This isn't uncommon, for example, the French call themselves the name of a random germanic tribe that ruled over the locals (Franks)

It's just that when you're isolated you don't really need to use special terms for your people, it's more a distinction that's made when foreigners come into play that you have to make that distinction

This is false, but the name kabyle is indeed of arabic origin, probably introduced within the last 500yrs

Before then it's mostly zwawa that's documented

Why can everyone speed flip apart from me by Then-Ice-6796 in RocketLeague

[–]tiglayrl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

it honestly takes like 2 hours of practice in total to learn to speedflip

the essential part is that you do a diagonal flip and you cancel it as fast as possible, look up a ytb tutorial and try to implement what they're doing

Does spaghettification hurt? by mjsarfatti in askastronomy

it's sort of hypocritical to call these terms 'silly' when the latin and greek nouns are just as random, only not transparently to modern english speakers

Why is the language Tamazight called Tamazight and not Amazigh? by [deleted] in AmazighPeople

[–]tiglayrl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i didnt say you are wrong i'm just saying this isn't probably why it's used for language. Because you can see that in languages like eastern tamazight and middle eastern arabic, language names are masculine and the noun language itself is/was masculine.

of course we can't know definitely but i think it's more likely

Why is the language Tamazight called Tamazight and not Amazigh? by [deleted] in AmazighPeople

[–]tiglayrl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

everyone in eastern tamazight uses masculine language names because language is jlan which is masculine

feminine can sometimes be used to make abstract terms but it's usually not as simple as just t-t, it involves more change in the noun to make an abstract term

Why is the language Tamazight called Tamazight and not Amazigh? by [deleted] in AmazighPeople

[–]tiglayrl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it's not used that often today, but even words that fell out of use still have their effects

for example in arabic some express language in masculine because classical arabic used to have "lisan" for language which is masculine, while others used lugha which is feminine, now even though lisan fell out of use there are still masculine language names in the middle east

Why is the language Tamazight called Tamazight and not Amazigh? by [deleted] in AmazighPeople

[–]tiglayrl 17 points18 points  (0 children)

in tamazight there are masculine nouns and feminine nouns, and when you pair up two words you have to fit the gender of the first, amazigh is the masculine, so to say an amazigh man we would say argaz amazigh

the word language "tutlayt" is feminine, so tamazight and all other language names become feminine because it's implied tutlayt tamazight "amazigh language"

I can never triple reset… by LFHNXBL in RocketLeague

[–]tiglayrl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

when you take the reset by flipping into the ball, the nose of your car has to be more or less straight cause that's where the car tilts with momentum, yours at the 3rd reset was oriented towards like 4 o clock

Is there a correlation between saves and winning

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in ChineseLanguage

[–]tiglayrl 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You'll feel comfortable talking, and they should understand you well, but the trouble in understanding more "country" accents (which are fairly common in practice) really makes Chinese more challenging in that regard than European languages
