"people living in climates less blessed [E.A] ..."?
Blessing that as it may, this is a very interesting consideration. I cannot answer your question now though I look forward to comments (tsuwm? NicholasW? slithy toves? et al?)I learned a long time ago that languages could be loosely grouped into two (as accountants into three)*: those that are synthetic (Latin, for example) and those that are analytic (English, for example). Are there any polyanalytic languages out there? I bet there are, and they all have to do with software.

*said groups provided if no one comes up with the punchline in say, 24 hours.
