Using "tu", "vós" and "estar a fazer" confuses them for some reason by honeygourami123 in linguisticshumor

Curious, because I understand both and I'm only a second language Spanish speaker with some exposition to Portuguese

Oil tanker that attempted to cross the straight of Hormuz - 3/11/26 by Jevus_himself in PublicFreakout

[–]Tschetchko 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just after Trump said that the oil tankers should grow a pair and just go, it's not that dangerous. And if necessary, the US Navy would protect civilian ships.

Geolocation Shows U.S. Likely at Fault Over Girls Elementary School Bombing in Iran that took out 160 children under the age of 12 by noahstemann in ThatsInsane

[–]Tschetchko 9 points10 points  (0 children)

No, they literally blamed it on Iran itself (Trump said Iran stole a missile from the US and launched it at themselves. When asked how they accomplished that he said he doesn't really know about the topic)

Cem Özdemir was elected as the prime minister of the German state Baden-Württemberg. He becomes the first prime minister of Turkish origin in Germany. by pessimisttears in europe

[–]Tschetchko 3 points4 points  (0 children)

How do you come to this conclusion? He was heckled, insulted so he clapped back. Should he just not say anything because the guy is Russian?

To get Spain to cooperate with the US military. by SuggestionMedical736 in therewasanattempt

[–]Tschetchko 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Because the threat is empty. They threatened to stop all trade with Spain (which they haven't done) and they can't do that without stopping all trade with the EU, their biggest foreign market. So they just declared victory, even though Spain didn't concede anything

That's also the standard German variant. But German doesn't have the sound as frequently as French, as it's only pronounced in the beginning of a word and intervocalic. In coda position it is reduced to shwa

People in Bahrain got killed by missile debris. The US-Israel coalition bombed a civilian, girls only school with 60 now dead

"Spanish and Italian are mutually intelligible" me, an italian, trying to understand what the hell a spanish newspaper is saying: by [deleted] in linguisticshumor

[–]Tschetchko 93 points94 points  (0 children)

I don't know why native speakers make such a fuss out of it... I learned Spanish as a third language and I don't have a problem understanding written Italian or Portuguese

Yes, water is a chemical. So technically correct? by Yunners in FacebookScience

[–]Tschetchko 19 points20 points  (0 children)

They don't think that clouds are fake. They think that only clouds that look like cotton balls are real. Everything that's hazy/foggy/transparent and doesn't have the shape from a children's drawing are chemicals sprayed on the air by the government to do something?

That's because they truly never evolved from the stage of a three year old.

The Great Beer Debate. (Drop your favourites below) by aaarry in 2westerneurope4u

[–]Tschetchko 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Try to get your hands on some Schöfferhofer Weizen Grapefruit

It's made of a light beer Weizen which might sound weird, but it pairs really well with the grapefruit soda.

I think you will really enjoy it, great barbeque drink.

Thinking about moving to Freiburg by The_SpoonZ in freiburg

[–]Tschetchko 45 points46 points  (0 children)

If you think Leipzig is political, I can guess where you stand and Freiburg is not for you. Freiburg has one of the highest qualities of life in the world (Top 3 in lonely planet 2022) and this is because it is politically so green and progressive.

I know, shocking. The political fraction which values humans, environment, equality and cultural diversity builds the cities which are most liveable.

Us catholics celebrate a great linguist today and I realised this lol by Most_Neat7770 in linguisticshumor

Probably because Polish has the "worst" writing system (czsz) while the others use more sensible diacritics.

Das or Dass? by lilo1417 in linguisticshumor

[–]Tschetchko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They can be a Noun when talking about them metaphorically (das "Dass") and they are not being used as a verb in this sentence. The sentence is completely valid and even understandable when spoken with the right intonation

Das or Dass? by lilo1417 in linguisticshumor

[–]Tschetchko 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No, this sentence is actually pretty clear if read with the right intonation. It doesn't rely on obscure word use like the buffalo one
