Comments on “23 Maps and Charts on Language”
Recently, a reader drew my attention to a collection of 23 maps and charts on language, asking me to write a commentary on these materials. As I have already discussed many of these graphic materials in previous posts, here is a selection of relevant links. (I might post more detailed responses on some of the other maps/charts in this collection in the near future.)
