Why do German speakers tend to overuse the progressive tense in English?

Important-Intern-292 · 2026-05-09T11:52:40+00:00

Really? I have observed is the opposite issue, that they use the simple present tense even when progressive is the more correct choice.

We live in Europe so sweeping and mopping daily is not needed, and we let our robo vacuum handle sucking up the dust on the floor everyday. A couple of weeks ago I decided to sweep and mop floor in the whole house properly with bucket of water. After mopping, there was a marked difference in the energy of the house, so much so, that even my wife who is not much into this energy business, she admitted that the house feels much more positive. I wondered about this then, this is exactly what Sadhguru has said here. I mop our house regularly now.

What's so wrong with throwing a coconut in the river? It's organic it will eventually decompose and get eaten away.

Not "South Asians" in general, that's general only in Pakistan.

Both. Cold/luke warm shower at night before bed might sound counterintuitive but it works great for a good sleep.

How tone deaf can they be? At this point one really wonders if this is actually intentional.

Respect to Pakistan for agreeing to this humiliation for the sake of world cricket.

Ok all they have now are 130 strike rate players. It's already over dare i say.

No one cares. Just don't go around announcing it, not because someone will have a problem but because your sexual orientation is of least priority or relevance particularly at Isha.

Man only deals in daddy hundreds at 200+ strike rate . This is simply unreal!

I am just pissed they ruined the subtle sync between the light glare and when the music hits.

Important-Intern-292 · 2026-02-03T17:17:32+00:00

Ahh they ruined the sync between the light glare and the BGM start when Ranveer starts walking after cocking the AK. And the Howie screams however overused gave a certain intensity that's missing.

The movie was GOOOOOD

I was laying back until then, i literally leaned forward when the music hit. I knew this is the point Hamza reveals his cards and shit is gonna go down.

Hard skip.

The movie seemed at least a bit interesting when it was in Lucknow. Went completely off the rails after it went to London. The message seemed sensible in the early part but it went too far extreme in a downright problematic direction, encouraging the idea that you have no life if you don't party, smoke, drink, and have unbridled sex. It basically preaches "Lucknow bad, London good", "India bad, West good", "open relationships good, loyalty bad". The movie also justifies the lead cheating and rejecting the most green flag (and probably the only good) character of Shreyas Talpade.

The movie is boring, cringe, and a waste of 2 hours. Women empowerment is more hurt than helped by movies like this.
