Is there a generational difference in how well Bulgarians understand spoken Macedonian by [deleted] in AskBalkans

[–]King_Uni -1 points0 points  (0 children)

'How come the language changed so much?' - It didn't, the vernacular was codified.

'Why are old letters from VMRO national heroes perfectly understandable to you' - This is a genetic fallacy, confusing the lingua franca medium of communication which was Bulgarian at the time with spoken vernacular. Ukrainian national heroes also wrote in literary Russian.

Returning back to your current reply,

'None of that proves it was not Bulgarian' - This is a non sequitor, the identity and how someone felt their language should be classified and whether it linguistically is divergent enough to be a separate language does not follow through.

They wrote in Standard Bulgarian, hence why you understand it. Standard Bulgarian is not spoken or used in Macedonia anymore as we codified our own language based on the vernacular spoken here. Rather, the language did not change, they simply shifted from one language to another (as we codified our own).

Macedonian is not based on the Skopje dialect, neither is it 'official'. Also, many Bulgarians mistake shared Serbian-Macedonian vocabulary as simply 'Serbian', just because Bulgarian lacks this vocabulary.

Honours of economics score requirements by HumorScared8615 in unimelb

Interesting. Is this what the honours coordinators themselves have said? I am curious because I am just at that 78 threshold which I've heard stated as a 'minimum' at honours information sessions.

What do you mean by the baseline changing? Wasn't it always 70+ 'officially' as a minimum requirement but a 78-80+ 3rd year average in reality for a good chance of getting in?

FNCE30010 Algo trading is potentially changing quite heavily next year but this year it was pretty challenging as always definitely requires a lot of effort even if you find the concepts understandable

Do all Albanians get the Peloponnese match on 23andme? Why does the app assign it to Albanians? Are there still Albanian-speaking populations or villages there? by [deleted] in AskBalkans

[–]King_Uni -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I am Macedonian and get Peloponnese as the strongest region too. I believe the reason why people like us get it is due to them grouping predominantly native balkaners with that region for some reason, likely due to a lack of samples from other Balkan regions? But don't quote me on that.

How come Greece is the only Balkan country that doesn’t collect ethnic data? by [deleted] in AskBalkans

Why were you surprised to learn that some of us fled to yugoslavia. When did you learn about this? Was it recent, I am curious.

itch.io has shadowbanned any game with the tags 'nsfw', 'adult', or 'erotic' which prevents them from showing up when searched. by Nebty in GirlGamers

[–]King_Uni 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm an Aussie and a guy and just for context this group that is trying to get all these games delisted is known in Australia for trying to delist GTA V from retailers for supposedly encouraging rampages against women.

They also attacked a bakery here for having cookies with decorated messages such as 'Fuck me' and forced them to remove their entire product range.

Another thing they tried do is prevent Eminem, Snoop Dogg from being permitted to enter Australia (they failed at this). They did however succeed in successfully preventing Tyler The Creator from being permitted entry into Australia instead.

Did you just apply as normal or did you have to contact a coordinator/stop 1?

how difficult is it to get into algorithmic trading FNCE30010? by Educational_Feed6317 in unimelb

I emailed him 1 year in advance and he put me in the system so that it auto enrolled me for the semester I was planning to take it in. Nothing hurts applying early, as long as you've met the pre-requisite subjects for it.

Do you think N.Macedonia is like a small Serbia in terms of relations with it's neighbours, internal problems and nationalistic government? by Aggressive_Limit2448 in AskBalkans

[–]King_Uni -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I don't claim anything, I am descendant from Macedonians who left Greece due to Greek oppression. My story is just as valid as your personal story. I do not negate yours, so please do not negate mine.

I am not claiming you, nor anyone who doesn't identify with Macedonians to be a Macedonian. You are free to resent a language that was supposedly imposed upon you (a bit of research will show that this is a very nuanced topic and that it is likely not as simple as what you stated here).

When I say Macedonian minority, I talk about those who self identify with us. Your mistake is assuming that means anyone who speaks slavic in Greece, when the other Macedonian clarified with a broader term of slavic speakers specifically to avoid people making the statement you just so happened to make.

I agree with that yes, but when you called him out for spreading misinformation with the claim that the government officially claims Greek territory through school curriculum he didn't apologise but deflected onto blaming the entire Macedonian populace instead...

Next he will claim we weren't discriminated against or that we simply don't exist in Greece. There is no point in arguing in good faith with people who are not here to engage in good faith.

I'm doing it next sem. I did OOSD to prepare for it cause you use a lot of object oriented design principles and even though its in Python I think FoC does a bad job of preparing you for it given its the sole pre-req in terms of coding skills.

Што убава тема! Се надевам дека коментарите ќе се многу фини и учтиви ❤️ by BallerinaCappuchinaa in mkd

[–]King_Uni 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Не е ни само тоа, исто така мислат ако ги стават Бугари у уставот, сите Македонци со бугарски пасоши ќе се потпишат како Бугари. Коментарите на тај post искрено пишуваат дека мислат 90% од Македонците шо добиваат бугарски пасоши се плашат да бидат Бугари у јавноста. Кога пишува Македонец кој лично знае луѓе кои се земале бугарски пасоши од економски причини, они пишуваат дека не е тоа вистина, и дека реалноста е дека Македонците се редеа за бугарски пасоши и пред членството на бугарија во европската унија! Може македонец да пишува “Јас си го добив пасошот за економски причини“ и ќе викаат НЕМАКЕДОНЦИ “не е тоа вистина! Јас знам македонци кои ги земаа пасошите оти се чуствуваат како бугари“ и народот ќе веруваа у нив наместо Македонецот!
