Habermas, Kerneuropa....

....and why is it so hard to translate the German discourse into English?

Prof. Mark Liberman's Language Log has an interesting debate on "Kerneuropa" and "Habermas". Since he referred to our website, I wrote Mark Liberman thanking him for being the 2nd most important referrer url of our little project and we had an exchange that is featured in 2 posts on his website:

Read Habermas the conservative
and Europeans are Republicans (except for the ones that aren't)

Again, welcome to all visitors from the Language log!
