Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•If you had to choose a new _lingua franca_, what language would you pick?
2·3 months agoI mean, I would argue that trade is a form of diplomacy, but whatever. My source points to the first example known as a lingua franca, and shows that the phrase “lingua franca” has nothing to do with the French language; however I can acknowledge the wide acceptance of French as a lingua franca much after the times where Sabir was widely spoken. Anyways, I think that’s enough arguing with strangers on the internet for me today.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•If you had to choose a new _lingua franca_, what language would you pick?
1·3 months agoIt wasn’t, the term lingua franca originates from the Mediterranean Lingua Franca, also known as Sabir, a pidgin language made up of bits from primarily romance languages (notably those of northern Italy) around the Mediterranean. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mediterranean_Lingua_Franca

2·3 months agoIt’s part of general anesthesia, along with other drugs such as midazolam, propofol, ketamine, etomidate, etc. It augments anesthesia gases such as sevoflurane/desflurane/isoflurane, though we’re getting outside my realm of expertise; I’m not an anesthesiologist so I can’t specify why a certain combination of drugs might be used vs another.

3·3 months agoFentanyl is not the cheapest opiate in US hospitals, and is not used as a substitute for morphine or oxycodone. It’s primarily used for anesthesia, where oxycodone/hydrocodone/morphine/hydromorphone are used in the units as pain killers taken orally. Injectable hydromorphone is cheaper and more commonly used for acute pain than fentanyl.
