re: #242 Obdicut

The people in Iraq and Afghanistan don’t use English to refer to themselves, dude. The word ‘Tribe’ is English.

You’re totally misunderstanding Ludwig’s point.

I’m pretty sure Ludwig said nothing about English being necessary.

Even if it was, I disagree that non-jewish, non indoamerican people using the word ‘tribe’ (in english) to refer to themselves is somehow an illegitimate use of the word.
