I made this community because I've been using the anglish dictionary for a while now, and I felt it was nice to have a spot to post about anglish if I wanted to raise some opinions about one thing or another.

On the other side, I haven't read much anglish, so I don't have a flow with the language.

I have been part of the telegram group, but I left it after the core left.

Otherwise I feel like anglish has an easy time attracting fascists. but I will be very clear that they are not welcome here.

¹ IIUC, “motivation” is likely borrowed from French as it ends in tion.

Ultimately Latin origin, both parts, i.e. motiv- and -atio. Though according to this chart it might have come via other languages, but ultimately still Latin.
