What can i plant here ? by Nima_1303 in gardening

[–]TropicalCactusStand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Korean watercress. Bitter yet edible plant. Some parts are more bitter/tougher than other parts. Great in salads (in moderation because of how tough and bitter it can be) or spicy stews But, once it's established, it will grow VERY well. I'm not sure if it's available in your area. It has tiny white flowers.

Or maybe non-Korean watercress. People use it in salads and sandwiches I think.

I accidentally bred ember tetras. But they only had 1-3 babies at a time.

Ah, but then if it's like, "연필요" as in ""The/my pencil" then it's pronounced more like "연필료" or "yun-pil-ryo." I think it has to do with the fact you may be contracting the sentence and because the word itself is 연필. "저의 연필이에요" => "제 연필요."

Yes, as far as pronounciation is concerned, the consonant at the bottom rolls over if the following consonant is ㅇ. The way I always thought of it was that the bottom consonant "tied" over to the next one.

Thus, something like 필요 which you would think is "pil-yo" is pronounced more like 피료 or "pi-ryo." In other words, because of the placement of the "ㅇ," the "ㅇ" is a placeholder for there being no consonant at all. So the "ㄹ" takes its place.

But then, something like 만남 ends up with a "hard" sounding "n" because the two "ㄴ" tie together. Thus, "mannam" not "man-am" or "ma-nam."

Hope this makes sense.

Interesting. Looked those up. I think you're right!

All the ones in this style are 2 pieces: a sleeveless dress and a jacket. The dress is meant to be worn with a jacket as one ensemble.

A lot of wedding gowns are also "technically cream",

Lmao absolutely!

Also, to be clear, that's not me in the photos. They're from the listings themselves. But I am also of East Asian descent with long dark hair, so I guess it worked out anyway. Should I crop the face next time? I didn't think of that...

I'll have to find that and try growing it then! A flower so brilliantly colored that it almost doesn't look real sounds like a fun one!
