[gusty ermine]

meth?

[pseudo pine]

Lewis went to sleep lol

[ancient vine]

youre the only child still awake

[wraith totem]

it doesn't have anything to do with the teeth btw

[tidal cedar]

It does

[wraith totem]

source?

[tidal cedar]

To roll your tongue you need to move it back and forth between your incisors right?

[wraith totem]

❌

it's a voiced alveolar trill

[tidal cedar]

How do you do it then

[tidal cedar]

My back teeth interrupt the movement of my tongue

Not onky that

They are also seperated from each other

And situated at the top of my mouth

[wraith totem]

the rr sound sound happens at 4

[tidal cedar]

That's exactly where my back teeth are situated you know

[wraith totem]

at the top of your mouth?

[tidal cedar]

Yes

[wraith totem]

under bite?

[tidal cedar]

You can say that

Behind my top incisors

[tidal cedar]

.

[wraith totem]

i wish i had an x ray

[wraith totem]

do you mean your lower teeth?

[tidal cedar]

Upper

[wraith totem]

your upper back teeth are super advanced in you mouth?

[tidal cedar]

Somewhat advanced but not super

They don't allign with my lower teeth

[tidal cedar]

Especially the incisors

[wraith totem]

but you can say d just fine?

[tidal cedar]

Yes

Because they are two

[wraith totem]

that's the place of articulation as the rr

[tidal cedar]

And they are seperated from each other

[wraith totem]

what are

[tidal cedar]

The teeth

[tidal cedar]

I use the tip of my tongue to pronounce it

[wraith totem]

the only thing that i could think that the would change would be the sound of your s (and not even significantly)

[wraith totem]

correct

[tidal cedar]

I do struggle to pronounce "the" and "it's" without trying

[tidal cedar]

Not the s. But the ts sound

[wraith totem]

hmmm by your description your still should have all the facilities to pronounce the rr

[tidal cedar]

You see, to pronounce the rrr sound you need your tongue to move

I can touch the top of your mouth truw

But

I can't move it

Without it being interrupted

The two back teeth interrupt 2/3 of my tongue

Preventing them from proper movement

While allowing just the middle part of my tongue to move.

[wraith totem]

can you pronounce the normal spanish r?

[tidal cedar]

Even so, it doesn't move freely

[tidal cedar]

No

[wraith totem]

what is your native language

[red sparrow]

How long do i practice spanish everyday for cognitive benefits and delay of dementia

[tidal cedar]

But I can pronounce it close enough to not make it noticeable

[tidal cedar]

Arbaic

[tidal cedar]

What's ironic is that the r sound in Arabic is pretty close to that of Spanish

My friends sometimes make fun of how I pronounce the r

[wraith totem]

that's odd considering that ر is often realized as a trill

[tidal cedar]

Exactly

More often than not, I pronounce the ر like an English R

[wraith totem]

but english r is closer to غ in location

[tidal cedar]

Yeah I know

[wraith totem]

🤔

[tidal cedar]

But because of my back teeth I try to drag my tongue to the back of my mouth

[small zodiac]

they have many roots. parts of each language are from arabic, latin, greek, along with other languages. if thats what youre asking

[tidal cedar]

Or to the middle sometimes

Anyway I am sort of a bad speaker in general

I really don't know how to talk

Which explains why I got 1 out of 5 in my speaking exam

[wraith totem]

wellll you could learn puerto rican spanish that often pronounces rr as the trilled ح

[tidal cedar]

Umm, not really

[wraith totem]

wdym

[tidal cedar]

I already adapted myself into speaking a mixture of castalian (or whatever it's called) and Argentinian

[tidal cedar]

Plus, I heard them talk

[wraith totem]

not all of them do it

[tidal cedar]

I barely understood anything if I understood something

[wraith totem]

well it shouldn't be too hard if you already speak argentine, they both aspirated their s

[tidal cedar]

Well that's where I use castalian

Sometimes I instinctivelly omit the s

[wraith totem]

in that case it's not argentine at all

[tidal cedar]

.

It's more castalian though

[wraith totem]

tbh ive heard people with really thick non-spanish accents say the same sort of thing

[tidal cedar]

It's the prominent part of my Spanish

[tidal cedar]

Who speak quicker? The Spanish or the Argentine?

[wraith totem]

depends on what part of spain

[tidal cedar]

The more prominent

Your average Spanish guy.

That you are most likely to meet

Same goes for the Argentine

[pseudo pine]

Spain Spanish is hard to understand and vosotros is also

[tidal cedar]

I am adapting myself to vosotros

I am part of the tú squad

[wraith totem]

as far as speed goes they're not drastically different
but on average by anecdotal experience i'd say that peninsular spanish is slower

[pseudo pine]

I am trying to but gosh it’s difficult bc I spent the first three years of my Spanish studies learning other Spanish from my professors

[tidal cedar]

Yes, I guessed so

I have a slower pace

[tidal cedar]

Hard life I know

[wraith totem]

that's to be expected of any learner

[tidal cedar]

True to be fair

[pseudo pine]

My exam in the spring includes vosotros on it so I need to pick it up a lot faster sometime this year

[tidal cedar]

Is the direct object form of it "os" or "vos"

I rarely use it

Ironically I use ustedes more but use tú at the same time

[edgy quarry]

Os.

[pseudo pine]

I think of vosotos “os” as “you all”

[edgy quarry]

And what's wrong with using tú and ustedes.

[tidal cedar]

Os digo for example?

[edgy quarry]

Yes.

Why switch from Argentinian to Spanish, tho?

[tidal cedar]

I don't know

[pseudo pine]

Nothing but my exam uses vosotros

[tidal cedar]

I heard it might trigger some people though

[pseudo pine]

And ustedes

[edgy quarry]

What may trigger some people?

[tidal cedar]

The use of tú or usted

[pseudo pine]

To say “I tell you all” ?

[tidal cedar]

Like how some people don't like vosotros

[tidal cedar]

Yes

[edgy quarry]

I tell/I'm telling*.

[tidal cedar]

Yes I tell you all

[pseudo pine]

No like as in direct object pronoun

[edgy quarry]

Just let them cope and seethe.

It's just as valid as any other dialectal trait.

[tidal cedar]

Hmmm. Alright

[edgy quarry]

If you're going to learn a dialect, tho, please be consistent.

[pseudo pine]

Yeah that makes sense

[tidal cedar]

I mean, don't you use the direct object pronoun here?

[pseudo pine]

Yes sorry I was talking to the other person

[tidal cedar]

Les digo or los digo?
It should be los digo right?

[edgy quarry]

?

[pseudo pine]

I was responding to this

[edgy quarry]

I corrected your told because the sentence was in the present simple.

[pseudo pine]

Ye like lo/la for it and los/las for them

Nos for us

Os for you all

[edgy quarry]

I'm not getting you.

[edgy quarry]

Os for vosotros, les for ustedes.

[pseudo pine]

It is how English speakers learn Spanish I think

[edgy quarry]

Whom you tell is the IO. What you tell is the DO.

[tidal cedar]

Les can also be for ellos

[edgy quarry]

Ofc.

But we're talking about y'all.

[pseudo pine]

Yes you are right

[tidal cedar]

What I mean is, do you use the indirect object pronoun or the direct one for decir?
Lo digo or le digo?

[edgy quarry]

Depends on what you're talking about.

[edgy quarry]

Read this.

[tidal cedar]

Oh

[pseudo pine]

So I think it goes IDO then DO then conjugated verb

[tidal cedar]

So when I tell someone I say, "le digo"

[signal oar]

Gud morning

[edgy quarry]

Exactly.

[tidal cedar]

But when I say for example that I said this I say "lo dije"

[edgy quarry]

If you're talking about how pronouns are ordered, that's correct (except if the verb is in the imperative).

[tidal cedar]

Guten Morgen

[tidal cedar]

Damelo?

[pseudo pine]

So what is an example with both?

Like if you

Say

Sorry I am thinking of an example

[edgy quarry]

With both?

[pseudo pine]

¿Me compraron Uds. el boleto para la película?

Ok so

Like

If you respond to that

[edgy quarry]

Oh, you mean an example with both DO and IO. Lol

[pseudo pine]

Yes 👍

[hollow ingot]

If I succeed or fail in mastering the Scottish accent, I’ll do it in the Arabic one and try again in case I fail.

[topaz rover]

Buenos dias

[hollow ingot]

In case, I nail success, I still need the Arabic accent besides the native one because most folk don’t even understand Americans, but they understand me perfectly (except if my recorder is to muffle some words, but it doesn’t happen on VCs, so nothing to worry about).

@twin gust Do you work as a stand-up comedian?

I’m asking because all of yr replies make me laugh.
(I ain’t making fun of you because while not sure, but I believe it is intentional.)

[hollow ingot]

The most commonly misunderstood question: What do you do?

[hollow ingot]

It is about habitual actions, not what is done in the moment.

[warm vale]

That's because it's really ambiguous

[pseudo pine]

Has anyone taken university exams online through proctors? My midterm has this format and I’m ranting because it just seems unethical to record someone in both video and audio no? Maybe it is just me

[gusty ermine]

You're the one who agreed to go to college

You signed up for this lol

[twin gust]

I’ve taken one and never again lmao

It was the worst thing ever. From that day I vowed to always sit inside a designated facility just for testing

[pseudo pine]

Not really, considering this is a relatively new format I don’t consider it to be some necessity for college, especially for online courses.

[gusty ermine]

It happened to me in 2021

[pseudo pine]

Yes I agree. Many people don’t even have spaces to take the exam that follow all the guidelines

[gusty ermine]

It's probably in the syllabus somewhere

[pseudo pine]

You got flagged?

[twin gust]

Yeah, they were saying I was “cheating” because I kept moving back and forth and not staring at my screen 24/7

But in reality, it was the ADHD kicking in haha

[gusty ermine]

College is a scam

You pay for the service and then they decide everything for you

[twin gust]

I don’t necessarily think it’s a scam per se, but if you don’t utilize the investment properly then it is.

I wouldn’t be in the position I’m in if it wasn’t for that piece of overpriced paper

[pseudo pine]

Yes also because the only path to many fields requires college education

[twin gust]

Don’t get me wrong, you can absolutely still make a living without it, but it’s going to be difficult (depending on the cards you’re dealt)

[pseudo pine]

Yeah I agree

[twin gust]

This.

[gusty ermine]

Specific fields like a nurse or lawyer yes

[twin gust]

I did break the exception because I was pretty smart with computers (got hired before my degree) but I did have to get it eventually for a higher pay rate

[pseudo pine]

Sometimes that can be the case and people who worry more about finances often seek comfort in higher paying professions

It isn’t a bad choice just not everyone’s

[gusty ermine]

Won't stop people from getting into debt "just to get a degree"

[pseudo pine]

Did your score ever get resolved? Did you just fail it? I have until Friday at midnight to complete it 😔

[pseudo pine]

A lot of debt is getting forgiven through student loans and repayments

[gusty ermine]

No it's not

[twin gust]

Oh yeah 100%. I talked it out with my professor (super understanding) and I had a chance to retake it

[pseudo pine]

Gosh but retaking it is terrible

[gusty ermine]

There might be some exceptions to some people who get debts forgiven but otherwise people need to take some responsibility

[twin gust]

Some, not all. Depending on the loan (subsidized) and the field you pursue. For example, if you pursue a public service type of work like teaching (I believe) you can have them forgiven after 10 years lol

I could be wrong, but that’s what I last remember

[pseudo pine]

Yes that is true, it also depends on other scenarios

But overall I think seeking higher education can help smooth things out even in the long run

It’s definitely not easy

[twin gust]

I fortunately earned a shit ton of scholarships (not having a life during my senior year from applying) and graduated with like $1k worth of debt

Paid it off after I got my first big boy job

[gusty ermine]

Imagine getting government help for loans and then asking for the government to forgive your government help

[pseudo pine]

Good on you man!

[twin gust]

Thanks ~~all the tears watered my garden ~~

[pseudo pine]

😂🥲

[gusty ermine]

I'm gonna be debt free in November

[twin gust]

Heck yeah!

[pseudo pine]

That’s good to hear

[gusty ermine]

I'm excited, gonna finally be able to put that money towards other things

[pseudo pine]

Swiping the credit card will probably be tempting hahaha

[twin gust]

It’s the best feeling ever! Ahhh so happy for you!

[twin gust]

Literally me lmao

[gusty ermine]

Gonna invest the extra amount I have per month

I have a credit card but I only use it for groceries, gas, etc

[gusty ermine]

Thank you!

[pseudo pine]

Hey I mean gotta boost the credit score right

[twin gust]

Me with a credit card: buys a limited edition Zelda themed Nintendo switch

[gusty ermine]

My credit score is 730 or so

[twin gust]

[pseudo pine]

Very important stuff

[twin gust]

EXACTLY. I have my priorities straight

[gusty ermine]

Was it worth it?

[pseudo pine]

So worth ittttt

😂😂

[gusty ermine]

Debatable but ok

[pseudo pine]

Guess it depends what “worth” looks like for each person

If you value the happiness included with it then that might make it worth it to you

[twin gust]

1000000% worth

[gusty ermine]

How much was it?

[pseudo pine]

300?

Idk

I have an oled but I don’t remember how much it was

[gusty ermine]

I got one for free from my brother

[pseudo pine]

Dang luckyyyyy

[twin gust]

I probably could’ve gotten it on sale buuuuuuuut my brain wanted those happy chemicals immediately

[gusty ermine]

I don't really play it though

[pseudo pine]

Yipeeeee!

[twin gust]

It was like $400 total (with the Zelda game and other goodies)

[pseudo pine]

Yeah I am too swallowed by school

[pseudo pine]

Makes sense

[twin gust]

I could’ve waited like I said buuuuuuuuuut

[pseudo pine]

Hey it’s water under the bridge now, right?

What kind

[pseudo pine]

No it is barely past 3 pm

[pseudo pine]

Light roast with extra espresso

[gusty ermine]

Idk what that is

[pseudo pine]

lol nvm

[gusty ermine]

You can explain it though

You didn't say a brand or anything so idk

You're implying you made two different kinds of coffee and combined them

[pseudo pine]

ah ok I see what you mean

so basically

coffee but you can add espresso to it to make the caffeine content higher/ stronger

[gusty ermine]

So you make a coffee, and you make espresso, and you add the espresso to the coffee?

[pseudo pine]

Yeah basically but I went to a coffee shop

[gusty ermine]

Got it

I usually use grounds in a drip coffee maker and make it strong

I hate weak coffee

[pseudo pine]

those are really cool

I like all coffee tbh

Ill drink dark roasts, light roasts or even straight black coffee

lol

[simple crater]

He watching me cook

[gusty ermine]

Yeah I always take it straight black

I remember having coffee that was perfect for me since it was dark and strong and someone else was like "too bitter"

Doesn't make sense to me

So you're telling me if you add sugar or cream that somehow negates it?

No probably not but the dilution of the pure coffee might have some sort of impact

[topaz rover]

i honestly dnt remember that part

[ancient vine]

Idk it was weird tho I like the show so far the fight scenes are well choreographed

It looks like the actor actually knows what he’s doing

[topaz rover]

told you!

[topaz rover]

see not all kdramas are bad afterall

[ancient vine]

Ok then maybe, I think you just got lucky tho

[topaz rover]

Nuh uh

[ancient vine]

Fuck u mean nuh uh

Yes uh

The big corporation plotline is kind of annoying tho

It would be more entertaining if it was just about boxing

Type shit

[topaz rover]

Nuh uh, its unique

[pseudo pine]

Do you study Korean?

[topaz rover]

used to

need to get back on it tbh

[pseudo pine]

Very cool! I am currently self studying it alongside Spanish

[topaz rover]

smort

[topaz rover]

how do you like studying both languages so far?

[pseudo pine]

Yes! I think Korean is fun to learn although it is hard to grasp since it’s not a Latin based language like Spanish and English

I would love to be able to speak it someday

[topaz rover]

thats so true

[topaz rover]

have you learn hangeul or working on it?

[pseudo pine]

Yes I know hangeul pretty well now!

I think understanding grammar like batchim and structure are things I take notes on nowadays

I don’t have many Korean speakers where I am so it is difficult

[topaz rover]

super important!!!

same, thats why i mainly stopped

[pseudo pine]

It’s soooo difficult

Self study takes a lot of dedication and discipline

[topaz rover]

brb, carrying my baby rn

[ancient vine]

Sure but I would still like it more if it was just about boxing

[topaz rover]

that is so true!

[topaz rover]

but i mean you cant deny that its really good

[gritty birch]

exactly

[pseudo pine]

I wouldn’t have progressed to my current Spanish level if not for taking it in a classroom

[gritty birch]

i guess every language is same, you gotta participate and practice in order to improve your level

[ancient vine]

I just watched the one episode I cba watching another one rn gonna watch tomorrow but yes so far it’s good

[gritty birch]

guys how to heck you write upside down ? xd lol

wtf

[ancient vine]

[pseudo pine]

I teach them how to do the homework they don't do bc they are at the gym

[sweet jacinth]

fr

[pseudo pine]

agree to disagree I do not wanna risk breaking something for fun

[ancient vine]

what? a rib?

that shit heals quick

[pseudo pine]

cmon mannnnn I do not have time for that

[ancient vine]

6 weeks?

aint nothing

[pseudo pine]

I could be studying

[ancient vine]

your rib is broken

not your cranium

[pseudo pine]

That sounds painful which is distracting

[ancient vine]

this is why you need it

[pseudo pine]

[ancient vine]

"it sounds painful"

"im born 07 and im still and infant"

[pseudo pine]

Man 05 is only 2 year difference cmon now 😔

[ancient vine]

[pseudo pine]

No its priorities trust

[ancient vine]

tomorrow in school ask them to leg kick you 30%

[pseudo pine]

I am taller than all of them so it'd be kinda funny to see that actually

[ancient vine]

riiiiight youre tall and can tank it

ask for 80%

[pseudo pine]

wait no

[ancient vine]

it'll just tickle you a little

if youre tall I mean

tell them to aim for the side of your leg as well

[pseudo pine]

I am kidding I am 3'2 actually 80% is unnecessary

[ancient vine]

nah nah nah it'd be funny to see those short kiddies try and hurt you ask for 80%

[pseudo pine]

[hollow ingot]

Mutual understandability means different things to different ppl.
Of course, you can’t expect many ppl to understand you unless you speak proficently, but some ppl while their language skills aren’t understandable but I can understand them because of the Universal aspects of pragmatics and intonation besides context.
Some ppl are just upper intermediate, but I can understand them better than natives.
Some ppl I can’t understand at all.

What I learnt from my language learning most is how to know a person’s skills without a test.

[warm spindle]

Is it hard to be an English teacher in Spain

[pseudo pine]

Like hard to become one? I would assume it is difficult

[warm spindle]

im researching on France and Spain for teaching in the future

[pseudo pine]

I’ve thought about that as well

[warm spindle]

Would it be better to get a TEFL and be a private tutor?

[pseudo pine]

Hmmm not too sure. I am not familiar with it. You also would have to worry about citizenship or work visas

[warm spindle]

yes you do

[pseudo pine]

It sounds like a fun job though

It can be stressful being out of your typical elements though

[warm spindle]

I would indeed want to teach history in Spain, but i did bad in my history classes. Despite this i love history

Just not the material

[pseudo pine]

Was it the exams? Some people aren’t good test takers

[warm spindle]

It was essays

Typing them out

[pseudo pine]

Ah yeah that too

It sucks when they assign essays for non English courses

[warm spindle]

Well no no

I took it for American history at my community college

I just suck at typing

or writing essays

[pseudo pine]

Ahhh I see I get you now

Yeah I wasn’t too crazy about history courses

Well I like social studies like sociology or psychology

[warm spindle]

Oh ok

I did good in sociology and anthropology but it doesn’t interest me

[pseudo pine]

Im taking a sociology course now along with English and math

[warm spindle]

Oh ok

In college?

[pseudo pine]

Yes 👍

They are online this semester but tbh it is pretty interesting

[warm spindle]

Oh yes

I understand i cannot take online

[pseudo pine]

Sometimes it is hard to learn when you take class online

Thats why I take my Spanish class in person

I wouldn’t be able to do it online

[warm spindle]

Yes

I’ll probably take spanish next semester

I took it when I first moved here

[silent needle]

Do you try drawing with a special theme in October? Or just whatever it comes to your mind?

[warm spindle]

in NC not Spain

[noble nest]

I mean today was supposed to be boots but im bad at drawing feet so i drew michiko from michiko and hatchin who wear boots

Go on twitter and search inktober

[pseudo pine]

To the US?

[silent needle]

Do you like drawing more in an anime style?

[high solstice]

depends if you wanna be a teacher in a private academy/school or in a public school

[noble nest]

Depends on the day

[narrow cobalt]

I’m from the US haha

[noble nest]

I am gonna kms if i have to weite another essay

Well

I want to be a prof

[hollow ingot]

My goal is to speak all of my target languages like how Brian Wiles do with Arabic or Mandarin.
He has many mispronunciations and grammatical errors. I can easily pinpoint precisely he is an American, but at least he doesn’t need context, precise vocab, repetition, or body language to be understood, hence he might speak like a native if he wants to without any interactive help.

[hollow ingot]

U can use perfect pragmatics to express yr emotion, and I still can understand you even if the morphosyntax is off.

Does it seem easier to you guys to try to think of the opposite language as it's own structure or to mentally translate it all the time?
Ive been noticing the more I try to think of spanish without translating it at all, it seems that I can understand the concepts better.

Even though I may not know words or direct translations

[ancient vine]

i just read it and if i know some of the words I can peace together the rest of the sentence through context

i dont think too much about it

[marsh saffron]

When I first started I was really heavily trying to translate it and that seemed very unproductive tbh

[ancient vine]

you know more words than you think you do I like to just read it and all the pieces of the puzzle falls in place

[marsh saffron]

Yeah maybe I just need to find content to read more, I havent really been focusing on absorbing content as much.

[ancient vine]

that boosted my vocabulary through the roof, after watching casa de papel once I could read a lot of full sentences just from picking up words from the show

[marsh saffron]

Wait do you live in Ecuador? and speak English natively?

All my Ecuadorian friends only natively spoke Spanish and just recently learned English.

[ancient vine]

No, my mother is ecuadorean but moved to sweden young and my father is swedish, my mother taught me spanish and I could speak fluently when I was younger but lost pretty much all of when I was like 12

[marsh saffron]

Oh gotcha

Im going to watch some shows from Amazon Prime in spanish I guess (cause I already have those available)

[ancient vine]

The bag and some shitty old bag work gloves I got from my brother @tall wren as well as some wraps

[tall wren]

yo nice

maybe thats what i need some wraps

[ancient vine]

Maybe, also depends on what I’m going to do

Sometimes I just go without because I feel like I need to put some stress on my knuckles

But rn one of my knuckles is crying so I’m wearing wraps and gloves

[tall wren]

i wonder if it’s worth buying wraps hm

$9

[ancient vine]

Buy some that lasts at least a year

Otherwise you’ll have to buy new ones after 6 months depending on how much you use them

cte????

what's that??

[ancient vine]

When you get hit a bunch like a boxer or some sort of fighter in general it kills parts of your brain

You get slow basically

[rare oak]

ahh okay

sheesh, that's scary

[ancient vine]

He sent me a voice note on what’s app he good just some doubt but that’s usual after you loose a fight

[rare oak]

some doubt abt what?

[ancient vine]

Why he is doing it lmao

[rare oak]

why is he doing it

[ancient vine]

He wants to be Portugals national champ

[rare oak]

and then what

just be famous

[ancient vine]

Then work in hotel business

[rare oak]

he wants to do that?

[rare oak]

@ancient vine

forgot to reply to the message

[ancient vine]

Why you say it like that brother

Like he wants to murder someone

[rare oak]

cause it seems like hes doing a lot of fighting to want to work in the hotel business

[ancient vine]

You’re still classed as an amateur when you’re national champ, not much money in it

[rare oak]

wait why?? wouldnt that be a professional if hes a national champ

[ancient vine]

I mean yeah but he isn’t a pro like say usyk he is still classed as an amateur

[rare oak]

does he want to go pro?

[ancient vine]

No he says it’s not worth it

Because he’ll get brain damage

I keep telling him to go pro because I want to be able to say he’s my homie and he a famous boxer

But he 🐱

[rare oak]

well, i guess as long as he lets his brain heal between fights, would that work?

[ancient vine]

No lmao that shot catches up with you

If you care too much about native fluency, learn a language from the same family.
I don’t think of that too much except that I don’t know when and where I use my skills.
If I worried I would do it.
Hebrew was easy to master except for the Israeli pronunciation. I am unsure if I’m still good or not.
But it is easy even for non-Semites due to being 10 accents only (8 are still in use) and I had mastered them before.
