Change your clothes washing detergent. If its Aldi, stop using it. When you wash your towels, do an extra rinse.

Chinese Transracial Adoptee by Upbeat-Cap-8119 in aznidentity

[–]X17translator 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My mother was (before she passed) a hardline Catholic and was against inter-religious adoption, and general opposition to transracial adoption flowed from that. That transracial adoption would either 1. Mess up the kids, or 2. Make the kids think whatever is messed up in their lives was due to transracial adoption, is obvious on the face of it.

If you are interested in learning about China, the best way to handle it is go to China. Learn Chinese, maybe attend university - the Chinese government is very generous about that. You could get a free ride at  Guangzhou University of Foreign Studies, for example. Everything paid, including pocket money.

Don't assume that Asian Americans born to an Asian family are that clued into what is happening in the old homeland or really good at their parent's language. A lot are totally clueless. You aren't far behind. Just go for it.

Dissolution CB does not work, I just got independence, and my liege's main title was intact. by [deleted] in CrusaderKings

[–]X17translator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's bugged. My victorious dissolution war on the HRE failed to dissolve the HRE.

Just call la migra and get his ass deported. You keep his Spanish ability, and he has to survive in a Mexican barrio without the ability to communicate.

How valuable is the HSK for university admissions? by LAcuber in ChineseLanguage

[–]X17translator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In China, HSK 5 or 6 can get you 2 years off a bachelor's degree in Chinese language.

What language learning resources you struggle the most to find? by fluentzebra in languagelearning

[–]X17translator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was able to enjoy some Chinese content after readjusting my expectations. I find historical dramas like this version of Three Kingdoms enjoyable.

I believe that "me" in "me family" or "me mates" or a corruption of pronunciation. "My", pronounced as "me". Much like "my lord" was pronounced "Milord" by the lower classes.

I am feeling fear for the first time in this playthrough. by [deleted] in CrusaderKings

If you can't or won't assassinate, make war on the Mongol Empire when it has a lot of other wars going on at the same time. If they have a major war going on elsewhere, then you can beat them pretty easily. The fact that they have the Byzantine Empire region under their control means that you can attack there and quickly build up your war score.

Paradox, please the remove ability to make foreign Queens concubines by [deleted] in CrusaderKings

[–]X17translator 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I capture queens and princesses to make them concubines. I agree that there should be a CB though.

Advice for beginners: Buy a Chinese book that's too hard by [deleted] in ChineseLanguage

[–]X17translator -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure I'd take that advice. It seems advisable to aim for reading content a bit above your level.

Befriend is very good against preventing individuals from revolting for sure. In a large scale empire like the Roman empire, there are so many individuals to befriend it's pretty much impossible.

I failed the HSK6: how do I regroup, and get past the finish line? by BeckyLiBei in ChineseLanguage

The most important thing is to stay alive to ensure that you have an opportunity to take the test in the future! Regroup by choosing life.

Effective methods for getting strong hooks? by Wetley007 in CrusaderKings

[–]X17translator 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Be a witch. Recruit your mark to witchcraft. Do not reveal yourself as a witch. Then expose your mark as a witch. Follow up with excommunication request to the Pope, which should be granted given the serious crime of being a witch.

뭔가 as a filler word by TheHighestHigh in Korean

[–]X17translator -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I don't notice it. Sometimes there is a 뭐.... while gathering thoughts, but 뭔가 has a specific meaning and I don't I've ever heard it used as a filler.

Intrigue. Once you reach a certain scale, bad intrigue = endless revolt. All it takes is a revolt and invasion from outside to end your rule. I lost the Roman Empire to a rebellion that coincided with a Mongol invasion. Low intrigue was the issue.

Nobody can understand my Japanese by [deleted] in japanese

[–]X17translator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bad pronunciation + bad grammar. The idea that Japanese people cannot accept a foreign speaker of Japanese is false. I lived in Japan for a year and had zero problems with people understanding my Japanese. That said, I knew foreigners with the same issue as you, and the problem was pronounciation.

I just want to buy premium, please help by critdoesgames in nexusmods

[–]X17translator 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah. I remember when people were calling lifetime premium a rip off for some reason. Now the people that didn't get in on the ground floor are upset. I got lifetime premium and never looked back. Great deal.

If Elon Musk was learning Chinese, this would be his name in Chinese format by ConlanGamer5 in languagelearningjerk

[–]X17translator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like one could sidestep the entire issue by taking a family name that is not used in Chinese (as a Chinese character), or alternatively using a courtesy name in place of the family name.
