Please be patient

Our volunteers look into many questions every day; sometimes it takes them a little while to answer.

Pro tip: you can rename the thread title with `.tr <thread name>`

Make it descriptive, including relevant context, but also to the point. This way you improve your chances of getting a more relevant and specific answer.

Yeah

#

But it's like "in my opinion"

#

Ig à mon avis is closer to that

#

But there isn't really a difference

#

Maybe selon moi is more like "if you ask me"

#

That's why it can feel like you wanna give a negative opinion
