👉 Nanisms is a term used in linguistics and computer science, referring to a pattern or feature that appears only in one of two languages. It is often associated with the concept of "single-word" meaning, where a word can be understood as both a noun and a verb (e.g., "the cat chased the mouse"). Nanisms are not present in all languages, but they do occur in certain dialects or regional variations that are considered unique to their respective regions.
