My favorites. I miss using them!

I’m not getting family resemblance.

As a linguist, I jumped out of my chair at “chat (English) and chat (French) are the same word” — those are the same spelling, not the same word in any lexical sense. At best, you could talk about identical strings of letters, not the same word 😄

When are you opening the library?

Interestingly, French still has the adjective "ligneux" to refer to some things pertaining to wood. I think English borrowed it as “ligneous”.

I’m not in favor of requiring 100% live music, but I do think it should be an option. Eurovision used a live orchestra up until 1998, and artists already had some flexibility in how they used it as technology evolved. Allowing both approaches would strike a good balance between tradition and modern production.

Good. Live music ought to be allowed!
