yeah, $25/mo is a bit much unless it's super worth it
RussianPod101, by the same people, has the same tier at a mere $10/mo
novel shell
fair enough. I kinda feel like I need something a bit more structured though, because I'm struggling to keep going by self-motivation alone (both spanish and russian, so it's not language specific)
still kinda sad though that my college's russian class is no longer a thing - and it took Русский Клуб (Russian Club) with it, because there was no one left to be the advisor after the teacher retired...
...come to think of it, I haven't seen spanish club lately either, even though I know the class is still a thing
novel shell
yeah, my college's spanish class is still a thing even though the spanish club seems to have stopped being a thing

I don't know, vibes I got from you

gentle oyster
so a moderate then? @keen dirge
Personally I'm a moderate though I tend to lean to the right
keen dirge
not really moderate tho
because im super conservative in most things
in my opinion anyways
Im supporting Andrew Scheer in the 2019 elections

Huh, never heard of him yet

mainly because he thinks the same way as me when it comes to guns/abortion

@keen dirge ah I see

I definitely dont like Kevin O'leary because of his views of legalizing marijuana and abortion

What do you think of Bernier?
keen dirge
hes alright
but i believe he is also pro-abortion which is a bit off a turn off for me
keen dirge
I do like his views on guns yea
because right now guns in canada are classified as "restricted" just by how they look
timber gate
Which is dumb lol
keen dirge
the liberals are all like "ooh that gun looks super dangerous lets ban it" meanwhile its just a semi-auto .22
keen dirge
yes he does have a similar firears policy which is why i like him
for example this gun:
was banned because it looks like an ak-47

Hello. My name is Nazar, and I from Ukraine. I want to learn Spanish. I was in Spain few years ago, and I interested in learning Spanish language. But in my city there is no teachers of Spanish. So I decided to learn by Rosetta Stone TOTALe. Yes, this program level up my language skills, but this program is really awful. I was using this program for 4 month and now Rosetta annoys me too much (Rosetta users can understand, I guess). So the main question is how to learn Spanish in almost "field conditions"?
so how?

yea same with me man
ive been living in canada for 7 years now but im still learning new exceptions and little things like that all the time

Wow!! That's awesome haha and makes me feel somewhat better about how my English learning is going. I dislike using contractions but try to use them as much as possible since it appears in conversation frequently apparently. Do they?
keen dirge
yep they do
plucky badge
I use contractions like way too much
keen dirge
just contract all the things and youll sound like a native
plucky badge
it's not really proper in written things (like if theyre supposed to be formal)
but when i'm speaking i use contractions wherever possible (pretty much)
clever nimbus
Haha I try to use them whenever I can but they sound weird to me.
keen dirge
/o/
old turretBOT
\o\
plucky badge
Yeah I'm not surprised they sound weird haha
keen dirge
which contractions are we talking about?
because isnt stuff like "they're" a contraction as well and im pretty sure thats ok to us in formal writing
clever nimbus
One that I intensely dislike is "you'll" or "we'll" and the way it ends makes me feel like I am saying it incorrectly whenever I use it.
plucky badge
they're is a contraction but I think technically they are is more formal in writing
but I could be wrong on that
keen dirge
hmm i always thought that contractions like that were ok to use in formal language because they are so common now
plucky badge
Yeah, you could definitely be right
worn peak
In formal writing such as work emails and presentations and such, contractions are a no-no
keen dirge
hmm i guess it depends on what kind of formal writing
worn peak
Yes
plucky badge
yeah absolutely

because i know in scientific reports you dont want to use contractions

but i dont think it really matters that much if you use contractions such as "they're" in business emails and things as long as the overal tone is formal

When I write compositions in English, I always go back and contract what I can when proofreading. Is that necessary?
keen dirge
in compositions i guess you can use contractions or not it doesnt really matter as long as you are consistently using one or the other

When I write something formal, I have to go back and uncontract everything 😂
keen dirge
thats one of the key things. you dont want to switch back and forth between a contraction and not using a contraction
plucky badge
yeah
worn peak
Yea I'd uncontract everything tbh
clever nimbus
So for formal writing I should not use contractions and for informal writing I should?
keen dirge
for formal writing you are better of not to use any contractions
worn peak
For informal writing it doesn't matter
keen dirge
but in informal writing it doesnt really matter as long as you consistently use one or the other
clever nimbus
