Nov 13	comment	Is there a word similar to “racism” when referring to an ethnic group rather than a race? Thanks for the insight, it appears that racism is an appropriate term to use when describing offensive comments targeting a particular ethnic group. I suppose the person calling me out was merely being a pedant.

May 30	accepted	Origins of the south-western Pennsylvania slang word “Yinz”
May 29	comment	Origins of the south-western Pennsylvania slang word “Yinz” @FumbleFingers I don't find the Wikipedia article very helpful or complete. I can't really find an answer that makes perfect sense on this, which is why I asked it.
May 29	comment	Origins of the south-western Pennsylvania slang word “Yinz” It sounds like it makes sense, and there were a good number of Irish immigrants as well, however nowhere near the levels of Italian, Slovak and Polish immigrants. It just doesn't make sense however that the word would be of Irish origin when areas like Boston had a much larger Irish immigrant population and as far as I know have no similar word to compare to Yinz.

Feb 28	comment	English pronunciation of “charade” as in Pink Floyd song Pigs @FumbleFingers Great comment and insightful! If you change this to an answer I will accept it. The legitimacy of the OED is hard to dispute.
Feb 28	comment	English pronunciation of “charade” as in Pink Floyd song Pigs @tchrist I don't even know what kind of voodoo unicode magic you pulled to string those characters together but it looks completely foreign to me. It would be easier to read cryllic I would think :)
