I have one question I missed the last time I viewed this segment. Why is it so in Latvian, that(besides a grammar quirk) so many words lose their "s" when the word becomes plural(like tirgis singular and tirgi in the plural for example) but here: one week and one day have no "s" in their singular forms and have it in the plural ??? This makes Latvian learning and understanding common words gaining an "s" in the plural in many languages. There must be a catch for I do not see it.....feminine words are ending with an "a" can be added an "s" at the end for the plural form ?? In fact, in the french language, we do have a specific list of words that have a specific ending when they become plural. I'll cite an example here: "Un cheval"(singular) in the plural many are tempted to write (and they would be wrong to do so)it has "Des chevals" which for many would make perfect sense but the right answer would be: "Des chevaux". I'm still trying to figure out why French is so difficult....not just for the lengthy sentence with extra words and our many accents and many verb conjugations..and yes french is a mess to learn !!!!!!!! 🤣🤣
Thank you for your curiosity and I wish I could have the answer to your questions. In this case we need to find someone who can explain how language develops and the authority who has power to create systems of languages and create the books. Right now I don't have such people in my life. The only thing I can teach and try to explain to English speakers the how Latvian works. What I did notice every language needs to be learned, experienced, used and liked. If you have anything else to add or you might know how languages develop, please, do share with me.
