John McWhorter, linguist and cultural commentator

Post by Roshan »

I need a read on his ct to be able to follow through on my train of thought. Is he TeNi? SiTe? TeSi? Something else?

McWhorter wiki. He is a linguist specializing in American Creole languages. (And was the catalyst for my winding up reading about the Maroons, the literate slaves here who turned out to be from Mali, Timbuktu libraries, etc. this year, Vincent)

My first impression is SiTe Roshan

And there is a lot of History and Geography even in the first mins.
Neither Si polr nor Ni polr seems likely to me.

And at times he gets uncannily close to my father's cadence, tone, energy and body language.

But that's just a first impression.
I'll download that video so i can watch it during tomorrow's break at work.

tbcd soon.
