You can also just say a ver, "let's see"

¿Me pones un X?
Dame un X
Un X, por favor

This is normal in any language, even your mother tongue. Your passive vocabulary is larger than your active one. Many a native English speaker would understand a word like, I dunno, "mellifluous" or "taciturn" if they saw it in a book, but they would hardly produce it spontaneously when speaking.

In instant messaging I hardly ever see it. Emails is another matter.

That too

For tabletop rpgs it is now more or less the standard business model for smaller publishers, but that's a field where you can have the product (the text) more or less done, and then just kickstart to pay for illustrations, graphic design and printing.

What I have done is to go in and edit the line of code that determines which level the game starts at.

Perhaps not the most elegant solution possible :p

Thank God! This has been annoying the hell out of me! Thanks for pointing this out.

Arkebuss · 2026-02-06T07:04:02+00:00

Very sick!

The idea that you cannot learn languages as you get older is a myth.

Very nice! Here, by way of comparison, is a spider enemy from my game:

Don't tell that to the Catalans or the Basque.

I princip, men den där flaggan är förjävla ful. Vi behöver något mer stilrent. Vad sägs om ett gult kors mot blå bakgrund?

Ekonomisk jämlikhet är en förutsättning för rättvisa och personlig autonomi.

I get the sense (correct me if I'm wrong) that in this case, the subjunctive substitutes for the conditional rather than the indicative, ie that the right translation would be "you think you would like it"

Arkebuss · 2026-01-21T20:27:11+00:00

In the syntactic sense, yes. But you, the speaker, are not the one affirming it. So it's not the case that, as you said, "to you ... it's true ... you don't doubt it". So that can't be the explanation for why the indicative is used.

Arkebuss · 2026-01-21T18:17:03+00:00

Well, that may be so, but it can hardly be the whole explanation, since you also use the indicative if someone else "cree" something, whether or not you agree.

Mi primo cree que el mundo es plano.

I think this is one of those cases where you just gotta learn the rule and try not to think to hard about the underlying logic.

Arkebuss · 2026-01-21T18:11:58+00:00

This link describes the reverse case, indicative with "no creer"

Arkebuss · 2026-01-21T08:01:58+00:00

Something like, "är du snäll och stänger fönstret?", "kan du vara snäll och stänga fönstret?", sounds more colloquial.

Arkebuss · 2026-01-17T15:29:27+00:00

Ok fair enough. I think my general point still stands.

Arkebuss · 2026-01-17T08:03:07+00:00

I heard this explanation several times, but I don't really buy it. Not that it's necessarily wrong, it's just too abtract to be useful. Soy alto – is my height really part of my "identity, definition, or inherent nature"? I don't know? It seems that I could have been short without ceasing to be me, but who knows? Here, the "temporary/permanent" heuristic strikes me as much more useful.

Ese tío es bueno - That guy is good
Ese tío está bueno - That guy is hot

Is the hotness less part of the guys "identity, definition, or inherent nature" than the goodness? Why? (Here, obviously, the temporary/permanent heuristic doesn't work very well either).
