A Rádio Universitária (96.9), etéreo zéfiro do dial macapaense, acaba de me lembrar do saudoso Pagode da Amarelinha. Como cantei essa letra no karaokê de casa quando era criança…

Yes, I'm back

I can't believe it, it was 6 years. But I'm back to tumblr. I'm very desperate right now :( Last years were very hard for me. I lost a lot of time because of health issues. Then I lost my Boosty with all the people who followed me there (got the new page back now, but not followers). After that, Twitter’s algorithms completely ruined my reach, my works barely get any likes now.Not to mention, far fewer people commission art these days because of AI everywhere. Compared to last year, I have drastically fewer commissions. I know I can't compete with AI, and that soon I'll have to look for another job. But I don't want to give up on the work I love so much just yet! So, yeah, if anyone reading this needs art, please consider me! My art may not be the greatest, but it has no AI. I put a lot of soul into it. And I respect all of my clients. Anyone who worked with me can confirm it. Also, I always will be grateful for donations/tips on my boosty: https://boosty.to/autumnsakura

📻 Good evening, everyone. I took my radio to the leisure centre where I used to play football up to some years ago — need to get back in shape soon. This is a bit of Gilberto Gil's "Andar com Fé" on the shortwaves of Rádio Nacional da Amazônia (11780 kHz).

Axing for metathesis

There are people who stigmatise the use of to ax as a variant of to ask. However, to ax is at least 1200 years old. It stems from Old English ācsian with /ks/, a very frequent variant of āscian with /sk/. Later, in Middle English, writers such as Chaucer used both axen and asken. The /ks/ forms were perfectly normal until people started to discredit them – and, sadly, those who use them.

Swapping two sounds, as happened with /sk/ > /ks/, is a process called metathesis. My infographic shows more examples of metathesis in English and some of its Germanic sister languages. Dutch became the absolute queen of metathesis during the Middle Ages.

Next time, we’ll look at metathesis in the Romance languages.

About to ask/ax/: Old English āscian/ācsian came from Proto-West Germanic *aiskō(ja)n (‘to claim; to demand’). This verb also produced Dutch eisen (‘to demand; to claim; to require’), West Frisian easkje (id.), and German heischen (‘to request; to implore’). The German word owes its h to influence from the verb heißen, one of its meanings being ‘to order’. *Aiskō(ja)n and its descendants are related to Russian иска́ть (iskátʹ, ‘to seek’), Lithuanian ieškóti (‘to seek; to search’), and Sanskrit इ॒च्छति॑ (iccháti, ‘to desire; to seek’).
