeaway was that it's too little data to really train the neurol network properly but since most of the tablets were just which king owns how much cattle and stuff, it could handle it (I, for the record, don't own any cattle)
I sadly didn't learn too much about Sumerian. I know it's highly agglutinative and a language isolate. We had an Old Orientalist in the team and it was always cool to hear about and see cuneiform and how it developed over time and was used differently in different languages
It's more often the other way around: Aliens came to the Sumerians. Read with a certain lense, the Sumerian creation myth sounds like genetic manipulation. Wake up. I met a guy like this in real life once
No, pretty sure it's Lake
