Curiouser and curiouser
L. Scott Johnson just submitted a few new autonyms (‘written’, ‘writable’ and ‘abbr.’) and a contranym (‘highfalutin’). His ideas inspired me to think of a new pair of strange attractors: ‘left-to-right’ and ‘right-to-left’, which become strange when you try translating them into a Semitic language such as Arabic.
