MHDP Obits

Recommended Posts

My 6th hit, Mrs. Susannah Mushatt Jones. Surprised not that many people chose her. The world's oldest person gets a shitload of obits.

A serious question: is Magere Hein dead?

One thing I learned from my Anker Jorgensen obit rummaging was that "toquvoq" means "dead" in Greenlandic, so Greenlandic obit for Ali here:

 

http://knr.gl/kl/nutaarsiassat/muhammad-ali-toquvoq

 

I do hope all is well with Hein.

 

Doesn't he go away to do real life stuff for months at a time before? I might be misremembering.

Are Chinese simplified and traditional different languages?

I don't think they're languages per se but 'alphabets' for want of a better word. You can write down a word or phrase using both 'alphabets' and they're still pronounced and mean the same.

There are variations. Mandarin and Cantonese are essentially different languages developed from the same source.

Picked Bernie Worrell for this pool (as did JiroemonKimura, from the looks of it) as one of those "won't get a truckload of obits, but will die and hopefully get a reasonable amount" names. He gets past double digits.
