While raising a question in the pharaoh thread in Weekly Themes I ran across this site:

Looks lovely.

Good reference site, Faldage! Though I *do wonder why 'Portuguese' is misspelled so often, including there.

How they misspelling it? All I saw was Portuguese which has a Googlemetric of 5.96M.

Nemmine, I see it. Portugese in that box. Mebbe we're used to hard Gs before Is and Es so we don't feel the need for the U to keep it hard like them Romantics do.

Portugese

As opposed to the large, permanently installed geese.

Portable geese! Ohmigawd!
Faldage, that site looks really interesting, and when I'm not so tired, maybe I can really take some of it in, but for now they've lost me on sisters, cousins, and branches.
