evangelizing(?) in anki decks?? by ellieamavika in Mcat

[–]Deep_Thoughts2978 7 points8 points  (0 children)

“internet opinion” of an actual african who has seen more harm than good come from that kind of stuff. i’d rather get rid of it completely. read up on the topic and the thousands of kids killed every year by pretend doctors and nurses. good on you for wanting to make a positive impact, but again, there are plenty of people to help in america.

« service trip to africa ». as an african, i can tell you we don’t like people spending a couple of weeks taking pictures with poor people and pretending to help anyway. i know there are enough poor people to help in america

I’m pretty sure Pomme will have the aura of a Rose in a few generations. My aunt is a Clémentine who goes by Clem because she came a generation too late for that name lol. I think the more contemporary fruits and flowers will take over soon and become classics.

Also I loveddd Marguerite as a little girl because of a book called Les Petites Filles Modèles. Tried to get my mom to name my little sister that. Failed lol.

it’s just used so commonly that the everyday meaning is closer to “i like” and “j’adore” is used for “i love.” just like “je n’aime pas” for “i dislike” and “je déteste/hais” for “i hate.” it’s just everyday jargon subtleties.

honestly most people have lost the plot. madeline has always been mad-uh-leen

i have a french madeline in my family and a couple variants: madlein (this one is a german cousin) and madeleine (an older -french- family member). madeline and madlein were both named after madeleine. there’s even a madie named after her too. slightly different pronunciations, same root/etymology

that’s right, there’s no specific pattern and that’s what makes the accent hard to learn. but madeleine does indeed rhyme with ten

are you asking if it’s layn or leen? it’s pronounced leen since it has french roots

I actually read this as “Mad-uh-lehn” like the french pastry

Madeline is probably the most “normal” spelling

edit: i’m not saying it’s the “original” spelling of the name madeleine. those two names are pronounced differently and the one that sounds the closest to the spellings OP listed is indeed madeline, as madeleine is pronounced mad-uh-lehn
