It's a good day when you learn something new, and Philip Durkin's "Borrowed Words: A History of Loanwords in English" has already surprised me. The attached graph shows loanwords listed in OED3 as of November 2012 from the letters M-R and A-ALZ, and it was a surprise to me to see Māori contributing more than Hindi in that dataset. #AmReading#ebooks#linguistics#TeReoMāori#Aotearoa@bookstodon
