Abstract: this paper, familiar attested p-settings are abbreviated as "German" (SOVv2, predominately right-branching phrasal syntax, prepositions, etc), and so forth. Not all of the resulting 300 or so languages are (stringset) distinct and some are proper subsets of other languages. "English" without the rule of permutation results in a stringset-identical language, but the grammar assigns different derivations to some strings, though their associated logical forms are identical. Some p-settings do not... (Update)
