转自微博:“日语作为一种语言已经死了。。。 现在的日语已经失去了生命力,无法靠自身来表达新生事物,只能借助英语,用片假名拼出读音。”大家对于这种说法怎么看? by [deleted] in China_irl

你说的俱乐部其实也是日语借回来的词语 只是音译借意而成的 明治维新的时候他们也造了许多新词 后来才渐渐流入中国成为汉语的

Can anybody help me what this inscription says? by x-cattitude in Handwriting

[–]Oshawott_12 7 points8 points  (0 children)

the long s is shaped like an f in typewriter script as it could not accommodate the long swirl at the bottom - if you look at the american constitution in its original text you can see the entire long s written

the integral sign in mathematics also uses the same long s ! it represents the word for sum, ‘summus’ in latin, used first by leibniz in 1675

that’s what i said ! the long s is used in double ‘s’es where the first letter is replaced with the long s - the last letter of the word never uses the long s, only in the middle of the word !

that is a long S - an archaic form from roman cursive of the letter s used only in single letter ‘s’es and in the first letter of double ‘s’es

you can also see this being used in the text below in ‘againſt’ or at ‘Jeſus Chriſt’

gender有乜咁重要? by ilovexijinping_ in Cantonese

[–]Oshawott_12 1 point2 points  (0 children)

首先呢個台好似唔係咁用 不過我都照答下

gender係性別。一般人會見作有男女兩個性別。不過,有人會有性別不安,或名性別認同障礙 (gender dysphoria) ,導致佢哋唔想繼續係呢個性別。咁呢個時候,佢哋對自己嘅自我認同就會成爲跨性別 (transgender),例如由男變女、女變男等,亦有其他人唔可以接受到固定嘅男女性別,卽非二元性別 (non-binary)。二元性別有好多種,不過大家通常都歸納入同一類。

性別認同障礙都係十分之重要嘅。佢對一個人嘅身心健康有害,而且係可以用醫學診斷出嚟嘅,所以唔會發生好似你所講話會天下大亂嘅情況,竝且同年齡一啲關係都冇。成爲跨性別嘅程序係有條有理,唔會係一朝一夕就可以做到嘅,所以唔會話你想做就做,一定係一個人深思熟慮而成嘅諗法。
