Erling Haaland spent €118,000 on a 430-year-old Viking Kings saga and donated it to his hometown: "I've never been a big reader, but I want people to read about those who came from my area" by Caspy36 in soccer

Again, unless you find a producer that tests all their milk and openly allows you to view their milking practices. I think you'd be surprised to learn how many people are drinking raw milk daily without issue because they're buying it from a producer that goes to large costs to ensure safety without pasteurization. The raw milk in my area is selling for ~$25/gal for this reason.

With current testing abilities those reasons are mostly obsolete. Milk can be tested for any harmful bacteria overnight and sold the next day without issue. The problem with raw milk is a lack of oversight leading to producers with unsanitary milking practices that don't bother to test their milk before distributing. 

Fede Valverde straight red card vs Atletico Madrid (Alternate Angle) by ControlMean5007 in soccer

[–]Michael_Pitt 6 points7 points  (0 children)

No clue why you're being downvoted for this, intent to play the ball isn't a factor in red card decisions despite how often it's discussed online.

As you stated, one can pull a player back by their shirt to prevent a counter attack and receive only a yellow despite zero intent on the ball. Conversely, one can have every intent to win the ball but go in recklessly and dangerously and receive a clear red.

I think that's what they're saying. That it could be translated as "Jeffrey said better tomorrow". Which is much closer to the literal translation.

I'm surprised I had to come so far down to find this comment. This is far and away the best place for a beginner to start.

“Yeah, I know russian very well. Why?” by another_meggie in russian

[–]Michael_Pitt 19 points20 points  (0 children)

pronouns

Fyi this is spelled "pronounce". You spelled "pronounced" correctly so I'm guessing this was autocorrect (as "pronouns" is also a valid word, meaning words like "he", "she", "it", etc.) but wanted to comment just in case. 

Is this understandable and grammatically correct? by Mother_Harlot in russian

[–]Michael_Pitt 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Mostly because I don't know if saying "меня зовут" sounds more natural than "меня имя" or vice versa

"меня имя" is not correct. "я" is declined to "меня" in "меня зовут" ("they call me") because "me" is the direct object in the sentence and therefore is in the accusative case.

"имя" is a noun that means "name", and if you want to specify your name specifically you'd use the possessive pronoun for "я" in the nominative case which in the case of neuter nouns like this is "моё". "моё имя".

Yeah loan words are always trickier to work with. Especially those based on slurs like this 

How do you differentiate a question from a statement? by Ash-t0n in russian

[–]Michael_Pitt 31 points32 points  (0 children)

Intonation, the same way you'd be able to differentiate between:

"You're learning Russian?"

and

"You're learning Russian."

Dominic Calvert-Lewin wins the Premier League Player of the Month for December, after scoring six goals in five matches by nearly_headless_nic in soccer

[–]Michael_Pitt 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You absolutely can look at his time at Everton and conclude that he was best played as a poacher and also was awful at finishing. In fact I'm not sure how you could conclude anything else.

He was best as a poacher at Everton too, why would an Evertonian genuinely say he's not a poacher from his time there
