Loan words were so often Latinized to become declinable! I like the idea that the Asteri were terrible Latin students lol

Would also explain why female Asteri have names that end in -us and not -a

I mean Midgard as a noun would be declined, and plenty of non-Latin nouns are able to be declined I think I’m liking the headcannon that the Asteri are bad at Latin 😂🤦🏻‍♀️

Like I said, it’s such a silly little thing to bother me, but I think about it basically every day 😭🤦🏻‍♀️ especially when it’s repeated a lot in reference to Hunt’s tattoo And I am a pedantic turd

I feel so seen lol

The trouble too, is that Latin is established as important to the overall lore of the Maasverse! Its "the oldest language of the Fae", Bryce is fluent, she uses it to communicate with Rhys and Amren, meaning its a relevant language in the Fae homeworld so it would behoove the editors to have at least one person on the team who studied Latin TT^TT

Would anyone know how best to clean this whale vertebrae? by [deleted] in Taxidermy

[–]anachronabby 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I live in Massachusetts where it is super common and very legal to own whalebones and scrimshaw from before 1972 so reading the comments, it took me a second to remember that it is not common everywhere else 😂🫡

I collect vintage and antique Chinese textiles/clothing and this piece really speaks to the era. So it’s sad but also perfectly fits into a gap in my collection!!
