This website is created by Linden Alexander Pentecost, and the content is written by Linden Alexander Pentecost. I have published far, far more, on my other websites, in PDF-only books, kindle-only books, in print-only books, in other articles on websites, and elsewhere - than I have on the website currently in front of you. Nevertheless this website contains its own unique, important content, and is just as important as my other outlets of publication. www.languages-of-linnunrata.co.uk is intended as a website for sharing specific information about specific languages; my other publications and websites by comparison are in a sense much more general, but also very detailed.
