@eltitokasti no es más sencillo "retíralo" o "retira eso"?

Traducir "You take that back!" por "A QUE TE MATO" es algo que una IA jamás habría hecho y sin embargo es la única traducción 100% objetivamente correcta, ergo la IA no vale para traducir. No hay más preguntas señoría.

@blckbrdquitter nobody walks without bending their knees, that would be like hemiplegic gait but with both legs lol

me, noticing the way (usually) men bend their knees after they take a step while (generally) women move their hips: huh...I should write this down

@wylfcen What do you make out of the emergence in zoomer/alpha English of a comedic morpheme that literally means church (kirk)

Just read that when someone bragged about their physique, people in Koenigsberg would make fun of them by saying, “You’re totally gonna catch the frog!” (Du warscht dem Pogg all griepe!) I don’t get it. Why would they say that?

linguists in the future might think that the morpheme "kirk" is an intensive that references the church

@ElPatronCriollo el de la foto eres tú? si es así, por qué tienes nariz de modelo sueca?

¿Qué podemos esperar de gente criada por viejos que se la pasan diciendo "no tengas hijos"? Siempre que hablaba con un viejo, el foco de conversación era lo mucho que se arrepentían de tener hijos, o lo insoportables que son los niños, o lo malcriadas que son las nuevas generaciones, que criaron ellos. Vean el contenido de entretenimiento que crearon los viejos: todo gira en torno a no tener hijos y fumarse toda la plata, total, así no te vas a dar cuenta que ni ahorrando toda tu vida serás capaz de tener las mismas cosas que tuvieron ellos.

@NoahRyanCo I don't get it, how does apathy imply constant sympathetic activation?

All of this was manageable, albeit miserable, except for the apathy. Total loss of creative spark or forward thinking. Constant sympathetic nervous system activation makes abstract/long-term thinking impossible

Will do a full write-up but symptoms I personally experienced from mold toxicity: - Sleeping 10 hours a night - Achy joints - Muscle loss, fat gain - Zero appetite - Night sweats - Waking up with impending doom feeling - Total inability to focus - Chronic sinus infection - Histamine intolerance - Shortness of breath - Apathy - Dissasociation - Light & sound sensitivity Symptoms mimic dozens of other conditions. Bloodwork often looks normal. Can lie dormant until a stressor (usually co-infection) triggers it. Its multi-systemic & stealthy. Get a mycotoxin urine test and organic acid test if you suspect toxicity

@wylfcen and fellow comes from feoh + the root of lay, meaning a guy who looks after the livestock

Livestock used to make up so much of people’s wealth that Old English had the same word for cattle and money: feoh, which became Modern English “fee.” The same Indo-European root survives in the adjective “pecuniary,” from the Latin word for cattle, “pecu.”

@NapoleonBonabot you seem like a christian convert Indian

I reject and curse Vishnu and Krishna as false gods

@endliste so you know that the word uncle comes from latin avunculus and that's why you chose femunculus? didn't expect to encounter a linguistic joke in twitter

If there was a word for a female unc I don't think I could survive it. Can't imagine getting called, like, a femunculus

@wylfcen Éowald is literally a calque of Hippocrates

BRING BACK HORSE NAMES. In Anglo-Saxon England, when riding was a crucial skill, people gave their kids names like Éofrea (“horse lord”), Éomer (“horse-famed”), Éowald (“horse power”), Éowig (“horse battle”), Éowine (“horse friend”), and Éowyn (“horse joy”). 🐴🐎🐎🐎

@bitchshreksual It's because English at schools is focused on reading and writing (and grammar rules). English as a second language speakers usually have learnt English as a written language and then learnt how to speak and English native speakers first learnt to speak and then learnt to write.

Maybe it’s just me but I saw so many native English speakers online who couldn’t tell the difference between “your” and “you’re” while I rarely saw non-English speaker having problems with this specifically.

@shagbark_hick isn't this the types of attachment

People who aren't from sick, dark-sided, broken families cannot conceive of what it's like to be from such a family. It's beyond their comprehension. The entire psychological architecture is different. The guy from a decent, upstanding, functional family thinks: "It's important to have fun, work hard, and just generally enjoy life; there are problems in the world but nothing really apocalyptic.." Subjects they consider to be "heavy" are generally.... not very heavy. These people are not urgently anguished or yearnful for "something better," and are mostly very well-adjusted and optimistic (even if they think they aren't). Conversely, the guy from a twisted, crumbling, insane family has a penchant for extremism. If he becomes religious, he thinks very seriously about topics like demonic possession and asceticism far more than the choir and the Church supper... If he's interested in politics they are liable to be framed as apocalypse struggles for some kind of utopia, whether it is left or right wing... he is willing to adopt extreme lifestyle changes toward the end of attaining anything that produces the security of mind he never felt as a child. If he does anything, he is liable to do it to excess. The well-adjusted types find him hard to understand, or even untoward -- and he finds the well-adjusted ones make him nervous, or seem shallow. In a sense, these differences are even more important than "class" because they appear to transcend differences of wealth, income, and property. These patterns hold at basically all income levels. "Dysfunctional family people" understand one another on a deep level regardless of whether their family was on welfare or has a net worth in the hundred millions; and vice versa. I suspect "the family question" is of primary importance; differences in family background really seem to have a profound and often unnoticed impact in the social sphere, far greater than simple "class" ever does in the old-school, Marxian sense of the word. I say this because I am from a very dark, almost Faulkner-esque family, and others from similar families "get" what I think and do, regardless of education or income. The ones who think I am crazy, constantly warn, curse, or chastise me, etc -- they seem overwhelmingly to be from good, upstanding families.

@Carlosazoooo todos los gays ven eurovision, y del cartel al menos 4 artistas fueron a Eurovisión, ergo es imposible que solo conozcas a 3

Voy a decir una cosa y me da igual q me funeis. Estoy harto de q todo lo q tiene q ver con el colectivo esté enfocado para los gays de 30/40/50 años. Dónde están Belén Aguilera, Luna Ki, Samuraï, Bad Gyal, Ana Mena… Yo q sé tío q solo reconozco a 3 de ahi lol

@wwxwashere those are my parents

which ship is this?

in the word "kamesutra", "kama" is related to english "whore" and "sutra" is related to "hymen"

@juliguiso eso te va a pasar con cada una de las etapas de tu vida, la existencia consiste en añorar el pasado y sufrir el presente

una vez en una sesión le dije a mi psicóloga q extrañaba la secundaria pq mi vida era mejor y m dice juliana yo tengo anotaciones de esa época donde decías q todo era una mierda y querías terminar el colegio alfjdnfsksjd

@Florrrhaidas @GH05TKiNG @pascuix1 @delfiima444 la construcción "no sabemos por qué" es un ejemplo de oracion interrogativa indirecta y es válida, no tiene por qué llevar el "el" (que también sería válido, se estaría usando el sustantivo "porqué" que es sinónimo de causa)

@GH05TKiNG @pascuix1 @delfiima444 Y sigue estando mal, a ella le faltó agregar "el". Si escribe: "tenemos la maldición del entretenimiento constante y no sabemos por qué", es claro que se refiere a no saber la razón de lo que menciona anteriormente.
