An odd bit of indexing news regarding the New Yorker article on linguistics. As you can tell from my post, and certainly from the article itself, it's primarily about linguistics and language. It's also tangentially about Christianity, as Everett first went to live with the Pirahã in the mid-1970s to be a missionary with his then-wife.
I read the article through an alert I set up with Nexis®, which has provided some accompanying "smart indexing" terms.
This is what Nexis® thinks the article is about:
SUBJECT: CHRISTIANS & CHRISTIANITY (90%); RELIGION (90%); RIVERS (89%); RAIN FORESTS (78%)
Um, linguistics anyone? Language?
