NPAG and the toponym

The three volumes of NPAG are referenced in the works of Ernest Nègre Toponymie générale de la France (volume 1, 1990). The geographical study corresponds to modern France with the work of Ernest Nègre on ancient Gaul with publications by Marie-Thérèse Morlet.

A number of personal names is preceded in NPAG with an asterisk (*). One example are the forms ending with -acum, the name forms with a proprietary name, one example includes the name *Stirpius (derived from *Stirpiacum in which is the etymology of Étréchy) with the explication: The name [of a person] comes from stirps, souche in French; from E. Nègre (TGF § 6359).

gollark: Each instruction is 3 bytes.
gollark: He made some sort of RISC (well not really, it's 40 or so instructions) instruction set (it's crazy and it's 8-bit so you can only have 85 instructions per program or so...) and a simple VM for it.
gollark: It's basically an esolang, but an esolang.
