I had some good (girl) friends studying linguistics at Wits! I have no idea why I am sharing this...

And yes, I agree, we overcomplicate everything, and I love it! 😁

Hahah thanks for the share! Always an interesting field. Linguists are funny people, studying alongside them makes for interesting stories.
