The abbreviation 'no.' is from French 'numéro' meaning 'number'. This is different from the English word 'no' used for negation.

RE: https://toad.social/@wdlindsy/116471800574911741
there is no El Quijote without the emdash.
Cervantes had it published in 1605. that first chapter is considered THE MASTERPIECE of prose writing; and not just for its beauty. there’s whole polemics on his strategic use of the emdash and other orthographical marks because Cervantes literally established what we know as #prose #orthography with El Quijote.
technofascists have derided for so long the liberal arts ―to sell their lies of forever STEM jobs― that many are culturally illiterate.

Although I am easily distracted, it is never for nought. Today, I've been thinking of the orthography and morphology of Parsifal whilst trying to decide which version to run with.
My first 'real' encounter with Perceval was Chrétien de Troyes' unfinished version, but Wagner's version seems to have stuck with me.

An example of my Finnish-based orthography for British English (State Anthem of the Soviet Union):
Juunaitit voorevör in vrentsip änt leipör,
Aa maiti ripapliks vil evör intsuo.
Tii kreit Sovjet Juunjön vil liv truu tii eitsiis.
Tii triim ov ei piipöl, tee vootres sikjuo!(koorös:)
Lonk liv aa Sovjet matölänt,
Pilt pai tii piipöl's maiti hänt.
Lonk liv aa piipöl, juunaitit änt vrii!
Stronk in aa vrentsip trait pai vaa,
Lonk mei aa krimsön vläk inspaa,
Sainink in kloori voor ool men tuu sii!Truu teis taak änt stoomi vail kreit Lenin let as,

Is it just me and my neurodiverse brain, or does everyone notice minutiae like this – and then feel compelled to blog about it?
👉https://philosophics.blog/2026/01/26/enough-anough-and-the-archaeology-of-small-mistakes/?utm_source=masto&utm_medium=social
What sorcery is this? 🪄 I often catch myself typing 'anough' for 'enough'. It's also closer to how I pronounce it. I may adopt this spelling out of spite. Does this happen in other languages?
