Je n'avais jamais pensé à cette explication, mais ça pourrait être super intéressant pour expliquer les différentes utilisations de 'ri' (dont on a quelques traces) et de 'roue'.

Lu comme ça, je me dis que l'un n'a pas remplacé l'autre finalement !

Ri et roue sont deux mots bien celtiques qui correspondent, au niveau indo-européen, aux mots latins rēx "roi" et prīmus "premier"

PIE : *pre- "devant", *-mo- morphème du singulatif
Proto-celtique : *ɸrēmo- "premier"
Brittonique tardif : *ruiµ
Gallois rwyf, vieux cornique ruif, breton roue

A small girl wearing a rabbit costume and blue coat carries a book as she walks to school. 

Her mother (head out of shot) wheels her baby brother along in a pushchair. 

The baby says "Peter Rabbit may be the 'Hero' of the story, but surely the obedient, widowed Mrs Rabbit is a more effective symbol of the oppression inherent within Mister McGregor's regime"

The girls looks furious and snaps "Mum!! He's critiquing my world book day costume from a marxist perspective again!"

The cippus, which seems to have been a border stone, appears to display a text dedicating a legal contract between the Etruscan families of Velthina (from Perugia) and Afuna (from Chiusi), regarding the sharing or use, including water rights, of a property upon which there was a tomb belonging to the noble Velthinas.

The Cippus Perusinus is a stone tablet (cippus) discovered on the hill of San Marco, near Perugia, #Italy, in 1822. The tablet bears 46 lines of incised #Etruscan text, about 130 words - 3rd or 2nd century BC.

Tweet de reza Pahlavi sur X : My heart aches for the 3 American heroes killed and the 5 wounded by the regime. The Iranian people are forever in their debt.

Sur X, Reza Pahlavi rend hommage aux trois "héros" américains tués et aux cinq blessés par les frappes de représailles iraniennes.

Pas un mot en revanche pour les écolières de Minab ou les civils tués par les frappes israélo-américaines parmi son propre peuple, qui se comptent déjà par centaines.

Should senior academics take special chair-names when they receive a full professorship? In these times of precarity it feels like a very exalted position, almost close to a god

I should have had a taste of that when I went to Graz in High school (unless it is different dialect?) but I suspect everyone we spoke with were on their best dialectal behaviour so that the poor French students wouldn't feel too lost.

To be honest, she might have switched to the Bavarian dialect, but my 11 years old brain wouldn't have known the difference.

It is my first year of Middle school.

Having chosen German as my first language, after a few months, I'm finally starting to get some confidence as well as my fellow students.

And then our teacher accidentally reverts to her "natural" Bavarian accent.

A comment on Simon Roper's video 'How far back can you understand English'. This person says he or she is German and could start to understand something around 900 AD when things started to sound like Swiss German.
