Can someone please explain the joke. I already saw this like two times and still can’t figure it out
A word is hyphenated if it is written with a hyphen, i.e. ‘-’. So the joke is the word hypenated is not hyphenated, so non-hyphenated, while the word non-hyphenated is hyphenated.
Damn i should’ve just googled the translation correctly lol. Thank you so much
Just a PSA that AP dropped the hyphen following most common prefixes
“loanword” is a calque and “calque” is a loanword.
A community for linguistics humor? Holy shit I’m in.
I guess these examples would be heterological.
