  • What are the effects of genetic variations on the human population throughout the ages? www.gresham.ac.uk/lectures-and...
    Mankind, now so abundant, has for long parts of its history been reduced to tiny numbers, and almost to extinction.
    Discussed is the evidence for this, about how we reached our present enormous abundance, and what the future of the human population might be.
    The transcript and downloadable versions of the lecture are available from the Gresham College website: www.gresham.ac.uk/lectures-and...

    He’s great. It’s kinda funny that no matter how much he’s rehearsed the lecture, his brain tends to run faster than his mouth and so he gets lost often. Maybe it’s stress too.
    No matter. He’s so informative.

      He is perfectly clear, considering that speech is typical of many British academics.

      german si spoken in germany, ... dutch is spoken in the Netherlands and Northern Belgium, and the 1650-1700 era version of dutch is now - know as Afrikaans - spoken in South Africa. du must nicht traurig sein, jij moet niet treuren, jij moet niet treur niet

      +Judge Rusty Johnston Amish has it roots in 1700-1800 era German, and parallel since 1650-1700 Afrikaans has deviated from continental Dutch. so a study of what the 1800s Afrikaners wrote down would be better to compare with recent and 1800s English. And I heard in a lecture on-line that in that period the differences between the local dialects were way much greater than they are now. And a hint: look up the Basque language for isolation vs mix.

      Plattdeutsch is just regional german dialects.
      Many people still speak their own plattdeutsch in Germany
