I got this via twitter today 23 Maps and Charts on language and language aspects across the world

Scroll down. Maps are on the right. Click on the map to open a larger version in a separate tab. Some are interactive to some extent and they're really cool. Geek out and enjoy. Happy New Year!

You know you're a language geek when...
you end up postponing supper and go click-crazy with these maps.
Thanks for these, and all the best for 2015!

Some fascinating things are the mapping of letters into word position, letter doubling, and lettering clusters. It
makes sense how writing, and a focus on spelling would make these characteristics more apparent.
