But replying to it doesn't make you a derp... she's probably hanging onto them in case she ever writes an updated second edition or a further book on the subject. It wouldn't surprise me if she's still getting quite a few.

I wonder what Lupa is doing with these new responses... Good to see that someone else replied to the survey… now I don’t feel like such a derp. I wonder what Lupa is doing with these new responses…

Now I wonder if I was remembering... Great post.

Decided to add them for the sake of completeness. Came across an old wordlist with a few we were missing, mostly place names and words derived from compound words.

Same with words that look like they might form a spectrum of ideas around certain core concepts. Or words that share structural elements (prefix, suffix, roots, etc). *nods* I have a tendency to see patterns, so similar words with similar meanings kind of jump out at me.

I never would have thought that a particular language would be used for news reporting than regular speech. That's definitely a great example of the kind of situation I was thinking of, though. I had no idea that sort of thing was still going on, even today. I've only heard of historic examples.

It's possible there's some sort of connection between them since the meanings are similar and the sounds are still similar even without the juxtaposition of letters. Heraneth seems to convey multiple worlds, whereas Helath feels more local to me (going strictly by feel, so I'm not sure of any of this of course). Languages are separated by vast amounts of time as well as physical distances -- but concepts sometimes congeal around similar sounding words in seemingly unrelated environments.
