This is known as Universal 20 of Greenberg 1963. Not so universal, but you have to get down to languages way out of the top 30 like Chechen to find one that don't obey the typical rule. Of 576 languages catalogued in Dryer 2018, 113 are English-like, 182 are English-reversed, and the rest somewhat varied. |
