Mensagem: | Jose, by "feasible" I meant that it(-ize) is easier to pronounce and in a way easier to grasp linguistically as the "S" sound doesn't have the "Z" sound though it's made to sound like it. As for the Comummente/comumente ilustration, I think you actually proved my point. Which one is easier and more practical, Comummente or Comumente? I'd say the latter. What is the extra M for? Lastly, you asked, what is more feasible Colour or Color. I'd say Color is. As you, yourself pointed recently, there is no pure "study" of language. It (langugage) envolves (reflects) all aspects of the country it represents. Now, what country in this world is as powerful and influential as the United States? |
