Morphosyntax / How far can you smurf language?
« Last post by Befuddled on January 31, 2022, 09:12:06 AM »
Or, to put in another smurf, how smurf could you smurf smurf before smurf becomes unsmurfable? It smurfs to me that as long as smurf is undersmurfed, you can smurf smurf smurfingly smurf. On the other smurf, if a smurf smurfs to you, "Smurf over smurf! There's a smurf in the smurf!" That is unsmurfly to smurf your smurf.

So I suppose what I'm smurfing is, at what smurf can smurf be smurfed?

Hi, Rock100,

революционен is not a Russian word. It is a word from another language.

https://bg.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D0%A4%D1%80%D0%B5%D0%BD%D1%81%D0%BA%D0%B8_%D1%80%D0%B5%D0%B2%D0%BE%D0%BB%D1%8E%D1%86%D0%B8%D0%BE%D0%BD%D0%B5%D0%BD_%D0%BA%D0%B0%D0%BB%D0%B5%D0%BD%D0%B4%D0%B0%D1%80


= = =

There are many Russian words with -anna but without -anen. This is not logical.

> If there is not an -anen word in a Russian or Slavic dialect/language
It was your claim originally. I was just unable to come up with a non-taboo example but I did feel the -anen is pretty valid in Russian. It appears that many –ция–nouns produce adjectives the –anen way (but not all of them).

Language-specific analysis / Re: I need your help with the place of "the third time"

Welcome Michael!

Administrative point: I'm very sorry, but the spam filter caught your account, because it followed patterns similar to recent waves of spammers. You didn't do anything wrong, but can you please sign up again? I'll make sure your account remains active this time.

Short answer to your question: they mean the same thing. Longer answer: there may be a subtle distinction in emphasis between the two variants, but it's hard to determine that without context. Regardless, the difference would be small.

(Of course it's possible that Jesus said to Peter: "The third time you did this...", etc., that "the third time" would be part of what was said, rather than the third time saying it, but that's a very different meaning of course.)

Language-specific analysis / I need your help with the place of "the third time"
« Last post by michaelwwww on January 24, 2022, 01:12:37 AM »
Dear everyone,

I am not a native English speaker and would like to know whether the meaning of "The third time Jesus said to Peter xxx" is the same as "Jesus said to Peter the third time XXX'". I am wondering whether the gammar demands that the content of the third saying is the same as the first two. Could any one help me?

Thanks!
Michael

Hi, Rock100,


_an means that the word (any word, morphology does not matter here) ends in

 vowel + n.

- - -

1.
цена = цен- (root) + -a
/-en is a part of the root/


2.
revolution = revolvō +‎ -tiō

https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/revolutio#Latin



-tio (-on is a part of the suffix)

https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/-tio#Latin

_______________________________

r  e v o l  u  t   i (-on)
р е в о л ю ц и (-я)

революция = революцион + ен = революционен + (-ый; -ая; -ое; -ые) = революционный; революционная; революционное; революционные


= = =


If there is not an -anen word in a Russian or Slavic dialect/language (old or contemporary) then there must not be an -anna word.
