Biography

De Simone studied comparative linguistics and archaeology at the University of Rome, where he was awarded a prize in 1955 with a thesis on the subject: "Le iscrizioni messapiche: cronologia e fonetismo". He obtained a scholarship to the University of Tübingen for the same discipline from the "Servizio di Scambio Accademico Tedesco" (DAAD) from 1955 to 1956, with Hans Krahe,[2] for whom he was an assistant from 1961 to 1964.

In November 1964, he was admitted as a professor at the Faculty of Philosophy of the University of Tübingen, through his work on Greek contributions in the Etruscan language.

From 1972 to 1973, he held the chair of comparative linguistics at the University of Vienna, then, from 1975 to 1980, at the University of Perugia.

He returned to Tübingen in 1980 and finished his career there in 1998. A festschrift in his honour was published in 2003, titled Linguistica è storia : scritti in onore di Carlo De Simone = Sprachwissenschaft ist Geschichte : festschrift für Carlo De Simone.[3]

gollark: I'd assume they took some kind of pretrained language model and finetuned it on crowdsourced scenario/response pairs.
