@mato_fuyu In US English, only 4 is correct. In UK English, it's 1 for being cared for in hospital, and 4 may be used in any situation that he is located inside the hospital

It might be... 1 or 4?

@DrsansariOrd @knowiiiedge 2 would need to be 'at the hospital'. Otherwise it doesn't work.

Short answer: ✔️ 1 and 4 are correct — but they mean different things. Explanation 1. He is in hospital ✅ Correct in British English Implies he is admitted as a patient No article is used when referring to the function (treatment) 2. He is at hospital ⚠️ Grammatically possible, but rare and unnatural Usually means being at the hospital location, not necessarily admitted Less commonly used than in hospital / in the hospital 3. He is on hospital ❌ Incorrect in standard English “On” is not used with hospital 4. He is in the hospital ✅ Correct in American English Can mean: He is admitted as a patient, or He is physically inside the building (visitor, staff, patient) Quick rule to remember 🇬🇧 British English → in hospital 🇺🇸 American English → in the hospital Both are correct — context and dialect matter.

Which sentence is correct?

@evilestboywife @_Lakyr @rosmarymouse @All_Lee24 I mean, the puzzle is figuring out how to dodge their moves without getting hit. If you just tried to react without learning the moveset, you wouldn't get very far. I'm curious, which bosses do you categorise as 'an enemy in a vast flat empty arena with no puzzle elements'?

@_Lakyr @rosmarymouse @All_Lee24 I wont say theyre terrible bossfights or that its a necessarily bad thing to do, but out of the 15 base elden ring rememberance bosses, 9 of them are just an enemy in a vast flat empty arena with no real puzzle elements whatsoever

The “git gud” bros made it so that souls games have a vibe of being unfairly cruel and sadistic, when in reality they’re doing the anime fight “I won’t hold back” thing so that you feel accomplished when you succeed knowing the game was taking you completely seriously

@bull_japanese @OliverJia1014 Yeah it's bizarre. I assume they must bake enormous loaves and cut them into triangles by machine or something

@OliverJia1014 It looks like the bread has crusts. I don't think I've ever seen a konbini sandwich with crusts but I've only been in Japan for 30+ years so I may have missed seeing sandwiches with crusts.

Unpopular take, but Japanese conbini sandwiches are extremely overrated. Charging $5.29 for one is highway robbery. I do like Pure Leaf tea though. It’s so hard to find good unsweetened ice tea in the U.S. with almost everything else being loaded with sugar.

@fjgwey @studywithloli Don't look into the word husband in English, then... Literally means the same thing. We just don't have kanji radicals to remind us of the original meaning

@studywithloli Dont look into how most of the words for husband have something to do with being the master or owner of the household lmao

I recently learned about Japan’s patriarchal society, but I didn’t realize it was shown so clearly in kanji (😅) •👦 息子 (son) 息 = breath, life Breath = bloodline •👧 娘 (daughter) 女 = woman 良 = good A good woman

@AFCTHEMIGHTY @GMIgorSmirnov Technically bishop can go g8 to block instead. Avoids quick mate but loses black queen and sets up pawn promotion for white, black practically guaranteed to lose from there

@GMIgorSmirnov Bishop takes queen as no other choice. F7 attacks Bishop. Rook takes bishop. Pawn advances to F8 as a queen for checkmate.

Brilliant Move, But Why? 🤔🤔

@achingkneejoint Had 'had had' had had a fad, 'had had' would have had a hand in 'had had' having had a fad!

as English speakers we have to sort out the 'had had' situation. it's frankly embarrassing to the language

@moe_laboratory If I translated it, something like 'Let's have fun with Japanese'

This is a children's television program broadcast on NHK, Japan's public broadcaster. What is the name of this program?

@showbizkid12 @ExitiumNL @chess_feed You don't move K, white Q takes black R. Black Q is stuck in the corner and can't get out without giving up mate.

@ExitiumNL @chess_feed Yes, but K moves for discovered then there's no clear mate I can see. I could be wrong.

Brilliant move 🎯 but why?

これマジ？

@kevvwill Short of maybe Donnarumma, Courtois or Oblak I don't think any other keeper in the world is making that save.

Every keeper FC Barcelona has had since I have been following the club would be picking that ball out of the back of the net. Until now.

@sdemarco89 @legend96_96 @EmmanuelAcho @gregolsen88 The game is over *barring an onside kick recovery*. Onside kick recovery is about 4%. That's a lot higher than zero. I'd rather know I need an onside kick than not know 100% of the time.

@legend96_96 @EmmanuelAcho @gregolsen88 There is no “rest of game strategy” the game is over at that point! Done. You’ve lost. I guess you’re saying it’s better to know that earlier than later?

But @gregolsen88, the data you supplied may not be inaccurate, it’s just irrelevant. Of course 3 & outs are forced at a higher clip when down by more than 2 scores. Opposing offenses will be more conservative, because— you have to score twice. You’re trying to apply off the rack analytics to a tailor made game. Let’s focus on the Eagles game. Forcing a 3 and out down by 9 is irrelevant, because they would still need to force *another 3 and out* or worse, recover an onside kick (4.7% chance.) I would rather have a 46% chance of forcing a 3 and out, being down by 1 score, then a 51% chance of forcing a 3 and out being down by 2 scores, with no timeouts. Thinks about it, after your 51% chance of forcing a 3 and out (down by 2 scores) you still have to force another 3 and out, or recover an onside kick. More relevant data (@NextGenStats,) would be providing the odds a team forces back to back 3 and outs, when down by +9 then the following possession when down by +1-3. That is if you are trying to disprove the obvious reality that motivation and hope play a factor on defense and in sports.

@A_Wags24 @EmmanuelAcho @gregolsen88 Not to mention by going for 2 early, if you actually get it then you have the option to use all the 'momentum' you built up to go for 2 again after the 2nd TD and win it without needing OT.

@EmmanuelAcho @gregolsen88 By going early you also give yourself 2 shots at recovering an onside kick vs 1. Between that and needing a stop in both examples, this 4% difference is probably the single biggest Win Probability Added event you can control.

@HipsterReverse @gregolsen88 You already 'gotta have it'. You're already in that situation.

@mikewebb22 @gregolsen88 Yea but that’s make or break end of the game gotta have it You don’t put yourself in that situation before you have to

The premise of the 2pt conversation is we have been beaten over the head with the notion being down 8 is a 1 possession game. We need to educate the way the game is played 7pts- 1 score game 94% of the time 8pts- 1 score game 43% of the time Treat 8 pts as 2 possessions. Cleans it up

@Raytron8944 @billbarnwell Yeah, plus the extra 3:14 before you have to go for 2 gives you more time to pray, repent for past sins, make ritual sacrifices to the football gods etc.

@billbarnwell Everyone knows you have better odds of making a 2 point conversion later than earlier because the comeback team makes a smoothie blended with hope, emotion, and momentum which magically increases their odds of making a 2 pt conversion later in the game than earlier.

Can't believe we're still doing this, but going for two on the first touchdown down 15 isn't "analytics". The numbers don't change at all. It's information. Fail on the two-pointer and you're probably screwed either way regardless of when you take it. Choose to go for two on the first one and even if you fail, you've at least got hope to get an extra possession with an onside kick, as the Cowboys did in 2020 (youtube.com/watch?v=Y2bu5q…) Delaying the tough decision until the second TD and failing means you have absolutely no hope. It's just delaying the risk.

@HipsterReverse @gregolsen88 Going for two and missing when down 8 is also 100 percent a two possession game

@gregolsen88 That’s just not true it’s a 1 possession game These percentages of conversions are irrelevant because it doesn’t take in to account momentum and how you are playing that day But going for two and missing is 100 percent a two possession game

@jacorrao2 @minakimes You need a 2 pt conv. Now, or after a TD at the end of the game. Wait til the end of the game and don't get it? Oh, you lost, that sucks. Nothing you can do. Go for it now and don't get it? OK, let's try an onside kick, maybe you can get lucky, or at least know what you need

@minakimes Can you please explain it to me like I’m a 3 year old ? Lol. Sorry. Makes no sense

Watched that first half with my Eagles-obsessed mother in law Vibes in the house aren't great

@Rob_Starrk @minakimes No it isn't? You HAVE to get a 2 point conversion at some point. Better to know if you got it right away, that way you know if you need to go for an onside kick or not. It's not even up for debate here.

@minakimes It’s a horrific decision no matter the explanation. Takes all pressure off bears offense here, and also gave bears the opportunity to end the game on that play.

@legalrealist @OhhhhMeelan @theqbschool You also lose most of the power generated from being grounded through a stable base (essentially the equal/opposite reactionary force to your weight from the ground). And your head/eyes move around more which affects hand/eye coordination

@OhhhhMeelan @theqbschool Not just that. (To be clear, I'm going on what I've learned from JTO, not my own knowledge.) When you heel click, you're subtly introducing more vertical movement right before you throw, which can contribute to an accuracy error.

heel clicky = bad on multiple levels

@FatTireBikeFun @AbroadInJapan Most likely valid, bears are critically endangered in Shikoku. Only about a dozen or so there.

@AbroadInJapan No bear attacks in Shikoku from the map. Is that a reporting error or valid data?

It's been a crazy year for bear attacks in Japan in 2025. Be careful if you plan to hike in the mountains in the closing weeks of this year.
