Bürgerliche Wende? Von wegen! Die Stadt Zürich sagt heute Ja zur Entlastung des Mittelstands und Stärkung des öV und Ja zur neuen Parkkartenverordnung. Die Stadtbevölkerung stimmt ebenso Ja zu mehr Klimaschutz und Nein zu Steuererleichterungen für Immobilienbesitzer:innen.

Patterns of genetic admixture reveal similar rates of borrowing across diverse scenarios of language contact
Human population contact leads to consistently similar rates of linguistic borrowing, but effects vary across linguistic features.

📰When populations meet, they exchange genes, but also language features. According to a new study by NCCR researchers, contact between human populations increases the resemblance between their languages to similar extents all over the world, but differently.

Capturing language change through the genes - NCCR Evolving Language
When populations meet, they typically exchange genes. Their languages meet too, and such encounters can change languages. But how much do languages actually change through contact, and do these change...
