 Chinese language   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
Few linguists would seriously hold that Cantonese and Mandarin are the same language in the way they use the term, but for the popular classification of a speech variety as a language or dialect, linguistic considerations are often not as important as cultural or nationalistic ones.
As with many areas that have been linguistically diverse for a long time, whether the speech of a particular area of China should be considered a language in its own right or a dialect of another is not always clear, and many of the languages do not have sharp boundaries between them.
Most linguists classify all of the variations of Chinese as part of the Sino-Tibetan language family and believe that there was an original language, called Proto-Sino-Tibetan, similar to Indo-European languagesProto Indo-European/, from which the Sinitic and Tibeto-Burman languages descended.

 Yet Another Logical Language
The seer (the subject of the sentence, in classical terminology) is indicated by the particle jin, whereas what is seen (the object of the sentence) is indicated by dys; note that the same particle dys served to indicate who was sleeping and now serves to indicate what is seen.
The verb ganbon means “to fear” or “to frighten” according to the way it is used: the particle jin indicates the cause of the fear, whereas the particle dys indicates who is afraid.
Just as tis is the “converse” of dys, there is wos which is the “converse” of jin: we have already mentioned ganbon kelgir jin, “the dog is frightening”, so reversing the terms we have kelgir ganbon wos, “the frightening dog”.

As a linguist, I’m highly disappointed in the castaways of “Lost.” In the time they’ve been on the island, not one of them has truly attempted to either 1) learn a few words of Korean or 2) see if Sun or Jin is open to being taught a few words of English.
Mostly we see this with the English speakers, but last episode it was great to see Jin doing it right back in Korean.
