[placid heath]

Ahhhh

Kryptik, THAT's what your pfp reminded me of

That giant crying eye angel from Eva

[cinder socket]

@ocean robin about the dumb dog. There is a saying "bellende Hunde beißen nicht" ~barking dogs do not bite

[placid heath]

Brennende Hunde beißen nicht. :P

🐶 🔥

[viscid cape]

Ahh I see @placid heath 😂

[cinder socket]

You need to go to Switzerland to eat some dog or somewhere more east xD

[placid heath]

You shouldn't eat dogs.

Don't eat carnivores.

That's unhealthy AF

[ocean robin]

Krypti, I am back. Please don't murder me.

[viscid cape]

🔪 😡 🗡

[ocean robin]

😦

[viscid cape]

How's 2 going?

[ocean robin]

Well I still have no idea of that "stumm" though.

[opal sequoia]

Do you know what dumb means, Flappy?

[ocean robin]

Yeah, I know right.

But they said it didn't mean dumb or silly. 🤔

[opal sequoia]

No, really.

[viscid cape]

You know one sense of it

[ocean robin]

Yes, I really know what it means.

[viscid cape]

Not the sense we're looking for

[opal sequoia]

Dumb means someone who cannot speak.

[pine ginkgo]

ehehe

[ocean robin]

Wait.

What.

[viscid cape]

Listen to the aussie wisdom

[ocean robin]

🤔

[opal sequoia]

Although people don't use it this way often.

[ocean robin]

Ah, thought so.

So mute dogs? 🤔

[viscid cape]

You can say dumb dogs

As long as you know what it means

[pine ginkgo]

also answer the question in th brackets for that sentence

ehehehhee

[viscid cape]

True, that's important

[opal sequoia]

Wow, they even tell you.

[pine ginkgo]

ehehehe

[viscid cape]

^ Evil laughter

[shy bobcat]

what's luna laughing about

did flappy flop again

[ocean robin]

Wait what Solet?

Oh dammit Solet you're evil.

[viscid cape]

Flappy, still waiting for 2

[ocean robin]

Yeah, but now I have to awnser to the question into brackets for 2 too

mmmh

I thought it was singular because how there could be several waters

[viscid cape]

Not necessarily

[pine ginkgo]

ehehhehehehehehehhehehehe

[shy bobcat]

oh

hehhehehe

[viscid cape]

@ocean robin Even if you can't think of a good explanation to it

You need to be able to tell immediately which of the two is the case

By grammar alone

[ocean robin]

🤔

Wait a sec.

[shy bobcat]

Go look at the German, the grammar will answer

[ocean robin]

Mmmmh. Now I think that if it was only one water it would have been stilles but I am even not sure.

[shy bobcat]

✅

Good

[ocean robin]

[shy bobcat]

And water can be plural

As you have seen ^^

[ocean robin]

Yeah lol 🤔

So wait that I correct 2 by adding waters.

1. Poverty is the inventor of all things. 2. Dumb/Mute dogs and silent waters are dangerous. 3. An old wound bleeds easily. 4. Sinister thoughts are a menacolic head's children. (wat) 5. A good conscience is a soft pillow.

[shy bobcat]

what's the originals again

[viscid cape]

Reposting

[shy bobcat]

nice

😉

[viscid cape]

menacolic is not a word afaik

[shy bobcat]

No

Flap flopped

[viscid cape]

Fix 4 Flopps

Remake it, the meaning is all wrong

[shy bobcat]

It's not "all wrong" IMO just misspelt and weirdly phrased

[ocean robin]

wat it's not a word

🤔

[shy bobcat]

no, you spelled it wrong

If you spelled it right it would be a word

[ocean robin]

mmmmh

melancholic lol

[shy bobcat]

yes

[ocean robin]

1. Poverty is the inventor of all things. 2. Dumb/Mute dogs and silent waters are dangerous. 3. An old wound bleeds easily. 4. Sinister thoughts are a melancholic head's children. 5. A good conscience is a soft pillow.

[viscid cape]

Fläppers can you explain the meaning of 4 with your own words?

[ocean robin]

Yeah... I have no idea either.

[shy bobcat]

I can understand what it means ^^ but the phrasing is weird

[ocean robin]

🤔

[shy bobcat]

Do you know what melancholic means

😛

[ocean robin]

yes

[viscid cape]

Children is being used in a metaphorical sense. Can you think of another word for it?

[ocean robin]

Metaphorical huh. Mmmh.

[shy bobcat]

@viscid cape tbh I don't know what you're getting at

[viscid cape]

I'm trying to make her understand the sentence

She's just translated the grammar

[shy bobcat]

I mean I have no idea what you want her to replace children with

[fair iron]

I love your translation, Flappy. ^^

[pine ginkgo]

i would replace head

tbh

[fair iron]

As would I.

[shy bobcat]

Aye

[viscid cape]

Children is a metaphor. A good translation would be the offspring or the result

To my mind

[hot cloak]

that's a weird way of phrasing it, regardless

[fair iron]

All things considered, it's a strange sentence. The translation won't do much to improve upon it.

[shy bobcat]

I guess offspring 🤔 but it will sound weird anyway

Yeah

[hot cloak]

melancholic people tend to...

[viscid cape]

I don't think it's a strange sentence

I mean, the wording is strange

But the meaning is crystal clear

[pine ginkgo]

me neither

in german at least

[shy bobcat]

I agree with kryptik and luna just the flappy version 🤔

[viscid cape]

Not that she's paying any attention though lol

[pine ginkgo]

Sinister thoughts are the result of a melancholic mind

[fair iron]

^

Much better.

[pine ginkgo]

or something as translation

[shy bobcat]

Dark thoughts, even ^^

[hot cloak]

Finstere Gedanken sind die Kinder eines melankolischen Kopfes

[viscid cape]

Oxford and Cambridge dictionaries are ridiculous when compared to Merriam Webster

At least in the free version

[shy bobcat]

?

[viscid cape]

Few definitions, no example sentences

It's ridiculous

Maybe the paid version has more information 🤔

Merriam Webster has way more info

[shy bobcat]

Where she gone, flops 👀

[viscid cape]

No idea, I give up tutoring her

[pine ginkgo]

welcome to thr club

[opal sequoia]

🦊

[shy bobcat]

[ocean robin]

No idea, I give up tutoring her
😦

[fair iron]

I'll take over, then.

[ocean robin]

[fair iron]

What was your latest attempt?

[ocean robin]

When you say "torture" I feel like I am acting like a masochist. 🤔

1. Poverty is the inventor of all things. 2. Dumb/Mute dogs and silent waters are dangerous. 3. An old wound bleeds easily. 4. Sinister thoughts are a melancholic head's children. 5. A good conscience is a soft pillow. We're at 5.

[fair iron]

Masochism is deriving pain from one's own suffering, Flappy.

Do you mean sadist?

[shy bobcat]

You didn't fix your weird phrasing on 4 ^^

[pine ginkgo]

sadochist? 🤔

[placid heath]

^ dies

[ocean robin]

wat

[shy bobcat]

^ stirbt

:kappa:

[placid heath]

^ dies nicht

[shy bobcat]

:stuck_out_tongue:

[fair iron]

Oops. Sadism was what I was looking for. 😅

[ocean robin]

Oh so I maybe misunderstood this word or it isn't the same meaning as in French. 🤔

[fair iron]

Well, sadist.

What's the French meaning?

[ocean robin]

That you like pain.

[viscid cape]

How can you misunderstand your Le Marquis de Sade

[placid heath]

I like bread too

[ocean robin]

And that you wannt mooore and stuff.

[fair iron]

Both mean that you like pain.

One is just inflicting pain, and the other receiving it.

[quasi merlin]

PAIN!

[ocean robin]

Yeah, in this case you like receiving it- of Mika has awaken.

[fair iron]

YOU MAKE ME A BELIEVER

[quasi merlin]

BELIEVER

[placid heath]

Monsieur Doctor, I have PAIN in my leg. - Doctor: WTF WHY

[shy bobcat]

JAIME PAIN
JE SUIS PAIN

[ocean robin]

Hey Mika.

[shy bobcat]

🥐

[fair iron]

Love you, Mika. ❤

[quasi merlin]

💙

[ocean robin]

OH NOW I WANT TO HEAR THAT SING AGAIN

AH

[shy bobcat]

💙

[fair iron]

Here, Flappy: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IhP3J0j9JmY

[placid heath]

Flappys mistakes are sometimes a pain. 🍞

[ocean robin]

Thanks a lot Casca. ❤

[shy bobcat]

endlich passt das Herzchen zum Namen 💙

[placid heath]

💛

[fair iron]

💜 would have fit, Arizona. 🤔

[shy bobcat]

Aber ich benutze 💙, 💜 eher nicht ^^

[fair iron]

Na dann. ^^

[shy bobcat]

😛 💙

[fair iron]

Anyway, back to translating, Flappy.

You still need to correct some things.

[ocean robin]

Yeah, but I need to know what.

[fair iron]

Let's see:

1. Poverty is the inventor of all things. 2. Dumb/Mute dogs and silent waters are dangerous. 3. An old wound bleeds easily. 4. Sinister thoughts are a melancholic head's children. 5. A good conscience is a soft pillow.

Let's start with the second one.

(Since the first one is correct.)

[ocean robin]

Yeah, the more I read the more I don't understand the 5- ah okay.

Nou 5 seems okay. 4 is just weird as hell. But what's wrong with 2 though, I thought we were finished with it. 🤔

[fair iron]

stille can mean silent.

Not here, though.

[ocean robin]

Ah.

[placid heath]

I'd like a loud water, please.

[shy bobcat]

^^

[ocean robin]

Well I like when I go on dict.cc I just find synonyms of "silent" as "quiet" "mute" "inactive" "calm"

[shy bobcat]

look up German still not Englis silent

Englis__h__ even

[ocean robin]

I looked up German's still.

Ah okay.

"ruhig/still" for English on- wair wot

Still means calm as well in English?

TIL.

[fair iron]

Yep.

[shy bobcat]

was about to say, "it's a lot easier than you're thinking"

😛

[fair iron]

Ruhe/Stille both mean calm.

[shy bobcat]

so yeah, calm or still waters ^^

[ocean robin]

[shy bobcat]

can we make a bot that reprimands flappy for using emojis

[fair iron]

We can.

[ocean robin]

oH gOd wHy

[fair iron]

That doesn't mean we will, of course.

Sounds like extra work.

[shy bobcat]

^^

[ocean robin]

1. Poverty is the inventor of all things. 2. Dumb/Mute dogs and still waters are dangerous. 3. An old wound bleeds easily. 4. Sinister thoughts are a melancholic head's children. 5. A good conscience is a soft pillow.

lel

[fair iron]

Now only the fourth remains.

[ocean robin]

Ooooh that 4. I feel like it will be hard since I even don't understand my translation. 🤔

The more I read it, the more I don't understand

[shy bobcat]

that's because your translation is gibberish, and only makes sense because I know what the German says ^^

well not gibberish

but

[quasi merlin]

Das Original enthält "Kopf", richtig?

[shy bobcat]

ja ^^

Im Buch steht: "Finstere Gedanken sind die Kinder eines melancholischen Kopfes"

[ocean robin]

I wasn't read for an avatar change, Mika

But still I have nooooo idea. That looks like philosophical or thingy, as Krypto stated, the childrens are a metaphor...?

[shy bobcat]

luna gave a better translation

[fair iron]

Luna gave the best translation.

[shy bobcat]

really the only way to actually make it sound good in english

[fair iron]

^

[shy bobcat]

is to completely rephrase it

@fair iron I could make a better one, but his was excellent for non-native 😄

[ocean robin]

I wasn't there, what was it?

[fair iron]

Send me your attempt, I'd love to see it. ^^

No cheating, Flappy.

[ocean robin]

expecting the "flops don't cheat"

AH. I KNEW IT.

[quasi merlin]

Slow.

[ocean robin]

Yes. 😦

[shy bobcat]

so right

let's try and work you to something better @ocean robin 😄

your sentence*

[ocean robin]

👀

[shy bobcat]

we don't need to change you 😛

[ocean robin]

"Work you" Arizona 2017

[viscid cape]

patspatspats Flappo

[shy bobcat]

Sinister thoughts are a melancholic head's children.

right, first off the use of the 's-genitive sounds funny

what's another way to say that in english

[ocean robin]

uuuuwa

[shy bobcat]

similar to french

[ocean robin]

Of?

[shy bobcat]

yes

[ocean robin]

mhh

Sinsiter thoughts are a melancholic head of children?

That sounds weird as hell lel

[shy bobcat]

flops

you flipped them

[nocturne spruce]

lol

that's awesome, I didn't even notice the mistake at first glance

[ocean robin]

gOd am I messing English's genitive now

please no

[viscid cape]

This sounds as if it had been taken directly from some abominable horror book 😂

[ocean robin]

IKR

b-but if we do the other way around...

[fair iron]

Don't use the literal translation of Kopf.

[ocean robin]

Ah.

[shy bobcat]

@fair iron we're going one thing at a time

[fair iron]

Or the literal translation of Kinder.

[ocean robin]

That being said.

Wait what.

[shy bobcat]

I'd like to fix the structure befoer we change words

[ocean robin]

🤔

[opal sequoia]

What's wrong with children here?

[shy bobcat]

@ocean robin I'm gonna try to speak in french, and fail but bear with me, as the one part of the grammar I want you to notice will be ok: you said something like "Les pensés sinestres sont la tête melancholique des enfants" which is gibberish 😛

[ocean robin]

Yeah, I understood that

...after writing it

[shy bobcat]

you want to say, "les enfants d'une tête melancholique"

so say that in english

same exact order minus where melancholic goes

[ocean robin]

"Children of a melancholic head"

wow

[shy bobcat]

yes

now

we can change head and children

[ocean robin]

The deeper we go the more I get confused

huh wat

[shy bobcat]

what is another word for "head" that's more to do specifically with thought

rather than the physical body part

[ocean robin]

Brain?

[shy bobcat]

Another one

[ocean robin]

🤔

[shy bobcat]

M- something

"Sinister thoughts are the children of a melancholic head" is what we have so far btw ^^

[ocean robin]

uuuuuuh

[shy bobcat]

mind

[ocean robin]

oh shiet

[shy bobcat]

if you dind't kow that word already, know it 😛

[ocean robin]

But I knew it already ;u;

[shy bobcat]

write the sentence out again

then we'll replace "children"

[opal sequoia]

But why not children?

[ocean robin]

1. Poverty is the inventor of all things. 2. Dumb/Mute dogs and silent waters are dangerous. 3. An old wound bleeds easily. 4. Sinister thoughts are the children of a melancholic head. 5. A good conscience is a soft pillow.

[shy bobcat]

@opal sequoia because it sounds weird 😛

I mean, for a literal translation flappy's done well 😄

[opal sequoia]

How does it sound weird?

[shy bobcat]

idk it just does

😛

[fair iron]

To be honest, I'd consider Flappy's attempt correct at this point.

It's poetic.

[viscid cape]

If your teacher asked you where you took this part of your essay from, would you reply "Ah, that part was a child of my head".

[shy bobcat]

yeah I would as well ^^ @fair iron

[viscid cape]

👁n👁

[shy bobcat]

She's translated it fine

[fair iron]

Shall we share our attempts, Arizona? ^^

[shy bobcat]

2 still has "silent water" tho

[fair iron]

She copied the wrong one, nice. 😄

[shy bobcat]

😄

[opal sequoia]

You could use a lot.of similar analogies but children works as well as any.

[shy bobcat]

I "translated" it as "Dark thoughts arise from a melancholic mind"

[ocean robin]

oh dammit

[shy bobcat]

No

[viscid cape]

Yes, but we're making sure she understands what it means

[shy bobcat]

yours was fine

[viscid cape]

Even if it sounds less poetic

[shy bobcat]

no @ocean robin

[ocean robin]

Now I can understand it tbh

[fair iron]

I tried my best to make it as difficult for you to understand as possible, Flappy.

"Tenebrous notions flow from a wistful cognisance."

[ocean robin]

Mmmh, I don't understand the 2 last words. WD time.

[shy bobcat]

it's just overly fancy words 😛

words you'll never need

mostly never

[ocean robin]

lel okay

[pine ginkgo]

it's cascaesque

[ocean robin]

After all I must admit that I love when Casca is writing fancy words so I am okay with it.

[opal sequoia]

That's fine, kryptik. I had misread it as children being wrong, which it isn't.

[ocean robin]

My typos are a nightmare.

[fair iron]

Aw, Flappy. ❤

[pine ginkgo]

children is fine tbh

it's not meant to be taken literally anyway

[shy bobcat]

^^

anyway @ocean robin post all the current sentences (including the correct 2 this time 😛)

[ocean robin]

1. Poverty is the inventor of all things. 2. Dumb/Mute dogs and still waters are dangerous. 3. An old wound bleeds easily. 4. Sinister thoughts are the children of a melancholic head. 5. A good conscience is a soft pillow. I think it's okay now? 🤔

[pine ginkgo]

no

[shy bobcat]

5 was still in need of fixing iirc

[pine ginkgo]

wait did you even change anything

[fair iron]

Flappy, you have to copy the correct translation before you can paste it. 😛

[viscid cape]

what's iirc?

[ocean robin]

w-what

wait

[opal sequoia]

A good conscience is a soft pillow. I like that. 😸

[ocean robin]

Thanks Base.

[shy bobcat]

@viscid cape if I recall correctly

what was the German for 5

[viscid cape]

Thanks

[pine ginkgo]

en gutes gwissen isn weiches kissn

[opal sequoia]

👌

[ocean robin]

💯

[shy bobcat]

👍🏻

[ocean robin]

Totally understandable would hear it again.

Anyway.

[viscid cape]

Good job Flappo.

[shy bobcat]

ok it was [...] sanftes Ruhekissen apparently ^^

[viscid cape]

brushes her fur

[ocean robin]

Good job on what? 🤔

ooooh wiii

[viscid cape]

On being about to finish your daily exercises

[ocean robin]

Oh yeah, thanks. ^^

[pine ginkgo]

oh

[opal sequoia]

Eine gute Schwindelwissenschaft isst einen babbschen Polster.

[ocean robin]

poor base

[opal sequoia]

Yes?

[shy bobcat]

using accusative with sein

👀

[pine ginkgo]

getting corrected by teeeis

feels bad

[viscid cape]

He meant to say isst

[pine ginkgo]

would still be wrong

[whole rapids]

new low

[opal sequoia]

Danke.

[pine ginkgo]

krypti thinking he can correct

feels bad

[viscid cape]

Pshh

[ocean robin]

wow poor krypti

[pine ginkgo]

why did you listen to krypti

[shy bobcat]

[ocean robin]

[opal sequoia]

That's the correct sentence now.

[pine ginkgo]

no

it isnt

[opal sequoia]

Why not?

[pine ginkgo]

unless you are austrian

[viscid cape]

It's probably not masculine

[pine ginkgo]

das Polster

[opal sequoia]

Yes it's Austrian.

[pine ginkgo]

you fucking shits

[viscid cape]

Rekt

Respect the austrians, yu razist.

[pine ginkgo]

only teeeis deserves his level

[opal sequoia]

Wow.

[whole rapids]

no mercz

[shy bobcat]

so, can we just give flaps corrections or the ok before she flops away again

[ocean robin]

Wait what am I? C-2? 😦

[pine ginkgo]

:p

[shy bobcat]

@whole rapids nice qwertz keyboard

😛

[whole rapids]

I often forget which layout I am in

[pine ginkgo]

well

[ocean robin]

lol

[pine ginkgo]

if flops posts her corrected sentences first

[shy bobcat]

I think the last one she posted is her most current attempt ^^ unless she reverted a mistake or something

[pine ginkgo]

she didnt change anything in it

compared to the previous one

[shy bobcat]

she fixed silent waters ^^

[whole rapids]

what sentence is she doing?

[pine ginkgo]

well, but not 4

[ocean robin]

1. Poverty is the inventor of all things. 2. Dumb/Mute dogs and still waters are dangerous. 3. An old wound bleeds easily. 4. Sinister thoughts are the children of a melancholic mind. 5. A good conscience is a soft pillow. 🤷

[pine ginkgo]

oh well, whatever

[shy bobcat]

there's fixed 4 ^^

[fair iron]

Flappy.

[ocean robin]

Oh yes.

[fair iron]

Thank you for copying the correct one this time. ^^

[pine ginkgo]

took a while

[whole rapids]

those sentences sound like non-statements I read in horoscopes

[ocean robin]

:^)

[shy bobcat]

@whole rapids it is pretty much that 😛

[ocean robin]

lol

[fair iron]

Barnum statements. ^^

[shy bobcat]

who is Barnum

[viscid cape]

Good job Flappo.

[ocean robin]

Thanks Krypti. ^^

[viscid cape]

Tomorrow I'll give you another 5

[fair iron]

Would you say that security is one of your major goals in life, Kryptik?

[viscid cape]

😏

[ocean robin]

Now I am going to be here for a little 20 mins and then I sleep a- IS IT LIEK THOSE EXERCISES TOO KRYPTI

[pine ginkgo]

i thought you gave up krypti

[viscid cape]

Yes it is

@pine ginkgo Still pondering about it

[fair iron]

And would you consider some of your aspirations as unrealistic?

[pine ginkgo]

ill ask again tomorrow

[shy bobcat]

this flops session flops got to be entertained too, by some teeeis french, so all in all a good session

[pine ginkgo]

join the club, krypti

[viscid cape]

@fair iron It should've been, but unfortunately my life is now very insecure. And yes, some of my aspirations were found to be unrealistic.

[fair iron]

I see, interesting.

Finally, are you ever critical of yourself? Something that you might consider a tendency, perhaps?

[viscid cape]

I think I ruined my life and wish I were 18 again so that I could decide again.

[fair iron]

Those are Barnum statements, Flappy.

[viscid cape]

Did you just use me 👁n👁

[fair iron]

Because you agree with them, you consider them fairly accurate. In actuality, they're quite vague.

[pine ginkgo]

wow, krypti, flops took a great toll of you

[fair iron]

*on. ^^

[ocean robin]

Toll?

[pine ginkgo]

thanks casci

[fair iron]

Anytime, Solet. ❤

[ocean robin]

The only toll I know is for cars.

[fair iron]

Un péage, Flappy.

[shy bobcat]

@ocean robin literally, a toll is money you pay to go on a certain section of road, but it's being used figuratively

[ocean robin]

And Krypti, are you feeling okay? 😦

[fair iron]

(Kidding, by the way.)

[opal sequoia]

I want to be Barnumed.

[ocean robin]

Oh, so it was what I- oh.

[fair iron]

Un impact, Flappy.

[viscid cape]

@ocean robin Yes, sorry about that, it was a melancholic moment.

[fair iron]

Sure thing, Base!

[ocean robin]

Ah. So it has 2 meanings huh. TIL thankies.

Do you want huggies? ;u;

[fair iron]

First things first, would you agree with the following statement?
You prefer a certain amount of change and variety and become dissatisfied when hemmed in by restrictions and limitations.

[viscid cape]

Yus, huggies.

[opal sequoia]

Not really one way or the other.

[viscid cape]

tackles and crushes her

[ocean robin]

huggies

[viscid cape]

👁u👁

[thick charm]

uh

[fair iron]

The two of you are adorable.

Also, poor Flappy.

[whole rapids]

now kisch

[thick charm]

Get a room?

[ocean robin]

T-thanks.

No Chok.

[pine ginkgo]

huggies only for good jobs

[viscid cape]

Chok go chok on ice cream

[fair iron]

Base, do you possess a great deal of capacity which you have yet to make use of?

[ocean robin]

🤔

[fair iron]

That is to say, you haven't yet turned to your advantage?

[thick charm]

I can't choke on ice cream

it would melt in my throat

smh

[ocean robin]

who could

[viscid cape]

🤔 True

[opal sequoia]

No, not that much, I guess. 😸

[fair iron]

Hmm.

Do you ever (seriously) doubt a decision you made?

[thick charm]

I do that all the time

[ocean robin]

^

[opal sequoia]

Doubt? Yes. Seriously? Usually not since I don't have to make these kind of decisions as yet.

[fair iron]

Would you consider yourself an independent thinker?

[thick charm]

A good number of the decisions I have to make I just wing and regret later.

[opal sequoia]

Yes. 🌞

[ocean robin]

What are those philosophical questions? 🤔

[pine ginkgo]

do you remember when flops's excercise was about recognizing adjectives and adverbs?

[fair iron]

Leading on from that, do you ever become dissatisfied when restrictions hem you in?

[ocean robin]

And independent... Well for me 90% of my choices are for the others and not for me. I am known to be a little bit selfless.

[opal sequoia]

Depends on the situation.

[fair iron]

You're a great person, Flappy.

Keep it up.

[ocean robin]

❤

[viscid cape]

Flappy that's normal i your age. When you grow up and have to bear the burden of your own choices, you'll realise just how difficult it is to do so.

[fair iron]

Those questions were Barnum statements, Flappy. ^^

[ocean robin]

Ahhh.

[fair iron]

General statements that make it appear as if you intimitely intimately know someone.

[thick charm]

Ah yes, Barnum Stinsum, the greatest philosopher of our time.

[opal sequoia]

True.

[ocean robin]

And Krypti, yap I have already experienced in my childhood and it is still ongoing. So I'll just listen to my heart and do what it says, I think.

[opal sequoia]

Anyway thanks casca. It is interesting.

[ocean robin]

Yeah it was.

[opal sequoia]

You are doing a good job, Flappy.

[ocean robin]

Thanks everyone ;u;

[shy bobcat]

impromptu translaterooni of casca's last couple a messages:

Die Fragen da waren Barnum-Aussagen, Flappy: generelle Aussagen, die erscheinen lassen, dass man jemanden gut kennt.

[ocean robin]

🤔

[pine ginkgo]

[ocean robin]

The only clause I have understood is the last one, the rest I need some vocab

Solet. 😦

[shy bobcat]

[thick charm]

[ocean robin]

YEAH OF COURSE IT IS 11 AM

It would be great though.

[placid heath]

It's 11 AM? Flappy, hurry to school, NOW!

[ocean robin]

[pine ginkgo]

[ocean robin]

how you see a person who never uses PM/AM in her daily life

[shy bobcat]

🤔

[fair iron]

What comes after 11 AM, Flappy?

^^

[ocean robin]

Midday! AND THAT MEANS LUNCH! 🎉

[rugged warren]

Mittagessen x)

[ocean robin]

Yus :D

[rugged warren]

I love how it's just "mid day food" in German lol

[fair iron]

Well, I suppose that that's one accepted answer. 🤔

[ocean robin]

I swear when I go eating in ny highschool I am like "i am starving please can I eat already"

[opal sequoia]

What do you eat there?

[pine ginkgo]

maybe you should eat instead of starving

[ocean robin]

Mmh, nothing that special though, like today it was sausages with semolina. Without any sauce. It was so dry but it was okay.

And bread of course because bread is a miracle.

[viscid cape]

Her everyday snack

[ocean robin]

_>

[opal sequoia]

Okay, I see.

[ocean robin]

Just seeing them... Oh my god.

[viscid cape]

They look yummy, but I probably wouldn't eat them

[fair iron]

Do you not like snails, Flappy?

[pine ginkgo]

they are delicious

[fair iron]

^

[rugged warren]

slippery little suckers

[fair iron]

Perhaps don't eat them raw. ^^

[ocean robin]

I hate them but my father likes them. Look how lucky I am.

[opal sequoia]

What do they taste like?

[viscid cape]

Monsieur Piérre

[thick charm]

snaily

[ocean robin]

I don't remember Base.

[thick charm]

Not a fan of snails myself

[ocean robin]

Because I have eaten snails only once.

[thick charm]

But I don't like frutti di mare either so I just have a bad taste in food

[pine ginkgo]

kinda like mussels

[viscid cape]

They're nutricious

[pine ginkgo]

not really but kinda, base

[ocean robin]

And it was when I was little or something.

[opal sequoia]

What's mussels taste like?

[placid heath]

Ohhhh!

Escargots!

Question about a memrise clip: https://d2rhekw5qr4gcj.cloudfront.net/uploads/things/video/medium/1000078447_161028_0953_04.mp4

Is she really saying war?

[placid heath]

slurp

[ocean robin]

Don't worry Chuck, I am VERY picky on food as well.

[placid heath]

Klingt eher nach 'fahr'

[pine ginkgo]

would rather say she said fahr

[viscid cape]

I wish I had the habit of eating insects. They're cheap, nutritious, don't harm the environment etc

[cold vessel]

That's what I thought

[placid heath]

Sol2l8

[cold vessel]

Does both make sense in the context?

[placid heath]

Yes

[pine ginkgo]

yes

[opal sequoia]

Maybe you can buy them in a form that isn't so bad , kryptjk

[placid heath]

Sol2l8again

:>

[pine ginkgo]

:>

[ocean robin]

Oh god I wouldn't Krypti. My mother does that and once said "do you want to taste that?" And I was "AGH NO"

[pine ginkgo]

why?

[cold vessel]

Stupid memrise misquoting people 👀

[placid heath]

Ich war hin und weg is an idiom though

hin und weg sein

[pine ginkgo]

ich bin hin und weg von dir, korae

[viscid cape]

@ocean robin Your mom is cool 👁u👁

[placid heath]

Ich bin auch hin und weg von dir, tLuna

[ocean robin]

I didn't say she wasn't cool but yah I don't like insects. At least in my mouth. >_>

[placid heath]

Would you try insects if they were ground to a patty?

[cold vessel]

Yes, they translated it as "I am over the moon"

[viscid cape]

I would, absolutely @placid heath

[ocean robin]

NO

EVEN IF THEY WERE NO

[placid heath]

Flappy, would you eat guinea pig as a patty?

[ocean robin]

NO

[viscid cape]

😂

[ocean robin]

WHAT THE HELL

[placid heath]

Peru

[clear pebble]

Was ist hier?

[placid heath]

Would you eat kangaroos as a patty?

[ocean robin]

🤔

[pine ginkgo]

would you eat pigs as a patty?

[placid heath]

Maybe she just thinks insects are as cute as guinea pigs and doesn't want to eat them because of that.

[viscid cape]

I'd eat humans as patty

[placid heath]

🐛

[ocean robin]

Meat as a patty is not that good, it sounds like you are a cat and your owner gave you a patty

[placid heath]

Kryptik, don't eat carnivores.

Eat a vegan, if at all

[viscid cape]

Vegetarian hoomans.

[ocean robin]

Krypti cannibalism confirmed.

[clear pebble]

Das ist politik

[ocean robin]

[viscid cape]

👽

[clear pebble]

Es ist politik

[ocean robin]

Don't worry it's not politics.

[pine ginkgo]

[fair iron]

They do taste alright, I admit.

[pine ginkgo]

[ocean robin]

[pine ginkgo]

[fair iron]

The aftertaste is a little dry, but other than that it's pretty good.

[placid heath]

Meat classification chart:

• Tastes like beef -> Cow
• Tastes like pork -> Pig

But insects are not?

... Would you try insect eggs?

[ocean robin]

Yes they are. Oh god eggs are awesome. ❤

[pine ginkgo]

UUHH NO

[ocean robin]

[pine ginkgo]

so

what is wrong

with eating insects

this is like getting flops to explain her sentences

[ocean robin]

But it looks disgusting and the sound ia ugh, I can't stand it.

Chips-like.

[pine ginkgo]

what sound?

you hate chips?

[ocean robin]

Nou. Chips sound with chips are okay.

[pine ginkgo]

why do you hate chips

what about bread with chips sound

is that also disgusting?

[placid heath]

Okay flappy. Assuming you're not a doctor but a pilot. Your plane crashes because

Engineer: Captain Flappy, there's smoke coming from the engines! That's serious!
Flappy: NAH LOL. :kappa:
*crash*

Now you're stuck in the mountains. Would you rather eat the plenty insects around or the dead bodies of your crew?!

[ocean robin]

But Chips sound with insects is not okay.

[pine ginkgo]

why?

[ocean robin]

WTF KOREA

[fair iron]

I see you're a fan of British cuisine, Solet. ^^

[ocean robin]

I WILL EAT WATER

[placid heath]

[fair iron]

How will you eat water.

[pine ginkgo]

what exactly flops doesn't like

[placid heath]

Bite it.

[pine ginkgo]

but she doesn't seem to know

[shy bobcat]

@placid heath flops stories are amazing lel

[opal sequoia]

I love these flappy scenarios.

[ocean robin]

[placid heath]

Ari, they surprisingly all end in a catastrophy because of flops' NAH LOL

[fair iron]

Remind me to turn those into a writing prompt at some point.

[ocean robin]

oooooooooh

hype hype

[pine ginkgo]

we should let flappsy write a story about

how flappsy tries to translate a sentence

[placid heath]

Writing prompt: Flops has to choose between eating insects and eating bodies

[ocean robin]

About what?

[pine ginkgo]

that will take forever

[ocean robin]

Okay gotcha.

[pine ginkgo]

so

[shy bobcat]

NAH LOL @placid heath

[pine ginkgo]

why is chips-like sound with insects disgusting?

[ocean robin]

I shall now sleep to have inspiration for that prompt.

[pine ginkgo]

but not for other things?

[placid heath]

You'll dream of fat, juicy maggots ready to eat.

[pine ginkgo]

i think this is even worse than trying to get flops to explain sentences

[ocean robin]

Because insects are disgusting ao it's making them even more disgusting.

🤔

[pine ginkgo]

are pigs disgusting?

[placid heath]

And a centipede sorbet as dessert.

[ocean robin]

But I mean, you have a point, Solet.

[opal sequoia]

Writing prompt: write a serious dialogue then replace one person's lines with actual random quotes from Flappy.

[shy bobcat]

[ocean robin]

Fried fish are okay with me.

Well, I knew some. :D

[sudden panther]

I've never talked to one. And it feels weird to duz a superofficial person. asdfwefoawoef

[pine ginkgo]

superofficial?

[viscid cape]

Das liegt natürlich daran, dass niemand meinen Vorschlag angenommen hat, die Sternchen in eine Währung zu verwandeln

[pine ginkgo]

they are tutors lol

[placid heath]

Tutor

[opal sequoia]

Tutor is official?

Welch Schmach!

[shy bobcat]

Ich kann nicht so formell schreiben wie Korea ^^ auch auf Englisch, also kein Deutschfähigkeitsproblem 😅 😛 sondern nur, dass ich mit dieser edlen Gabe der Fähigkeit nicht besegnet bin, auf eine so elegante Weise der Sprache meine Gedanken in die Welt zu bringen

🤔

[viscid cape]

I can see a reflection

Either yourself or a ghost

[opal sequoia]

Ghost.

[viscid cape]

Well if you do German 12 hour, you should probably specify, that's all.

[tribal warren]

Also, vielleicht ist es 18 Uhr für dich

I don't know what we should read, yet 🤔

[opal sequoia]

Okay.

[tribal warren]

Do you have something in mind?
