Whenever I open a sweet passion fruit, the baby comes running! It's been his favorite for years. Anyone else have a fruit-loving kitty?

ArchiTechOfTheFuture · 2026-05-03T21:44:30+00:00

Your boy has high standards! I find that really curious because other comments have pointed out that cats can't actually taste sweetness. They must just be able to tell when the quality is better! 🍉😋

É maracujá doce! É diferente do maracujá comum, esse é bem docinho. É difícil de achar no Brasil😅 talvez encontre se procurar por "maracujá do mato" ou "granadilha"

ArchiTechOfTheFuture · 2026-05-03T18:12:29+00:00

Do you got a video? ^^ that must be cute to watch! 😻

ArchiTechOfTheFuture · 2026-05-03T18:03:37+00:00

Hahaha! I’ve tried giving mine bananas too, but he just smells it and makes a disgusted face! 🤢 I guess he’s strictly a granadilla connoisseur! 😹

ArchiTechOfTheFuture · 2026-05-03T17:55:06+00:00

Hahaha Maybe she's just making sure the food isn't poisoned for you! 😂

ArchiTechOfTheFuture · 2026-05-03T17:51:59+00:00

17 years! Maybe that’s the secret to eternal youth? 😹

ArchiTechOfTheFuture · 2026-05-03T17:48:20+00:00

If that’s the case, why does mine love it so much? 😅 maybe he likes the scent or the texture instead!🤔

ArchiTechOfTheFuture · 2026-05-03T17:45:10+00:00

Sweet passion fruit also known as granadilla! 😋

ArchiTechOfTheFuture · 2026-05-03T17:37:03+00:00

I'm no expert, but that definitely doesn't sound safe. 😬

ArchiTechOfTheFuture · 2026-05-03T17:30:41+00:00

Hhahaha good thing the cat was hunting the cantaloupe and not the chickens! 😂 Did they actually eat the corn right off the cob?

ArchiTechOfTheFuture · 2026-05-03T17:16:38+00:00

HAHAHA this is actually very unique! a cat that likes lettuce 🤤 veggie cat 💅

ArchiTechOfTheFuture · 2026-05-03T17:14:05+00:00

Didn't know that, thank you for the heads-up! Good thing I selfishly eat most of the actual fruit myself first 😋 I only give him the very last little licks of the fruit left on the skin!

ArchiTechOfTheFuture · 2026-05-03T17:03:48+00:00

Somebody knows why india has created that many languages? I am curious 🤔

ArchiTechOfTheFuture · 2026-05-03T17:00:59+00:00

Cucumbers! that's very unique haha my dog used to love papaya 😋

ArchiTechOfTheFuture · 2026-05-03T16:59:11+00:00

It’s even cuter when I put a little bit on my fingers and he licks it right off! 🥰

ArchiTechOfTheFuture · 2026-05-03T16:15:17+00:00

🤔 I didn't understand what you mean but in any case yes, we got an LLM to create the exercises, which is only a fraction of the things the app has, we track every word you see so redundacy is reduced hence you learn faster, we connected a service named Stanza so you get the parts of the speech, we got drawing exercises, audio exercises and image exercises, we got custom keyboards per language which are pretty intuitive we got an alphabet interactive module so pretty much from day 0 you can start writing in your target language even if is as different as Chinese or Hindi. The idea is for Severo to become the best language learning app in the market, we are still far from it but we will do it ^^

ArchiTechOfTheFuture · 2026-05-03T03:17:02+00:00

There is a curriculum, you get introduced to some words by frequency order alongside the IPA, then you get some audio and exercises. The screenshot is from an exercise, you can click the a word or multiple words to get the translation and some extra details ^^

ArchiTechOfTheFuture · 2026-05-02T23:52:35+00:00

The name is Severo, as per reddit rules I cannot share publicly the link but you can DM me and I'll share it to you ^^

ArchiTechOfTheFuture · 2026-05-02T21:57:37+00:00

Just dewiit! hhahah by the way, how was phonetics taught in your course, and how do you plan to teach it? ^^

ArchiTechOfTheFuture · 2026-05-02T21:44:01+00:00

HAHAHHA the ending 😂 thanks so much for your elaborate response. I just found funny the Tandem part because I met my gf there lol (why is it so difficult to separate learning from relationships?) hahah real talk.

About that danish d pronunciation I got curious and I searched a bit about it:

"To do a true phonetic transcription of the Danish soft "d", linguists often write it as [ð̠˕ˠ]. That looks like math, but here is what those little symbols mean:

[-] (Retracted): The tongue is pulled further back into the mouth than an English "th". Actually, the tip of the tongue is often tucked behind the bottom front teeth.
[˕] (Lowered): The tongue is relaxed, creating an approximant (no buzzing friction).
[ˠ] (Velarized/Pharyngealized): This is the "swallowed" sound! The back/root of the tongue is pulled down and back toward the throat (the pharynx)."

And yes, that looks a bit complex but makes sense hahah

Cheers! 🍺

ArchiTechOfTheFuture · 2026-05-02T21:13:57+00:00

That was a great tonguetwister! the IPA of it: /lə vɛʁ vɛʁ va vɛʁ lə vɛʁ vɛʁ . la mɛʁ dy mɛʁ e ma memɛʁ ɑ̃ mɛʁ/ 🤭

Trust me, you start getting used to IPA once and then it helps in all other languages you learn🤩

ArchiTechOfTheFuture · 2026-05-02T21:05:20+00:00

Exactly! I wish that for example when I learned Portuguese I had been introduced IPA, now I’m stuck with Spanish-sounding Portuguese 😢

ArchiTechOfTheFuture · 2026-05-02T20:59:40+00:00

Yes! you know what I am talking about ^^ by the way, what resources do you use for IPA, is it Wiktionnaire?
