1) The Scots Language Centre: “It’s yer ain tongue.”
The site contains lots of interesting information about Scots, the language spoken throughout Scotland from Shetland to Galloway and Aberdeen to Glasgow. You can read about the history of Scots and find out about the people that speak it today. Almost everything on the site is available in English too. Just move between the two languages if there are Scots words that you don’t understand.
2) Languages on Wikipedia presented as an array of circles. (I would have thought Russian would have a larger circle, but I guess that’s because I consult it so often.) This comes courtesy of John Emerson, who has a new post on The Consonantization of America, investigating the changes in American baby names since the 1880s from the point of view of initial consonants, discovering (among other things) a reversal of Grimm’s law: “Goodbye, Frank and Harold and Florence and Harriet; hello, Kevin and Peter and Karen and Pam!”
3) Lexicographer Grant Barrett (blog, word site) told me he’s become a cohost of the radio show A Way With Words, which you can listen to from the linked page. Fun stuff!
