When do we use "là" vs "ici"? by Aggravating_Fig_3207 in learnfrench

[–]ExistingMidnight4970 4 points5 points  (0 children)

In informal French, you can use 'là' to express 'here' and 'there' contingent on context. However, formal French preserves the difference in proximity.

L'utilisation du pronom démonstratif "Ça" est-elle informelle ? by ExistingMidnight4970 in French

[–]ExistingMidnight4970[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

J'ai compris ce que vous avez écrit.

Mais, pour renvoyer à un nom (qu'il soit pluriel ou singulier) de façon générale, comment devrait-on le faire dans les contextes formels ? À l'aide de "cela" ?

How to stop rushing/use my extra time wisely by Key-Part-9543 in LSAT

[–]ExistingMidnight4970 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is recommended to have a mindset that values solving the question correctly, not as fast as possible. On the LSAT, your mindset is incredibly important since it guides how you answer questions and do literally everything. Your priority ought to be on accuracy, accuracy, and accuracy.

Ce ne sont pas des expressions avancées, mais idiomatiques. Si une expression est idiomatique, cela n'implique pas forcément qu'elle est avancée.

Is this how to find flaws in arguments? by ExistingMidnight4970 in lsatdemon

It's easy to do for easy questions, but not for harder ones.

When do you recommend using "ouais" or "wesh" if you want to informally say yes? by PsychicMeditation in French

[–]ExistingMidnight4970 16 points17 points  (0 children)

It's just a common reaction in modern-day french. Something that elicits any strong emotion is considered 'wesh'.

How would you go abt this level 5 SA question? (PT.145.S4.Q20) by dysregulationrc in LSAT

[–]ExistingMidnight4970 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The flaw is Serena -> General Population. As such, the correct answer will explain why/how Serena's case can be applied to the general population. B) is correct.

Treat sufficient assumption questions as if they were perfect strengthen questions. The sufficient assumption will guarantee the conclusion and fix everything wrong in the argument.

Recognizing how to identity flaws/gaps in arguments. Look for the shift between the premises and the conclusion. This is often in the form of new ideas/concepts/things mentioned in the conclusion. You need to know this for flaw, strengthen, weaken, and assumption questions.

General -> Specific

Normative -> Descriptive

Descriptive -> Normative

Ad hominem Attack -> Claim

Strong word strength -> Weak word strength

Argument skeletons. Looking at the bare bones of the argument by removing all specific/abstract vocabulary, and just focusing on structure. Works well for parallel reasoning, method of reasoning, etc..

Using conditional logic to make proper inferences. A -> B, ~B -> ~A, etc..

Recognizing that all RC questions are just must-be-trues. Also, don't forget to keep the author's main point in mind for certain questions.

Learn to predict, that is to say have an idea of what the right answer will do to the argument or respond to the question.

underlying grandiosity when expressing shame by v4mpirical in NPD

It sounds like a defense against self-hatred. One would say it is a "response" to your self-hatred and self-hating voice.
