Hello

[hollow ingot]

That Turk cursed me because I disagree with her about some Quranic translations. It has 0 negative effect on me.

First off: Being a native doesn’t mean that I’m perfect. Abu Bakr and Umar made some mistakes in their exegesis, but Ibn Abbaas has never cursed them even tho’ he knows better. While l-Hajjaaj never makes mistake, but Abu Lahabb does.
Second: Language is a subjective and relative field, as what is accurate depending on the person, not what is in the books. Hence there are many correct interpretations for single words.

[hollow ingot]

Most translators and commentators in all subjects intend to be controversial by sharing what is common only instead of all viewpoints.

But in fact, in language, what is perfect for me can’t fit everybody.

[gusty ermine]

Hey

[hollow ingot]

Accents are beautiful!

[hollow ingot]

The thing is, as a native I have a different set of mistakes:
I can misvocalise names or use wrong words.
But non-Arab fluent speakers (which are few relatively) have grammar and pronunciation issues.

@ancient vine first part has been achieved

stay tuned until my 6pm

[ancient vine]

out of school stuff

[rare oak]

buuuuut it's the start

then tonight ima ask him abt his gym

just had to make sure he was coming first

[ancient vine]

olso textin at 9am is okay but after midnight is off lmits?

okay bud

[rare oak]

yes bc that's when normal ppl are up

and he knows i don't have bad intentions

[ancient vine]

9am i havent had coffee

doesnt count

as being awake

[rare oak]

i wake up at 6 am usually

[ancient vine]

i wake up at 7

[rare oak]

so why are you waiting 2 hours for coffee

[ancient vine]

because caffeine in the morning is no good

better to wait

[rare oak]

but it's still morning

[ancient vine]

or wight after waking up i mean

i haev my first cup at like 10am

[rare oak]

so you wait 3 hours 😭

[gusty ermine]

Not true

[ancient vine]

ye

[rare oak]

what do you do for those 3 hours then

[ancient vine]

Go about my day

I also wait an hour to eat because I go for runs in the morning every other week

[rare oak]

every other week?

[ancient vine]

Or rather I go for a run then eat breakfast

[rare oak]

that makes sense

[ancient vine]

Yea so this week everyday when I wake up I go for a run

But next week no

[rare oak]

i've never heard of that

[rare oak]

but love that for you

[ancient vine]

Never heard of people going on a run in the morning?

[rare oak]

i have, just not every other week

[ancient vine]

I can’t overtrain my body too much or I’ll get injured so the other week I rest and just go running in the evening

[rare oak]

oh so you run twice a day

[ancient vine]

Yeah but in the evening I run longer than the morning cause I’m actually fuelled up

[rare oak]

for how long/ how much ground do you cover?

[ancient vine]

morning 3km slow pace, evenning 6km high pace

[rare oak]

so you sprinting through sweden full speed at night?

[ancient vine]

not sprinting

i just keep up a high pace

and i run in the outskirts of town where the farms are not in the middle of the town

[rare oak]

light sprinting

[ancient vine]

last 6km Ihad a pace of 5,12 minutes per km

[hollow ingot]

Half of the Arab TikTokers use an AI.

[rare oak]

so you finished in like less than 30 minutes

[ancient vine]

31 minutes

But today I ate better and hopefully I’ll be able to go faster

[rare oak]

yay

what did you eat?

[ancient vine]

Breakfast yoghurt, lunch a sallad with chicken and dinner I had idk what something my mom did with some beef and potatoes

[rare oak]

beef and potatoes 👀

@ancient vine i forgot to ping you 😭

[ancient vine]

Why eyes emoji broski

What’s wrong with that

[rare oak]

nothing, it just sounds good

[wraith totem]

@calm quartz wey, por que me maldijiste así? que te hice yo a ti? ;-;

[ancient vine]

[ancient vine]

No delusion

That’s just the truth

[rare oak]

[ancient vine]

Maybe he had a bad day

[pseudo pine]

Accidentally drop your textbook somewhere (chuck it in his direction and hope you don’t hit someone)

Then you just have to pick it up and say hello! Ez

@rare oak

[rare oak]

i don't have a notebook 😭 i have an ipad

[pseudo pine]

Chuck your person?

“Oops I tripped”

[rare oak]

im not falling in front of this man

[pseudo pine]

I got the perfect solution

Roll 😍

“Oops I rolled”

[rare oak]

“WHOOPS I FELL DOWN 6 ROWS OF SEATS AND INTO YOUR LAP!😍😍”

[pseudo pine]

LOLLLL

[rare oak]

girl bye 😭

[pseudo pine]

LMAOO 😭😭

It will definitely work

I’m convinced

[ancient vine]

Ahh hell yeah you got them cool American classrooms?

That’s so dope wtf

I’m so jealous

[pseudo pine]

American classrooms

??

[rare oak]

ew what

we have a lecture hall

[pseudo pine]

Like the stadium type seating?

[rare oak]

this is what it looks like without exposing my professor

(that's him in the front)

[pseudo pine]

Oo I thought he was talking about the rows that go up a level

[rare oak]

it does go up as the rows go up

yk

like

steps

like steps

[pseudo pine]

Like this I mean (found it off google)

With the desks

Or maybe that

[zenith mason]

.hug @fresh bramble

@stiff dome

[zenith mason]

Ahora sí

[rare oak]

yeah no we have nice seats

with the pull out desks

[pseudo pine]

Ooo yeah we have those in our auditorium as well

[ancient vine]

yeah those

they cool ash

[pseudo pine]

Yeah tbh I can agree I had a study hall in one once and it was so nice and each thing had personal outlets for laptops

Chairs were nice also

[ancient vine]

this how ours look

[ancient vine]

its so ass

[zenith mason]

Yo no hice nada, que pasó

[rare oak]

we have those too, but thats a class

theres a difference here between classes and lectures

lectures have 200 students or so

class has like 30 max

[ancient vine]

oh

back to not liking america then

[rare oak]

guys he left immediately as the professor finished 😍

i didn't even pack up before he was out the door

im cooked

[ancient vine]

he just having a bad day

text him ask him why he didnt talk to you (dont) (in any universe)

[fresh bramble]

I love you

[zenith mason]

.pat me too

[junior crystal]

me too

[rare oak]

that would be so weird 💀😭

never texting that man again 🗣️🔊

[ancient vine]

ok so youre over a seven month long crush like htat

[rare oak]

no, i'll admire from afar

[ancient vine]

aight then

youre dumb

respectfully

[pseudo pine]

Ah see that is more like high school classrooms

@proven shard I keep getting Scotland TikTok’s telling me to go study at universities there 😂

[rare oak]

how so? 😭

you want me to keep trying??

next time i see him will be tuesday

i can try again but i'm not gonna get my hopes up

[ancient vine]

no just let go of it

or actually tell him lmao

two options

[proven shard]

hahahaha i always seen edi and glasgow uni tik toks but thats obviously expected hahahaha

would you ever consider it? 🤨

[rare oak]

tell him that i like him??

ew no

idk man, i dont think im cut out for this

ima just wait and see what happens

probably subtle flirt

[ancient vine]

You said it can’t get any worse right

[rare oak]

and keep it pushing

[ancient vine]

Jesus like you’ve been subtle flirting now??

Stupid

[rare oak]

probably not, any worse would be me not knowing him

[ancient vine]

Respectfully

[rare oak]

i havent been...

[ancient vine]

Well…

Seems to be going good 👍

Soooo keep it up

[rare oak]

wow so kind

[ancient vine]

Okay

What do you want me to say bro

That was the truth it didn’t work

Maybe he a little on the slower side

Not so subtle

Or just less subtle

[rare oak]

so, an obvious not direct flirt

[ancient vine]

Idk what that means I think just do don’t think

That’s what I do

It’s got like a 50/50 success rate

[ancient vine]

Wait I just realised does this mean you haven’t flirted at all or just not subtle

[rare oak]

i havent had the chance to flirt this semester

and he was confusing me last semester + my lab partner also liked him so i couldnt go after him cause she was going after him HARD

[ancient vine]

Dude are you just not into him or something

You got his number

You can flirt over text

You 🫏

[rare oak]

not my fault he was confusing 😭

[ancient vine]

So help him make up his mind and flirt with him

And not an uhhhh flirt do it with confidence so he knows

[rare oak]

but we dont even talk enough for me to do that...

[ancient vine]

I was going to say that you’re going to friend zone yourself then start flirting but forgot you can actually do that

So you should

Just not so much friend zone that he talks about girls with you

[rare oak]

idk what to talk abt with that man

[ancient vine]

Okay… well then maybe if you don’t have enough chemistry with each other to keep a conversation then maybe look somewhere else

Respectfully

Also he does martial arts just ask him about

[rare oak]

i have nowhere else to look

[ancient vine]

Guys like that love to talk about themselves

[rare oak]

noted

i'll ask him abt the gym he goes to

if i ever do talk to him

[ancient vine]

You got a whole campus woman

You got all of America

[rare oak]

boy bye i dont fit america's beauty standard

[ancient vine]

What you’re in a contract

[rare oak]

i fit puerto rico's beauty standards

[ancient vine]

That tells me nothing

[rare oak]

yeah, i meant like if the opportunity presents itself

[ancient vine]

No I just said by the end of this week

[rare oak]

WHAT????

but i dont see him tomorrow

can we extend it to next week

[ancient vine]

Too bad text him

[rare oak]

pleaseeeeeee

[ancient vine]

Nuh uh

[rare oak]

please

[ancient vine]

Then what’s the point

You just pushing it further and further away

Then you got another seven months

And in those months he done looked somewhere else

[rare oak]

okay FINE i'll text him tmr asking abt the test

[ancient vine]

NO

ARE YOU STUPID?

Please man it’s not hard

[rare oak]

man his lab partner last semester is easier to talk to 😭

[ancient vine]

Just ask him how his day was or sum shit

[rare oak]

boy how else am i supposed to start a convo

[ancient vine]

Bro asking about a test omd you need counselling

A dude texts you about a test is your gut reaction ”yea he wants me”

[rare oak]

im a lil delusional

so depends

[ancient vine]

Clearly

[rare oak]

[ancient vine]

Mtfka just ask about something normal

Not some test where he can answer

Yea so basically this

Then you say oh that’s cool

Convo dead after that

[rare oak]

but

at least there was a convo to begin with

[ancient vine]

Yea bro I give up

Your bar is so incredibly low it’s crazy

You can’t be happy with a convo

[rare oak]

i cant?

😭

[ancient vine]

No

Like I really don’t want to have to tell you this

You’re nineteen years of age

Surely you know better

[rare oak]

idk man i forgot what i did in high school

high school me made this look so easy 😭

[ancient vine]

Okay see now I don’t know how to respond

Just do

Like gut feeling

[rare oak]

oh sorry

[ancient vine]

Actually no

Because you are content with a convo

You’ve got to get something from the conversation

Be that just a little flirting or if you grow a pair a date

[rare oak]

maybe not a date

thats scary

wait that sounds like im a child hold on

it's not scary, just nerve wracking

actually, this is all nerve wracking

[ancient vine]

Do you know how distraught I am right now

Genuinely

You can’t have this little game

As a woman

YOU DONT EVEN NEED GAME

[rare oak]

😭

idk how you think women just walk clouds and get what we want cause i certainly dont get what i want

[ancient vine]

Well yeah clearly

Because you don’t realise that it is that easy

[rare oak]

this is making me wanna go to sweden cause is it fr that easy over there???

[ancient vine]

Shiet

No

But I mean

On the right day yea

For women

For men hard work all day of the week

[rare oak]

huh???

wym

[ancient vine]

On the right day it is that easy

[rare oak]

but wym right day

[ancient vine]

I think it’s universal for every dude so I won’t reveal trade secrets

[rare oak]

[ancient vine]

@late mason read this shit and tell me she has game

[rare oak]

😭

i have game, i just cant remember it

[ancient vine]

You settle for a convo

Bro I did when you say that

[rare oak]

i take what i can get

[ancient vine]

I DO NOT KNOW HOW TO RESPOND

[rare oak]

oh

sorry

wont mention again

[ancient vine]

No you can

But it’s like

What do I respond

Now you guide me

Switch roles fully

Because I need to work on my responding to serious things as well

Cause I don’t do well

[rare oak]

um, well first i wouldnt crack a joke if its another person

i like to make jokes cause thats my way of coping

in a sense

[ancient vine]

Okay

That tells me nothing

Now I know how you deal with it how do i respond to it

[rare oak]

what do you want to know specifically

oh

[ancient vine]

How I respond

I don’t understand how I do it

I just say

Oh that sucks

[rare oak]

gimme a sec cause this is hard

idk how you would respond either

i think that sucks is a good one

[ancient vine]

It feels so forced

[rare oak]

another one could be "praying/hopefully you remember soon"

[late mason]

guys there’s so much text

[rare oak]

sorry

[ancient vine]

Okay I’m going to sound like an asshole now, do you remember the stuff you forget? Because I know jack about amnesia

[rare oak]

sometimes

lately ive been remembering bits and pieces of my childhood

but if its something that happens recently i tend to forget it

i forget chunks of stuff

[ancient vine]

Bro I again wtf I feel so sorry for you

You forget stuff from your childhood?

[rare oak]

like ill remember what my mom said 2 months ago but i cant for the life of me tell you what i did yesterday other than take a test

[rare oak]

i forgot my childhood completely

[ancient vine]

Damn that sucks ass

[rare oak]

initially i didnt remember anything after november 21st 2022

the day before the incident

now ofc i remember bits and pieces

[ancient vine]

That sucks so much ass wtf

That’s horrible

[rare oak]

and it helps that my mom was/is like a diary to me so she fills me in on stuff

[ancient vine]

But like unless this is too personal, are you a different person? Like since you forgot stuff from your childhood

[rare oak]

oh, like the other day, i think last week, i met 2 guys that i was apparently close with in hs

[pseudo pine]

So sorry for the late reply I’ve been out all evening, but yeah I’ve looked at study abroad programs! Definitely wouldn’t be against it

[rare oak]

idk if i am, but i do feel different

like i dont recognize myself in photos

not even hs photos

[ancient vine]

Damn

[rare oak]

and my mom says im not 100% back to how i was

[ancient vine]

Is there lika prognosis about when you are

Or if you will be

[rare oak]

i was told ill never be the same

but mainly, doctors dont know

bc not a lot is known abt the brain yet

and apparently i was the worst patient my doctor saw that year, out of 300 patients

[ancient vine]

Damn

That sucks ass

I sound like a broken record

[rare oak]

its okay

i dont mind the questions tho

[ancient vine]

Is there like a scale to how memories go?

[rare oak]

i like educating ppl abt my experience

[rare oak]

wym

[ancient vine]

Like if it’s cherished does it go away harder than some random day

[rare oak]

um, if its a cherished memory i've forgotten, i cry harder abt forgetting it

like yesterday i lost my favorite ring and i dont even remember wearing it yesterday

so i cried real hard last night

[ancient vine]

That sucks

But are you at home around family?

Or do you live at uni

[rare oak]

or like in january 2023 my favorite uncle passed away, and he wanted to talk to me before he passed but i didnt take the phone bc i didnt remember who he was

so i never got to say goodbye

and when i finally remembered i cried for a week ||and i still cry/regret this||

[rare oak]

im at home

i commute

[ancient vine]

That’s nice at least

Couldn’t imagine not having my family there for a thing like that

[rare oak]

yeah, my family were the only ppl that stayed by my side

another weird thing is that my mind went back to when i was 7

thats why i act a lil funny

or not like a 19yr old

hence why a convo means a lot to me

[ancient vine]

Aight

I’m an asshole

[rare oak]

NOOO its okay you didnt know

[ancient vine]

Man

Wtf

I CANT DO SERIOUS CONVERSATIONS WHAT IS WRING WITH ME

[rare oak]

nothing is wrong w you!! youre probably not used to it

[ancient vine]

Yeahhhhh

My mind is blank

Idk what to say

[rare oak]

it's okay, i get that reaction a lot now lol

it's not everyday you interact with someone that almost died in hs!!

[ancient vine]

Yeahhhhhh

Precisely

I’m going sleep now tho that just sounds horrible honestly I wouldn’t wish that on my worst enemy

[rare oak]

it's okay

have fun sleeping!!

Grammar is crazy.

[chrome cobalt]

did u rly add the í to saudi to make it sound more spanish

[hollow ingot]

But that’s why I learn it since I like challenges.

[hollow ingot]

No, because if I don’t add it the stress would be in the u.

[chrome cobalt]

not in español but i get the point

bc in spanish the accent is on the last vowel

arabs say soodi right

[chrome cobalt]

yea ok i get the point

[marsh saffron]

I think the "good practice" standards are different between python and C++, but also I know for C++ it doesnt matter compilation wise

C++ is extremely flexible with letting you do whatever you want haha

[chrome cobalt]

except for the languages being far apart in paradigm and use cases, yeah how exactly you format your code is just preference although there are good practices which are good to follow in most languages

[chrome cobalt]

yeah c++ has a lot of options

the ub is annoying though when u write something that looks fine but because of compiler shenanigans u accidentally sigsev

python has less of that which makes it way more manageable

[marsh saffron]

Idk what you mean by ub

But yes I would agree python is much more managable at the cost of control and efficiency (but I do know a lot of projects dont necessarily need the level of efficiency that C++ can give you)

[chrome cobalt]

array accesses which are valid syntax but break easily

[marsh saffron]

Oh yeah

[chrome cobalt]

yeah, like python a lot because of it it usually just works

haven't been writing much c++ lately been polishing up on webdev

[shrewd notch]

A quien le gusta el Chapulin Colorado?

[hollow ingot]

The default stress in Arabic is in the first syllable.

[hollow ingot]

Many dialects use the second tho’.
But it is an acceptable way, not a correct/standard one.

[marsh saffron]

This has made me immeasurably happy

<@&998293734812811395> How popular is SpongeBob in your country? Does it have a ton of memes like in English-speaking spaces, or is that more The Simpsons?

[sleek moss]

SpongeBob is really popular but I wouldn’t say we have like a ton of SpongeBob memes, I’d say that we have a lot more Simpsons memes

The simpsons it’s a show that anyone has watched here, SpongeBob was really popular, but it was only for a certain period of time and only kids

The amount ls simpsons memes here is like insanely crazy

Mostly because simpsons have a specific scene for basically anything 😭

[lucid verge]

Do most of The Simpsons memes come from the golden era of The Simpsons (so not really the modern seasons)?

[warm niche]

Yeah

[lucid verge]

That’s pretty interesting. So The Simpsons is like Latin America’s SpongeBob.

[sleek moss]

Yeah pretty much

[sleek moss]

Exactly

The simpsons bush meme is prob one of the most overused meme in the Spanish community

But pretty sure the rest of the world has experienced that meme too

[lucid verge]

https://tenor.com/view/the-s-impsons-bush-homer-simpsons-homer-hiding-gif-4325800

It was popular for some time here, too.

I don’t think I really see it that much anymore, though.

Our “that Simpson meme everyone has seen a million times” would probably have to go to Steamed Hams.

https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/simpsons/images/4/45/Steamed_Hams.png/revision/latest?cb=20210624162845

[sleek moss]

I still see it a lot

[sleek moss]

That one too

[lucid verge]

The entire sketch has been turned into pretty much everything.

[sleek moss]

Yeah

The simpsons have a scene for everything

[lucid verge]

You could probably recreate every single piece of media with just clips from The Simpsons and SpongeBob.

[sleek moss]

Fr bro

Istg when I used to watch videos on YouTube

The WHOLE video

Would be full of simpsons memes

Like in between

Not even one second of the videos were wasted

So yeah, simpsons memes are really popular here

[lucid verge]

That’s so interesting that there is an exact counterpart to SpongeBob meme culture in Latin America, and it’s The Simpsons.

I’ve seen snippets of it on this server, so I knew it was pretty famous.

But I didn’t know how famous it truly was until today.

[sleek moss]

Yeah, although tbh the simpsons memes are for like a certain range of people

Like a certain age

Newer generations dont use them anymore

Only the generations that experienced the golden era

[lucid verge]

Ah, that makes sense.

So like Gen X or Millennials.

[narrow nimbus]

lots of anglo media and memes gets incorporated into the spanish community

I think the Simpsons is especially popular in Argentina

so there aren't a lot of SpongeBob memes compared to it

but it can be different in the rest of the region

[sleek moss]

Exactly

[sleek moss]

Not only in Argentina

In Mexico they are really popular

[narrow nimbus]

not only but especially

[sleek moss]

Yeah obviously

[narrow nimbus]

like the amount of memes coming from here is insane

[sleek moss]

Yeah

[hollow ingot]

I’ve found many Spanish memes about cartoons including Spongebob.

[ancient vine]

What would you know about that

[shrewd notch]

en AM aman mucho a spongebob, saint seiya (los caballeros de lo zodiaco), dragonball y holly&Benji

[foggy copper]

You were so lucky to see them

I really wanna see them too

[proper hawk]

Where u live?

They were visible down to Texas here. Which is right above Mexico.

[proper hawk]

There’s probably gonna be more this coming year tbh

[foggy copper]

South europe

[foggy copper]

You're from Texas that's so cool

[proper hawk]

Ohhh yeah idk. I think they might’ve been visible if you were able to get to a rlly empty field

[foggy copper]

I wish

[proper hawk]

Nono, im from Virginia so right next to the capital Washington DC , about 5 hours south of New York City.

Texas is further south than Sicily

[foggy copper]

I know where Virginia is but i thought u were from Texas😭🙏🏻

[proper hawk]

Ohhh lmao.

Idk how much of the states Europeans generally know and I’ve gotten flamed for assuming so I’m extra careful these days

My dad is from Texas tho.

[foggy copper]

I know all of them dw

[proper hawk]

Me too

[foggy copper]

Texas seems nice

[proper hawk]

It’s nice but full of crazy people xD.

Also full of nice people

Texas culture is just kinda weird. Very Texas centric

Delicious food though. And rockets.

[foggy copper]

crazy people😭

[foggy copper]

Would like to visit one day

[proper hawk]

I saw a guy with a giant moustache and cowboy hat there.

He was 100% serious about it.

I asked my dad cause I was like 13 at the time and he said “oh yes they really do exist”

[foggy copper]

That's how we imagine Texas 💀

[proper hawk]

Literally like this

[foggy copper]

HAAHAHA

[proper hawk]

That’s how the rest of America imagines Texas too lmao

And it’s how Texas really is

[foggy copper]

Exactly like this

[proper hawk]

Yeah😭😭😭😭

I was in awe.

I could not believe the Texas man was real.

[foggy copper]

And very Patriotic 🦅

[proper hawk]

They even have their own Texas pledge to the flag😭😭😭

[foggy copper]

I wanna go there😭

[foggy copper]

Wait they do???

[proper hawk]

“Honor the Texas flag; I pledge allegiance to thee, Texas, one state under God, one and indivisible”

Yes😭😭😭

[foggy copper]

What's Virginia like?

[proper hawk]

Lots of trees

Very beautiful

[foggy copper]

I didn't know this 😭😭

[proper hawk]

Pretty much four different states with northern Virginia, Richmond, Virginia Beach, and then the rest of Virginia

The rest of Virginia is suuuuper country southern

Richmond is artsy, northern Virginia is full of government workers and business people (also one of the richest parts of the country), and Virginia Beach….i don’t really go there tbh.

[foggy copper]

I googld looks nice

[proper hawk]

Shenandoah is beautiful

I think it’s in the top ten states with the most trees too

There’s too many trees here.

[foggy copper]

Why not??

[proper hawk]

Just too crowded

I prefer to drive to North Carolina for beaches

Virginia Beach is small and crowded

[foggy copper]

Omg it is

[foggy copper]

I have a friend from there

[proper hawk]

Ooooo nice

Hopefully the hurricane didn’t hit them too hard

[foggy copper]

The US actually has good nature

[proper hawk]

Yeah, I usually rent a cabin there for a few days each summer just to get away from everything. It’s very peaceful there.

[proper hawk]

Yes we do 😄

[foggy copper]

That looks so much fun tbh

[proper hawk]

Thank u native Americans for preserving the nature for thousands of years instead of building cities like the Europeans smh

(All in jest to Europeans)

[foggy copper]

We have nature too😂

[proper hawk]

I know I was joking 😭😭😭

Which we do not have.

[proper hawk]

I literally do not know anybody from Wyoming. But I know it’s very pretty

[foggy copper]

[proper hawk]

Bc nobody lives there 😄

Can’t have problems without people.

[foggy copper]

I didn't excpect it to be that little

[proper hawk]

I mean it’s got a lot of land but

I think only 200,000 people live there?

No. 581,000

wtf that’s a lot more than I thought

[foggy copper]

and I was expecting more than 1M

[proper hawk]

There’s only like 360M in the whole country

[foggy copper]

That's a lot

[proper hawk]

Compared to the amount of useable land not really

China and India have over a billion people

Damn

That’s crazy actually

wtf

[foggy copper]

Ikrrrr

[proper hawk]

Where do they all go???

Damn.

India is tiny compared to china and usa

[foggy copper]

No idea

[foggy copper]

Usa is 4th biggest right

[proper hawk]

Depending on how you calculate land area either 3rd or 4th

If you account for water territory 3rd

If you don’t 4th

[foggy copper]

How many states u been to?

[marsh saffron]

Por què Elden Ring es tan dificíl :(

Most of them were just along the northern corridor

And then Texas Colorado California Florida Idaho Washington state and North Carolina

So actually 18

All the New England states except for New Hampshire and Maine

I appreciate corrections even in my native language since nobody is perfect.
But even for beginners, corrections are more helpful when they are detailed since improving is usually done alone.

No need to say complicated grammar or phonetic terms, simple advice like reading specific books, listening to good content, journalising, etc. always helps others improve.

His English is 100% L1 General American, but if I did see Sora and if he didn’t state that he is a Japanese person named Sora, I would mistake him for a Korean or a Korean American because his speech patterns resemble the ones I know online plus their cultures are similar.

I don’t know what exactly give me the Far Eastern vibes, I can’t notice a foreign accent or grammatical mistakes, but maybe, it is just me; afterall my mind autocorrects the accent and grammar –to the ones I usually hear, if a UK fan, then I hear it Scottish, if an America fan I hear it North American, if a kangaroo fan, I hear it Aussie– when I understand the person who speaks

How do the Far Easterners in London and North America speak? Maybe, they influence him.
Also, do they use words from their languages?

I learn Japanese culture from this person.

[cyan musk]

I'm not sure i get the question. Are you asking how far eastern (Chinese, Japanese, Korean etc) people behave/speak in my country?

Are you also saying that this youtuber plays audio clips from fans around the world and that you group their accents together?

[hollow ingot]

Correct the grammar if any.

[hollow ingot]

Exactly!

I was just tryna blend in.
After all, I wanna gather courage to join VCs since there are no longer asleep ppl around me.

How do the Far Eastern peoples in the Anglosphere speak?
Is it like him?
I wanna know if it is the accent or just his use of the language which gives me Japanese-Korean vibes.

[shrewd panther]

The accents are part of it

[cyan musk]

I've only interacted with the Chinese and Korean people in my area a few times each so I guess the major difference between them and other groups is the level of mannerisms/politeness. They speak quickly and if they aren't as fluent in English (B2 esque) they'll use the sentence structure of their native tongue. They'll bend over backwards if you need help but they're also the most likely to trash talk you to your face in their language.

[boreal osprey]

His English is 100% L1 General American, but if I did see Sora and if he didn’t state that he is a Japanese person named Sora, I would mistake him for a Korean or a Korean American because his speech patterns resemble the ones I know online plus their cultures are similar.
Japanese and Korean are very similar languages, and their speakers have somewhat similar accents when learning english.

I don’t know what exactly give me the Far Eastern vibes, I can’t notice a foreign accent or grammatical mistakes, but maybe, it is just me; afterall my mind autocorrects the accent and grammar –to the ones I usually hear, if a UK fan, then I hear it Scottish, if an America fan I hear it North American, if a kangaroo fan, I hear it Aussie– when I understand the person who speaks
His english is very good, but he does still have a bit of an accent. It's hard to tell exactly what the issue is, since most of his phonemes seem to be fine, but I think it's something to do with word stress and intonation, which are very different in Japanese

How do the Far Easterners in London and North America speak? Maybe, they influence him.
I know a lot of bilingual L1 second-generation english speakers whose L2 parents spoke english with an accent. I don't think the sora is a native speaker because of that, native bilinguals can have accents and interactions between their native languages but the effects are normally very minor (spanish 'a' becoming english 'uh' in unstressed syllables for instance, which is almost imperceptible)

Also, do they use words from their languages?
mm not really outside words that got loaned into english from those languages like 'umami'

[hollow ingot]

It is hard to notice since he speaks far better than many Anglophones IMHO.
But there is something Japanese about the way he speaks; also, Japan shares many cultural aspects with North Korea despite the diffs in language.

[cyan musk]

I think speech pattern is the right word? He may be natively fluent in English but if he lives and speaks Japanese full time day to day he's going to maintain a more eastern flow of speech

[boreal osprey]

My understanding is that native bilinguals tend to have native-like accents in both

That can vary according to how much exposure someone gets ofc

[cyan musk]

There's a large Mexican community in my area and the bilingual kids will speak with more enunciation and a sharper pattern than the monolinguals

I think that's what you were asking? If so, that's what I've observed

[boreal osprey]

Hmm maybe I'm wrong then

I never got that perception that they had accents when speaking chinese, farsi, etc but I am of course not fluent in those languages

[cyan musk]

It depends on a ton of factors so we're probably both right

[boreal osprey]

It would be kind of odd for this kind of thing to not be a spectrum

Oh well I hope we answered the question

[boreal osprey]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simultaneous_bilingualism

interesting stuff

[hollow ingot]

You’re right.
Intonation can be affected by L1.
Even if a person were to master FL intonation, they may use their native language patterns.
e.g. When Italians speak English when the topic about pasta, they may say statement while English natives ask a question.
You like pasta, don’t you?
An Italian would fall his tone, while an Anglophone would raise it, both give L1 vibes, but can reveal where they are from.
I might be wrong.

[hollow ingot]

Exactly.
And that is my goal with both Spanish and English.

Bilingual natives speak correctly with patterns always reveal their identity, and even without the foreign accent, it is still possible to know where they are from; they are clearer and comfier, so the goal to be like them since I’m an Arabic native which can fastilate speaking another language.

[shrewd panther]

Accents are cool

[cyan musk]

Native speaker intonation is probably the last barrier to complete fluency, one from an American perspective I don't think is really required

I'm used to accents from all kinds of native speakers, don't sweat the tiny details too much

[hollow ingot]

I agree.
That’s why I always change mine from a time to a time.

[hollow ingot]

Even if a foreigner does it right, it can be influenced by his L1.
Languages convey cultures and emotions.

[hollow ingot]

Exactly as me.
I always record many accents in different languages for fun.
Most of the time I do that wrong.
But even if I do everything right:
Consonants, vowels, and prosody.
It feels Arabic for me (even if I read another person’s text) unless I mimic another person.

Afterall, emotion is different from a culture to a culture, and they influence the ways ppl speak.

[hollow ingot]

No, small details don’t matter as long as Sora speaks naturally and correctly.

[proper hawk]

So Japanese is a very monotone language with equally stressed syllables unless specified otherwise. It has pitch (high and low) tones but each syllable is the same length. English is not like this it is stress timed. He maintains mostly perfect English vocab and grammar but he accentuates each syllable equally, since that’s what he’s used to living in Japan.

He also speaks rather formally

[hollow ingot]

It is required in some languages.

But English being spoken widely is easy to understand even without being correct.

Our world is plentiful with convoluted ideas. So plentiful that they do not always align. Humans are the holders of such ideas. Because we humans live in society, it becomes our duty to discern the most valuable among them.
It would be reasonable to assert that the more ideas one is exposed to, the closer one is to the most valuable ones. However, common experience tells us that people do not always follow this principle, as bias often comes into play. Sometimes, prior knowledge blinds us to new thoughts. This trait is arguably part of our entrenched behaviour to evade situations that seem unworthy of our time.
Turning to the educational sphere, we should note the reference to ‘educated minds’ from Aristotle's quote. No one is born educated; it is through proper education that we become so. For Aristotle, open-mindedness is inherent to an ‘educated mind’. He praises learned individuals that remain willing to expose themselves to new, diverse ideas, even the potentially flawed ones.
It is crucial that we teach younger generations to maintain this mindset. Open-mindedness allows for new insights, fostering a culture of innovation and growth. Conversely, a lack of open-mindedness can lead to stagnation, as seen in restrictive regimes like North Korea. It also enables us to change our minds when proven wrong, preventing ideological conflicts like those that led to the Spanish Civil War. Lastly, it helps others feel heard, reducing social rejection within society.

I think it sounds good but it does sound like it is kindof written by ai

[sleek moss]

Did it take a lot of time?

[sleek moss]

Check it with an ai detector

[marsh saffron]

Yeah about a week to get the engine to this point

[sleek moss]

Damnnn

Where did u program it?

[marsh saffron]

And Im relearning C++ cause I didnt program for 6 months ish

[sleek moss]

Ohhhh

[marsh saffron]

Its written in C++ on my computer

:p

[sleek moss]

Ohhhh

Isn’t it easier to make visual games like that with python if ur not using like an engine?

[marsh saffron]

It is, but less efficient, and also python does a lot of the hard stuff which I am trying to learn right now

[sleek moss]

Ohhhhhjj

Right

Are u going to use c++ for making games tho?

[marsh saffron]

If you use something like Pygame then every thing I have done so far is already done for you :p but Im trying to make something similar to Pygame for mysellf

Usually I do yeah

[sleek moss]

Ohhhh

Have u tried using unity

I do know ur trynan learn the hard things

[marsh saffron]

I have already made games in Unity, Godot, and Unreal Engine :D

[sleek moss]

Ohhh

[marsh saffron]

As a hobby, I never actually sold them but its really fun to make games imo

[sleek moss]

I have never used Godot is it good?

[sleek moss]

Yeah fr

I’m trying to learn how to program first

It’s fun

[marsh saffron]

If you want to use a premade engine that has a ton of flexibility with very little overhead, Godot is very good in my opinion

But at the time that I was using Godot, it had limitations with graphics and "Flashy stuff" that Unity and Unreal Engine could do

[sleek moss]

which one do u like the most for like, not so basic games but also not as the same level as a AAA game

[sleek moss]

ohhhhhh

[marsh saffron]

I especially prefer Unreal though because of how beautiful you can make it look with little effort, but right now Im trying to make a game that looks like it's running off of a console window, so I dont really want to use any engines for it.

[sleek moss]

ohhhhhh

yeah but i think unreal engine is for like way too realistic games or things like that

[marsh saffron]

Well any engine can be used for any purpose if you know what you're doing but yeah Unreal is definitely meant for prettier looking games

[sleek moss]

ohhhh thanks

hope ur game goes great

[marsh saffron]

Thanks :) so far its been fun but slow

[sleek moss]

yeah obviously, ur making it without an engine, but ur clearly doing great

[quick scarab]

I'm so happy with the new me I'm becoming

My journey began with a simple yet powerful motivation to retire my hardworking parents. Growing up, I witnessed their tireless efforts to provide for our family, and I knew I wanted to give back.

With faith in Almighty God guiding me, I took the leap into dropshipping. Starting from scratch, I faced numerous challenges, but my determination only grew stronger.

Through countless late nights, early mornings, and endless learning, I slowly built momentum. Every small victory fueled my passion, and every setback taught me valuable lessons.

Fast-forward to today, and I'm humbled by the blessings.

The only two bits of advice I totes refuse:
1.Moving to improve instead of the other way around because when I have a bit of money to move, I will have been able to speak all of my target languages like a native by the time (except maybe Jp since I don’t give it much time like others); hence I’ll use my skills to meet natives instead of using them to improve.
2.Favouring understandability to communication and clarity, I don’t mind not being like a native nor perfectly clear, but when I can be accurate and easy to understand, I won’t intentionally break rules.

What matter in language and makes a person fluent are:
1.Mutual understandability.
2.Factuality.
They help communicate clearly more than accents and grammar.
But I wouldn’t say that I’m at this lvl even in my own language since sometimes I share a lot of topics publicly, ppl mistakenly believe they understand, but they mistakenly think it is one topic, so they pretend not to understand me to make me more diverse while they’ve never understood me to begin with.

[teal horizon]

For sure!!!

[hollow ingot]

I’m factual and realistic which is the best I can.

[lost gulch]

Conjugating regular Spanish verbs is actually a lot easier than I thought it'd be-
I'm just worried about...irregular verbs now😱😱🥶🥶..

I was going to go ahead and start making some sentences, but I should probably learn more Spanish grammar before I try that again-

Awwwwhhh so cute!!

[languid citrus]

Aaay, qué ternurita!! Cómo se llama?

[hollow ingot]

“Learning accents” is an imprecise term, yet correct.
Because learning and studying are inherently theoretical which can speed up aquisition and take us to far, but it is not how we get them.
Usage, utilisation, aquisition, and interalisation are the precise terms.
If you use an iPhone, that doesn’t make you a mobile inventor, the same applies to accents, using one doesn’t guarantee you getting close.

I use Indians, Sudanese, Levantines, Egyptians, Indonesians, and Filipinos with lots of work, but eventually, the outcomes are always Saudi-like, not similar to theirs.

So using somebody or something doesn’t mean I’m identical to them.
The same goes to language: I use English and Spanish, but I’m not an Anglophone nor a Hispanic, so even if I express myself like them perfectly, I’ll intentionally make my identity crystal since that doesn’t make me less fluent/native.

It is most precise to say that I’m an Arab of an Anglophone background.

Reminder to self, Spanish sentence structure is generally subject, verb and object (if I'm remembering that right)

[wraith totem]

with how the prounouns work it's hardly ever that clear cut

[lost gulch]

I'd watch the Spanish grammar videos, but usually the ones I find are 30 minutes and my goldfish attention span can't take it😭. You're right, I'll try to find shorter videos about that.

[wraith totem]

right, don't try to swallow more than you can chew

sentence structure isn't learned in a void

[lost gulch]

I found a Spanish grammar playlist that I'll be able to keep up with!
Yeah idk why I stopped looking for grammar videos so soon after seeing the ones I thought were really long-💀. Appreciate the encouragement🙏. I'ma save this and get some rest, gn
