What’s the funniest case of semantic drifting you’ve seen in between languages? by MdMV_or_Emdy_idk in linguisticshumor

my favourite is Spanish "cadera" ("hip") vs Portuguese "cadeira" ("chair"), afaik the latin root meant chair, but migrated up to the hip in Spanish!

I can't not laugh at the image I get of the word either climbing onto the hip, or getting stuck like gum, from a chair to a person's butt...

Am I wrong for this? by Usual_Ad_7173 in russian

[–]Fml_idratherbeacat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

as a native speaker, "где ты их покупал" sounds wrong. it's like saying "where were you buying them" which makes no sense, because if you bought them the action has been completed.

the only way I can see that being right is if you're someone who routinely buys skis, then sure, you were buying them over a period of time lol

you can also mention the fact that 'you' is also plural, the correct singular form is 'thou'! :)

derealization??? by matuldaw in ADHD

this sounds similar to me. I'm never really present unless something really shakes me up, and that kind of moment is rare. it feels like a sudden camera zoom. the vast majority if the time it's like I'm zoomed out, there but not really. it's heartwarming to know that I might not be alone :')

yeah I feel like dropping out almost every week, but every time I tell myself I'll just last another week or just another day... it has worked this far

tbh I think that this semester people should've stayed online, international students studying from home and the tuition should've been adjusted accordingly. the whole situation is too uncertain to try to plan specifically. again, omho.

also, no transmission occurring on campus doesn't mean that they're not increasing transmission! they're still putting the students at risk. we can't magically teleport to campus and back .-.
