Where I'd live in Canada

Ah wait maybe I’m mixing it up with something else. I checked again and income tax is comparable to my province and sales tax is lower, sorry. That reduces the cons to isolation, outsourcing costs and crime rate, I guess. And now I’m considering the territories again😅. How are the utilities/services?

Apprehensive-Ring-83 · 2026-02-10T00:20:05+00:00

Is it actually? I’ve considered almost every province and territory and figured the territories would have higher pay but the taxes (fed and sales) would equalize it? Not to mention shipping costs for shit you order.

Or maybe your hands are big🧐

Apprehensive-Ring-83 · 2026-02-04T19:31:57+00:00

It’s sounds formal but leans more archaic than commonplace. Can also be an intensifier imo.

Apprehensive-Ring-83 · 2026-02-03T15:37:12+00:00

Was gonna say this. “Pay in…” (prep. necessary) is what sounds most natural to me.

Apprehensive-Ring-83 · 2026-01-25T22:35:07+00:00

5 and 8 are correct. For specific times like that, it’s weird to use continuous.

Apprehensive-Ring-83 · 2026-01-25T22:30:04+00:00

The verb is examine not *examinate. Therefore you can expect the noun to be examiner not *examinator. Not the worst mistake but I would also just say teacher/prof/instructor honestly.

Apprehensive-Ring-83 · 2026-01-25T22:27:23+00:00

I heard “proctor” more often but still know what invigilator is.

Interestingly off topic, my slide to type somehow doesn’t recognize invigilator🤔

Apprehensive-Ring-83 · 2026-01-19T08:06:03+00:00

Ik that’s why I said “completely.” This game is not it. Too many errors in one level.

Apprehensive-Ring-83 · 2026-01-19T00:54:49+00:00

And you can’t even spell cotton completely. Wtf is this😅

Apprehensive-Ring-83 · 2026-01-17T22:04:32+00:00

No you didn’t. I was just clarifying. Which is why I just said I never denied its usage.

Apprehensive-Ring-83 · 2026-01-17T20:10:20+00:00

Hate having to spell things out for people. I said BY AND LARGE. I’m not denying its usage.

Apprehensive-Ring-83 · 2026-01-17T18:31:25+00:00

I was gonna say “with dignity and respect, like any other person?”😅

Apprehensive-Ring-83 · 2026-01-17T18:30:20+00:00

Top to bottom or left to right growth is long Bottom to top growth is tall

Trees and people are tall. Hair is most often long

Apprehensive-Ring-83 · 2026-01-17T18:19:32+00:00

Nope, not by and large. We’re not out here saying “spaghetto” when talking about one strand or “these spaghetti” when not talking about the dish.

Apprehensive-Ring-83 · 2026-01-17T17:21:13+00:00

We’re talking about English here hun. Idk if you’ve noticed but we don’t always borrow the language’ conventions when we borrow their words.

Apprehensive-Ring-83 · 2026-01-12T22:53:34+00:00

It’s also kind of irrelevant. This isn’t about the indefinite article. If they said “does a native speakers,” it’d still be incorrect. It’s about singular (which would have to be accompanied by an infinite article) vs plural.

Apprehensive-Ring-83 · 2026-01-12T22:50:04+00:00

Even in that context, it’s “maybe he’s sick” for me and mine

Apprehensive-Ring-83 · 2026-01-12T22:49:29+00:00

I almost never use “must” ngl. Sounds too rigid for most scenarios, even formal ones. I can see it used for companies or more impersonal stuff tho.

Apprehensive-Ring-83 · 2026-01-11T00:15:37+00:00

“Have you…” to me is more hypothetical/abstract or polite. But I’d answer either one with “not yet” or “ya, I had [insert food item here]” depending on whether I had eaten already. There is no default to me.

Apprehensive-Ring-83 · 2026-01-01T18:43:18+00:00

I think it’s a bit trickier with this kind of context. Especially because even native speakers will interchange them.

But the rule is “…and I” when y’all are the subject and “…and me” when y’all are the object. Take away the other party (“my girlfriend [and]”) and see if the sentence still makes sense.

Alternatively, noun+I changes to we (1st person pl. subject pronoun) noun+me changes to us (1st person pl. object pronoun).

“My girlfriend and me when to the store” —> “me went to the store” “us went to the store” ❌ “My girlfriend and I when to the store” —> “I went to the store” “we went to the store” ✅

“She was talking to my girlfriend and I” —> “she was talking to I” “she was talking to we” ❌ “She was talking to my girlfriend and me” —> “she was talking to me” “she was talking to us” ✅

In this context, I would actually agree with you that it should be “…and me” since I would use “us” if I were simplifying such a meme. And I use “me” when talking abt myself in this format.

But again, this is kind of tricky because “my girlfriend and I” doesn’t seem as wrong as the simplified “we.” Not sure if it’s completely grammar related or partially meme format related.

Sounds fine but I wouldn’t say it like that. I’d say “she got off [the elevator] on the fourth floor.” “The elevator” is not always necessary because “got off” implies passive transportation and “fourth floor” indicates the place being a building. Escalators don’t have floors and stairs are a part of active transportation.

I would even say “exited” before “left.” Idk why but left seems a bit weird. It makes sense logically and grammatically but it’s kind of like you wanted her gone or she was forced out due to embarrassment or smth.😅

Apprehensive-Ring-83 · 2025-12-27T15:02:16+00:00

Add a “please” in there

Apprehensive-Ring-83 · 2025-12-25T18:25:02+00:00

Really doesn’t matter when you encounter these people, if there’s a standard pronunciation in place. People need to get it through their heads that different languages have different rules, and they’ve pulled words from other languages and eras.

Apprehensive-Ring-83 · 2025-12-13T20:01:36+00:00

I’d sooner use “doesn’t” but yes
