@_discord_209246900216528896:t2bot.ioWill Ðe Draigon I always find it funny how things like this always have just 'frisian' instead of mentioning it becoming three distinct language groups 11:25:27
@_discord_209246900216528896:t2bot.ioWill Ðe Draigon Like, they mention Afrikaans and Scots and Norn but nah Frisian? Just the one language lol 11:26:21
@_discord_209246900216528896:t2bot.ioWill Ðe Draigon Idk just feels like a bit of a weak area in a lot of people's thinking about the languages, shrug 11:26:48
@_discord_1019009989005824010:t2bot.ioCampbell Guess he needed the space for Luxembourgish ducks 14:50:22
@_discord_621845271633985547:t2bot.ioinsising It's probably just extra space, especially since attempting to study Frisian immediately reveals that there is no "one Frisian language". 18:30:31

@_discord_1019009989005824010:t2bot.ioCampbell Is it really dated like it says? 19:23:07
@_discord_749411088398811209:t2bot.io_me0wster my granny said her granny's generation called it that. It's almost certainly dated 19:28:30
@_discord_749411088398811209:t2bot.io_me0wster mostly because the item itself isn't really a common feature in kitchens/sculleries now 19:30:25
@_discord_1019009989005824010:t2bot.ioCampbell So the word scullery is still used then 19:33:49
@_discord_299197829933694990:t2bot.iothespaceace I've seen "scullery" still in use in my own line of work, strangely enough. 19:43:28
@_discord_1019009989005824010:t2bot.ioCampbell In North America? 19:46:41
@_discord_299197829933694990:t2bot.iothespaceace Yes 19:47:00
@_discord_299197829933694990:t2bot.iothespaceace Specifically the US NAvy 19:49:10
@_discord_299197829933694990:t2bot.iothespaceace The Navy is really big on tradition, and a lot of its traditions are simply carried on from old British Royal Navy tradition. There are a lot of ship-specific words that all sailors/mariners use (head, galley, bulkhead, etc), but we also still retain the use of some archaic British English words in certain applications, like you'll see kitchens on Naval bases labelled as "sculleries". 19:49:42
@_discord_749411088398811209:t2bot.io_me0wster very much so 20:18:03
@_discord_749411088398811209:t2bot.io_me0wster as the place to do dishes, laundry, that's not in the kitchen 20:19:55
@_discord_299197829933694990:t2bot.iothespaceace Oh yeah I kind of misspoke above. We would probably call the whole kitchen/eating area a galley, but the place where dishes and silverware are cleaned is usually the scullery. I've found a few restaurants in the mainland US which use the word "scullery" in their name though, which seems very random. 20:24:46
@_discord_749411088398811209:t2bot.io_me0wster yeah, im not sure I'd wanna eat at The Scullery lol 20:35:24
@_discord_299197829933694990:t2bot.iothespaceace Yeah, it sounds like you're licking what's left off the dirty dishes if you there 20:47:01
