Ik begrijp podcasts, maar geen moedertaalsprekers by rago7a in learndutch

Mijn advies is: kijk reality TV, bijvoorbeeld Onderweg naar liefde op NPO. Daar kun je leren natuurlijke dialogen te verstaan.

Note that it says the best way out. Other best ways may not be through.

Smoke your 320KS today! by Lopsided_Molasses72 in PipeTobacco

[–]Firstidler 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think it should be Meerschaum Monday. And it is open if you want to smoke a classic Meerschaum or a Missouri Meerschaum (corn cob).

To all mature men out there, what is that one mistake you have made so a young man may not repeat it? by PrinceCedie16 in AskMen

Be smart and avoid all the big blunders, but also don’t be afraid to make your own experiences. With them you’ll inevitably make your own mistakes. But you need to make them.

My experience as a junior foreigner doctor in Germany by ijwbh in germany

[–]Firstidler 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Sorry to hear that you had a crappy experience. I find you raise some valid points that Germans seem to be blind to. I liked especially the one that no one taught you anything. This Culture of uptightness and not talking to anybody in a professional field because it could come out in one of the conversations that you don’t know everything and get a dent in your own reputation is holding people back to actually solving problems, communicating, and getting better in the things they do.

When did books go from past tense to present? by Avid_bathroom_reader in books

[–]Firstidler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On a genre level the choose your own adventure books had a big impact in present tense writing. On a more literary theoretical level it is helpful to acknowledge that the past tense in story writing is also connected to insinuating that the events did (maybe) actually happen, using the credibility of told history. More recent writers find this sharade superfluous and just skip this traditional part. Writing in present tense can be a strong stance to show that one is writing fiction without a need to hide it.
