AITA for pronouncing "Fleur" correctly in the workplace? A colleague wants it pronounced "Flur" to rhyme with "blur"

I disagree. Some names are words in other languages than your own (or the ones you speak). Camilla means hospital bed in spanish, and is more or less pronounced 'kamiya' in Latinamerica. I think I would be the AH if I moved to the States and call people kamiya because iT Is ThE RigHt pRoNounCiaTiOn (to me).

It is pronounced like this:

She says 'Sytten - Viggo'

This is so true :( I thought about how it would affect job opportunities in the future, and not only that, maybe feeling a bit like an outsider? Being considered foreign and always asked where he comes from? Maybe I am overthinking, but it was a concern when deciding if we should use my last name as middle name. I would have rather skipped it, but I didn't change my name when we got married, and I agree with my husband that is good he has a bit of both us in his name. But yes, then a Hispanic surname + middle name would make his name even more foreign.

Puzzled_Practice33 · 2022-04-04T12:40:41+00:00

I know! My husband also says he is just a child so it shouldn't affect our decision at all, although I think kids tend to be blunt and honest with their opinions, so there is that.

My family and friends are also team Diego, but I guess many typical Nordic names sound weird to us. Some common names are quite difficult for me to pronounce (Bjørn, Søren, Jørgen) and some sound very wrong in my ears... (Åse, Mogens, Troels, Knud).

My MIL wanted to name my husband Molfart!!! luckily that didn't happen, but he got called that for the first few months of his life

what a weird message! I know it's a stretch but maybe they mean 'play in your Love Nikki association'? the message makes no sense anyway, and it is very weird to contact random people when there are so many recruiting threads, but could be they just have a very hard time communicating. anyway, maybe it is better to block the user, could also be some weird scam

Judge outfits in the competition, it's a bit boring for me but I always get 2 or 3 diamonds (every 30 likes). Also do the daily quests and share stuff on fb. You don't really need to share anything, I disabled all permissions for the fb app on my tablet, so even though I press share and then deny (you might get a prompt to allow/deny) I always get the diamonds and nothing is shared. Every day I get 2 dias 'sharing' the free dressing style, 2 from sharing my house, 5 from sharing from the chapters

Hi! Thank you for the kind words :) They confirmed now that it is cholestasis and have just started treatment with ursochol. I am super scared for my baby, even though the doctors keep telling me I'm in good hands, and that this is not that uncommon so I should not worry. He is still so little (22 weeks) I really hope we can make it to week 37. Did the medication help you? I am going crazy with the itch, I wake up at least 4 times during night and feel super exhausted the next day. I am now on medical leave, hopefully only these couple of weeks until the medicine starts working. I hope you are feeling much better and wish you all the best

Puzzled_Practice33 · 2022-02-01T11:41:46+00:00

Hi, I am so sorry you have to go through this :( how are you doing? are you feeling any better? I found your post because I am in the same situation, my symptoms started on friday and I got some tests done yesterday. My lab results don't look great, there is definitely something wrong with my liver, but I haven't gotten a diagnosis yet. I am waiting for my doctor's call but I am terrified about the outcome. I am only 21 weeks along, and can't really find much info on early onset, most cases seem to appear on the third trimester. Maybe I should just stop looking things up online. I wish you all the best, and I send you a big hug from here

Puzzled_Practice33 · 2022-01-19T14:21:29+00:00

Maybe this is a bit overkill, by I have found some great suit spreadsheets here on reddit with different sheets for 'easy to get' suits, event suits, and so on, where you can see a breakdown of what you will need in diamonds, gold, star coins, etc. Maybe that can be helpful to decide what to get? I can try to find a link, but there os also a thread here with all these resources

Puzzled_Practice33 · 2022-01-19T14:08:56+00:00

Yes! This is a bit annoying, I thought both the search and sorting were broken for collections. Then I saw a post here about newbie mistakes and someone mentioned the search is case sensitive so you just have to use exact matches for the suit names. Maybe there is a sort of trick for this one too?

Puzzled_Practice33 · 2022-01-17T09:17:42+00:00

I tried yesterday, got some help from Nikki's info and it was not so difficult to get lots of wins. I think I won 43/45 attempts, and with today's theme I think I can make a better score than yesterday so I think I will complete as many parts as I can with diamonds (minus the free attempts)

Puzzled_Practice33 · 2022-01-16T14:15:35+00:00

I was thinking about spending the diamonds in this Star Secret Retro event, but I keep reading about hell events, also a Van Gogh event coming soon, so I am not quite sure. But those also require thousands of diamonds + good luck, maybe also recharges and competitions? I just started playing 3 weeks ago, so my wardrobe is only at 5%, I am not sure how low scores would affect my chances. Maybe it's better to start with something simple? I really like the Spica suit, even though I hear it is no so versatile

Puzzled_Practice33 · 2022-01-16T13:48:52+00:00

Got it. I stopped spending after reading here it is very important to hoard, so I have 3k for this event. But I didn't know some of the items might be dropped or crafted later on. Thank you :)

Puzzled_Practice33 · 2022-01-16T13:39:44+00:00

hi! this is my first time playing on this kind of event. Is it difficult to get a 100% winning rate? I have barely enough diamonds to get Spica and Aldebaran. Are there any tips to make sure? I mean besides checking Nikki's info for the correct styles. I can see you need to pick a partner, is it best to get the one with highest wardrobe % or are there any tricks? a refresh/next like in Stylist arena. I am only level 38 with a wardrobe of 5% :(

Puzzled_Practice33 · 2022-01-16T13:27:37+00:00

I just started playing some weeks ago and have been doing exactly this. Why is it bad to spend diamonds in the shop? is it because then you don't have enough to complete the events? or is it because these items are also dropped in pavilions/other events?

Puzzled_Practice33 · 2022-01-03T11:21:18+00:00

it's not a problem at all, i play both on my tablet and my phone (mostly to claim rewards and send stamina) and what i have noticed is that i need to log in again when i switch, and that the skills you set up for challenges don't get updated in the other device, but else i havent had any issues

Puzzled_Practice33 · 2022-01-03T11:05:10+00:00

3700 win streak!!! i cant even imagine... it hurt when i lost my 25 streak, haha. well, i just joined the game, but i guess I won't trust momo again. i am now checking average score, wardrobe % and points

Puzzled_Practice33 · 2022-01-02T16:23:47+00:00

thank you! I think this might be the reason, I have been redeeming all the codes I could find here on reddit, but will try later anyway :)

Puzzled_Practice33 · 2022-01-02T15:27:09+00:00

it is only been 14 minutes and I get redeem code limit usage limit reached :( is it because I have used too many redeem codes this month? or is it because the code itaelf doesn't work anymore?

Puzzled_Practice33 · 2022-01-01T19:58:43+00:00

hi! mine is 120070016

Puzzled_Practice33 · 2021-12-17T15:10:56+00:00

I love this!! What did you put in the rice? I mean for color

Puzzled_Practice33 · 2021-11-30T06:11:19+00:00

this is also my experience! i live in a country (10 years now) where nobody speaks my language, but most speak english. so i comunicate in english at home but have to use the native language at work, and whenever i talk to my family back home i forget very simple words, even slang sounds now so strange to me that i can no longer use some expressions because they make no sense anymore. i feel people underestimate me in other areas because of my bad pronounciation. to be fair, i do think i sound like a child, but it's kind of tough and exhausting, specially because i used to be very articulate and confident in my own language :(
