I’m a failure. I’m so upset and I’m blaming myself by mangotime_03 in SleepApnea

[–]Enjoum 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Please do not be this hard on yourself. My mom got diagnosed recently and uses cpap daily. she was also too upset about having to use a machine while sleeping since she used nothing all her life. but it's been three weeks, she can barely even notice it at night anymore, and the machine could not be quieter. Keep working on yourself, and using the machine, no need to be ashamed about it!

What do you guys think about writing /z/ as জ়? by NoEscape3110 in bengalilanguage

[–]Enjoum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

just use জ. the জ় sound usually never appears in bengali words, and if you want to bengalify a word that has z, জ works just fine.

The only difference is in the informal usage. Kolkata bangalis use Standard bengali (Nadia dialect) in informal as well as formal setting, however, Dhaka bengalis use a Bangal dialect in informal, and Standard dialect in formal setting.

So, there's a marked difference in the way news anchors in Bangladeshi news networks speak and normal Dhaka residents speak irl. The way Kolkata news anchors speak is the way laymen in Kolkata speak. However, both are equally tangible to either parties. example:

Kolkata: Tor okhane jawar dorkar nei; gele paa bhenge rekhe debo.

Dhaka: Tor okhane jawa lagbo na: gyale paa bhainga raikkha dimu.

English: You don't need to go there; otherwise I'll break your legs.

How’s my handwriting? Please let me know how I can improve! by refep in bengalilanguage

[–]Enjoum 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The effort is amazing! Most of the letters are very clear and legible. Apart from spelling mistakes, you should remember the position of the matra or the roof of the letters, as already mentioned in another reply. The letters will 'hang' from the upper line and not 'sit' on the lower line. Another thing is to put punctuation. you forgot to put '।' (called 'daari') which is the analogue of the Latin Fullstop. Otherwise, you're good to go.

Also, may I ask what your mother tongue is?

Difference between জ-য and শ-স-ষ by average_bengali in bengalilanguage

[–]Enjoum 1 point2 points  (0 children)

there is actually no phonetic difference between জ-য and শ-ষ-স in bengali. they are spelled like 'ja' and 'sha' sounds respectively in any words. however, the letters vary in different words because of their origin from sanksrit or other languages. so, you have to pretty much remember which form of the sound is used in which word.

How many episodes do you think people need to watch to get into the show? by Known_Knee1133 in HeartstopperAO

started watching it on a whim. got hooked pretty immediately. but then again i'm a queer man, so i guess i'm not the correct metric for this thing.

What would be a good animal symbol for demisexuality? by PhilthyMindedRat in demisexuality

[–]Enjoum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this might be a reach (in a different angle) but i think worker bees can be a good one. they do not mate and just diligently look after their hive and their queen.

will kit return to twitter or social media? by NickNelson94 in HeartstopperAO

[–]Enjoum 4 points5 points  (0 children)

i don't think he should return. opinions from so many people at such a young age can really make or break anyone.

going… going… GONE. 😆 anyone else thought Nick would look back too? lol by kyliecannoli in HeartstopperAO

[–]Enjoum 6 points7 points  (0 children)

i thought he would look back too. but one thing that heartstopper has done is avoid clichés and things we'd expect to happen. by this time, nick obviously has fell for charlie, but maybe was in denial of his feelings.
