May 11, 2018 at 5:32 comment added Nick Nicholas Welp, I'm touched to note that you're doing your bit by advertising the Area51 proposal in your user name. I... won't. If the new hurdle is to find where there'll be a critical mass of potential supporter in a preexisting forum, I'd suggest textkit.com . Then again, if there's already a textkit, why have a greek.stackexchange.com :-( The other thing to do: angrily reject any calls to take Greek-specific questions off linguistics.stackexchange, given it's unlikely to get back up in a hurry.

May 11, 2018 at 3:04 comment added Nick Nicholas Ah yes. More of the curtness that makes Stack Exchange what it is, and then makes them scratch their heads about being regarded as unfriendly. Pfft.

May 24, 2015 at 15:03 comment added jlawler It's figurative. Bear in English is cognate, and one can speak of a planet bearing an atmosphere, though it's not common. Bear means 'have; move; carry; be attached to' and can be applied in many situations, where it becomes fixed and "feels normal". (note that there is no bodily "feeling" involved in such a construction -- metaphor again).
