I put myself on the side saying that trigger languages ''do'' exist, and fussing over the terminology may have clouded the issue, since while the term was once used in professional linguistics, it's since fallen out of favor. I believe this led to a misunderstanding that anyone calling their language a trigger language has grossly misunderstood the way Austronesian languages work. This page seems to be very little edited, but I want to reword that last sentence to make it more positive.

Do we think it's okay for me to place the Tolkien template here? How should I link to him? Should I include "glossopoeia" in his list of "coined" terms, or how do we feel about this? - bornfor, 13:15 (EDT) 4 November 2012
trigger languages
