This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.
This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?
Just post some stuff and don't spam.

All that clip-clap and doesn't say why
Here you go, enjoy!
More specifically look up the term "ablaut reduplication". There's lots of great articles and honestly some pretty good YouTube videos on the subject. I'm honestly surprised how great the YouTube linguistics scene is, from Tom Scott's language files to rob words and name explain (plus nativlang). Hours of infotainment on linguistics for those interested!
