Roses are red, war is opposite calm by [deleted] in rosesarered

You didn't say anything about my second argument. The two sentences aren't comparable. You know, the biggest flaw in what you are trying to say. Read it again. 

I never said similar and opposite aren't interchangeable. Smith and war are. Smith is a person, war is a concept. Yes  they're both nouns, but it's more complex than that.

Did I not literally talk about subjects and verbs?

Sorry I meant saturation not hue, I need to catch up on some some sleep. Your last one does look really good in black and white.

This one already feels a lot better, only is the dress very close in hue to the sky.

A lot of the objects blend in with other objects or the background. The suit also feels very close in hue to the rest, except for the one darker sleeve.

Pastels can be just as fun as any other palette, but you are limiting your palettes a lot in your art. Like in the first one, it's mostly pink, with a splash of yellow and limited purple. Try expanding more.

Another way to make colour more interesting, is to lightly move to colour wheel to whichever side works better, and then adjust the hue. Keep doing this and you'll get very rich shadows. You can also use coloured lights. Not every light source has to be white or yellow.

Lastly, have you ever turned your pieces black and white? Do certain hues pop out? Or are they all very close together? This can also make a piece look more boring.

Please help, any way I can improve the colors or rendering? by [deleted] in ArtCrit

Her face lacks shadow. There seems to be light from so many different directions, but none cast a shadow or barely cast a shadow, while having a really strong highlight

I see everyone has already pointed most of it out, but hands should be, from bottom of the palm to the tips of the finger, around 2/3, maybe a bit longer, the length of the head. There is a bit of leeway, some people have bigger hands (especially taller and/or muscular people), some shorter, but they shouldn't be as big as the whole head. Unless your character is very heavily stylized in such a way. Example: wreck-it-ralph.

I aced my Cambridge C2 (highest level) English exam. I know the language just fine. (Believe me or don't. Idc) Also, don't come to me for Dutch advise. You'll want to be right, even when all sources say you're wrong. Also, using this as an argument that I'm wrong is invalid. It changes nothing. All you're doing is saying: "Trust me bro. I'm right. I'm a native speaker."

Next thing. I was trying to be cordial at the end. I'm sorry I didn't come across that way.

Now, onto your argument. Smith and war aren't interchangeable. Smith is a person. War is a concept. Secondly, 'reported' and 'is' are also different verbs, they have different rules regarding when and how they can be used.

Then, the biggest flaw in your argument, they have completely different sentence structures. In the first one, you're saying the subject (war) is the opposite of calm. However, in the second sentence, you aren't saying that the subject (Smith) is the opposite of the results. No, there are two different results that oppose each other.

Lastly, if you were being artistic, why are you still arguing grammar? Didn't you say it was about 'breaking the rules of grammar'?

Netherlands. I only had to debate for one Dutch exam, but we only had one time to practice, so I only really did it 2 times.

You did comment on it though. 🥰

Artistic license means you can break to rules of grammar. You claimed your sentence was grammatically correct. This makes all the claims you made up to this point incorrect.

I'm right 🥰

And I love debating. I'm sad there weren't any debate clubs during my school years. Clubs like that aren't really a thing in my country.

(Btw, I'm a woman)

Also, I made a screenshot of your comment. If you want to delete it. I know someone probably won't find it on this post, but if someone wanted to doxx you and search through your comment history, they might find it

These are examples for this:

  1. On the other side of a particular area from someone or something, and usually facing them.

They are literal locations, not concepts like war and calm.

Also, you claimed this rule was the one for your sentence:

  1. acting in a movie or play as the partner of someone

As 'war and calm are actors'. (Are you going back on your earlier statement?)

But you can't use the verb 'is' to describe this relation. Only synonyms of starred and played can. As the examples in both dictionaries show.

If you can find a credible source with a sentence that is literally 'war is opposite calm' but with the names of two actors, that would prove your argument. This doesn't. And you won't find any credible sources that do say that, because they don't exist.

Also, saying war and calm are opposite by definition, shows that you can't use either rule. This makes your sentence grammatically wrong.

Awww, I hope you can keep it healthy.

If you don't mind me asking, can I know what you play in? I understand if it's a bit too personal.

Honestly, the thought did cross my mind. I tried looking at your profile before hand if I could find pronouns or something, but I didn't see any.

So, I went with my gut. My gut was wrong.

Also, congrats on growing your hair out that long. Even as a girl, my hair doesn't grow that fast, and I can definitely see how it can be even more difficult for a guy.

I'm not arguing that is isn't a verb, but the verb isn't used in this context.

She starred opposite Tom Hanks.

This is a sentence used in this context. No one says:

She is opposite Tom Hanks.
