I want to do something like Jennifer Dewalt but I don't know shit about HTML or CSS or Javascript or whatever. Can you point me to the right direction /prog/?
You might need to translate that for me, the dictionary didn't helpI was trying to say (more or less): "If spoken and written language are the same thing, then I'm writing this in English, right?"
were just the Roman alphabet adapted to new languages,Latin, but OK. And you technically mean Indo_European, but yeah.

Yeah, okay, there are characters which signify different things in different contexts. We have those in English spelling too. How do you pronounce "read?" What does it mean when you pronounce it that way? What if you pronounce it the other way?Latin, but OK.People call it both "Roman" and "Latin." You know exactly which alphabet I'm talking about, regardless of which name I use.
And you technically mean Indo_EuropeanWhat? Do you mean to say that "being written in the Roman alphabet" is part of the definition of language in the Indo-European family? Sanskrit, Farsi, and Russian are Indo-European, but they use other writing systems. Vietnamese uses the Roman alphabet. Japanese is not related to Chinese, whereas Tibetan is — but instead of Chinese characters, Tibetan uses a Brahmic script.
Writing systems have nothing to do with language families. They are unrelated concepts in linguistics.Agreed. Why did >>41,43,51,64 bring spoken languages into the subject, when we were talking about constructed languages, and how they are an awesome inception, like computer ones are?
Not all languages have morpheme.AAAARGGGHHH!!!
Some languages, like the ones I mentioned, were only used in the written form, like math.[b][i]AAAAAARRRRGGGHHHHHHH!!!!![/i][/b]
Why did >>41,43,51,64 bring spoken languages into the subjectYou mean >>48,51,64? Because >>41 and >>43 weren't me.
but you could not hold a conversation in math.Maybe your tiny whitey brain can't, but that don't mean you should generalize to other people.
You can communicate information using math, but you could not hold a conversation in math.And like >>80 said, it so possible, there's a group that does just that:
There's pretty much no way you could ever use a log of pine in an application which calls for a log of an IRC channel.
