There’s still time to double your donation to celebrate Independent News and Independence Day up to $5,000. We are about half way to our goal.

We are blowing our own horn all week for Independence Day and Independent News with this awesome fundraiser because Don Burns is honoring his wife Katy Burns, a well-known Concord Monitor columnist who died last November.

Don is matching all of your donations starting July 1 up to $5,000 through the Katy Burns Local Journalism Fund. You can donate here and it will be doubled up to $5,000 to celebrate Independent News: https://indepthnh.org/donate/ checks to NH Center for Public Interest Journalism, 38 Edgewater Drive, Barrington, NH 03825, EIN Number 812266973.

We want you to know that InDepthNH.org is your nonprofit news outlet. Ask me anything you want to know about our nine years on the job working for you at nancywestnews@gmail.com

Thanks for all your support, Nancy West

The Double French Invasion

Speaking of WordsBy MICHAEL FERBER A few years ago my wife and I flew on Icelandair to Europe. On one of the doors in the airplane was the word Neytharutgangur. I could figure out the utgangur part: it would be outgang in English if we had not adopted the Latin word exit. In fact in some dialects outgang was an English word until the early twentieth century. A little later, in Amsterdam, we saw signs saying Nooduitgang, and then in Berlin we saw Notausgang. It finally dawned on me that Neythar, Nood, and Not are akin to English “need.” So why don’t we say Needoutgang, like our three Germanic cousins, instead of “Emergency Exit”? It’s because of the French.
