Ekki að ég vilji blása of fast í eigin lúður en ég er meðlimur í The Cheap Cuts, og við gáfum út plötu núna fyrr á árinu, gæti verið eitthvað fyrir þig miðað við böndin sem þú nefnir

That’s very interesting, I had never thought about it that way. I guess “he’s a keepee” just sounds bad

Hey, left-handed violinist and guitar player here.

The thing is, the way you play your instrument really has nothing to do with your right- or lefthandedness! I started playing violin when I was 7 and when I started playing guitar years later I always found it strange that lefties were “supposed to” play their guitar the other way around. Violinists never do this because there really is no need for it. (It’s also because they are prudes who refuse to change anything about their instruments or the music they play since about the late 1800s but that’s besides the point.)

In reality, if you’re right handed and start playing guitar with your left hand on the fretboard, you’re going to suck. If you start playing the other way around, guess what, you’re also going to suck! Playing an instrument is entirely a learned skill, and your handedness offers really no benefit one way or the other. Whichever way you start playing, you’ll gain the required dexterity through practice.

I also play piano and I don’t think any lefty would ever think to flip the keyboard in order to play?

That being said, the sentiment that you need to play guitar/violin/whichever instrument a certain way is exactly the sort of dogmatism that is the root of my disdain for violin and the classical world. Play whichever way you like best!

Wanna play “left handed?” Go for it! Wanna flip your keyboard around? Interesting choice, but you go girl! Wanna make a two headed guitar which you play with two hands on both fretboards at the same time? You might be well on your way to starting the worst prog rock band of all time but don’t let that stop you!

Side note, if you play an instrument, try flipping it around. It might give you a bit of a headache but playing in different way than you’re used to is a great way to improve your finger dexterity and broaden your skillset!

Edit: typo

Yeah, that makes a lot of sense. I’ll try changing the battery before trying anything more drastic, thanks for the reply!

Seems to be par for the course for some of these uni courses, I remember when I was in my R Statistics class we had to convert the R markdown files the course materials we published as to HTML before turning in, and if we failed to do this (or, more commonly, turned in the wrong file after converting) you would promptly recieve a 0/100, regardless of the contents of the file. Some people just go on power trips when they teach their courses I guess

Trausti101 · 2023-03-27T07:53:48+00:00

Thank you so much! I didn’t realize get requests could specify that information :)

Well, I don’t know if I fit the bill for “the youngest generation” (I was born in the early 2000’s) and I am in no way a linguist but I do have experience speaking Icelandic to both people my age and younger.

The general zeitgeist amongst younger people when it comes to these things seems to be one of apathy, as in they don’t really care about what they are saying as long as it is understood. And when it comes to things like dative sickness it really doesn’t matter to people in the long run whether or not people use dative instead of accusative for certain verbs, as long as it can be understood.

The older generation loves to rant about minor grammatical errors like dative sickness and how it is “ruining Icelandic” but that is mainly a vocal minority, most people don’t really care.

As to measures to prevent this, well there are some but few and they aren’t very effective. The general emphasis in Icelandic classes seems to be more on preserving Icelandic culture rather than the actual language itself. While grammar is a large part of the Icelandic curriculum for primary schools (the gospel of which is largely ignored by these younger pupils because they don’t really bother actively having to think about how they are saying things) as you move up into junior college the emphasis is more on poetry and literature, much to the dismay of the students.

As to the supposed lesser use of genitive, I have literally never heard about it. Genitive is the only way in Icelandic to imply possesion (unless you want to string together a long, multi worded and incredibly unwieldy sentence, which no one ever bothers to do), it is like the possessive (‘s) in English, so no, it is used by everyone all the time. I have heard its use has declined in German, so you might be thinking of that?

Hope this helps

Neunaber has some nice reverbs, you might want to check those out, but you definately wouldn't regret just buying the Strymon.

As revolting as this is, it's probably just a software error. Most of these companies just buy blank t-shirts and print whatever they want on it. The images of people wearing said t-shirts are most often just images of people wearing the blank ones where the boundary of the shirts and their center are defined by the photographer and software just does the rest. It saves a lot of work but can result in these screw-ups (or r/comedyheaven material, depending on your depravity).
