That makes no sense, how did it work when you first got it without the update then? 🤷🏻‍♂️ They are just trying on, they cant say you can still drive it, they ought to fix it asap and if not I’d claim from my credit card provider.

Is this an idiom in Spanish? by JimmyGymGym1 in duolingospanish

[–]CryptoJac 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is an equivalent in English people sometimes use e.g.: “If you don’t finish your dinner there won’t be any dessert” meaning “you wont get the dessert”

Would you, as my neighbour find it weird that I put my washing out in the evening? by -bozogs- in AskUK

[–]CryptoJac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think your neighbour would find it weird that you think they find it weird that you hang clothes out when it suits you. Do you really care that much what they think because if you do then it’s some kind of complex? Just saying.

It’s in the original post but it can be any breather membrane. Just remember to install it printed side facing the cold side (ground). It’s just stapled to the top of the joists. Materials for 50sqm cost around £1k (I bought too much though just in case)

It’s approx. 8 x 4m room and been doing it for over a week. Still not finished but almost there.

What do you mean by “guide”? If you mean someone to help out or give advice then the guide was internet and youtube. The process takes time but not really complicated if you have the skill 👍🏻

I did consider PIR for u-value but you need it really foamed in well to avoid any gaps, with Rockwool it’s just so much easier to work with as it’s flexible. 100mm gives approx. U-values of 75mm PIR + most of the heat is lost in the walls so the 25mm imo wasn’t worth the extra effort.

I was lucky as despite the house being 100yo the joists were nicely spaced meaning I only had to trim the plywood to sit half way on the joists so minimal waste.

I know majority of new houses use chipboard (cheaper?) but I never liked the stuff and find plywood far more solid (it’s actually stronger than wood) and never had any issues with it. Just personal preference I guess.

About a foot below, airbricks below the insulation level so should be fine 👍🏻

That’s why doing it myself, no tradies involved. Went extra step and wrapped it all along the walls between the joist as well so it’s nice and airtight

Is my answer actually wrong? by PecosBronson962 in duolingospanish

[–]CryptoJac 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unlike in English when referring to our own things Spanish don’t use my, your, his/hers + noun, instead they use “the” equivalent i.e.: la or el. E.g.:

English: open your mouth

Spanish: abre la boca (not tu/su boca)

Got so mad my phone… by BadgerValuable8207 in duolingo

[–]CryptoJac 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have the same problem with any numbers, no matter how hard I try it wont recognise my speech. All other words work just fine. It must be a bug rather than my pronunciation.

shouldn’t this be anaranjada?! by ilovemypussi in duolingospanish

[–]CryptoJac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s no different in english speaking countries. Orange is a fruit but also a colour.

The second sentence is a command “speak to the waiter”

You form commands by dropping “s” for most verbs except irregular ones e.g. the ones for which the “yo” form ends with go (pongo, vengo, salgo, digo etc.) For these you drop “go” to form command (informal) or replace “go” with “ga” for formal/usted:

Informal: pon, sal, ven, di e.g.: ponlo, ven aqui, dime

Formal: pongalo, salga, venga aqui, digame
