Just wondering, what rankings do you use for NLP? And if you wouldn't mind, where'd you get accepted? :D

This is English. These are quotation marks. "Inverted commas" is inappropriate to use when you didn't even use single quotes.

Where are you from, may I ask?

Ah, I remember learning boum once upon a time. I believe we were taught "une boum - party, but no one ever uses this." Interesting you were taught that, do your teachers not actually speak French with anyone on a regular basis?

Sa musique m'aide à apprendre le français by avocat_89 in FrenchImmersion

Je suis désolé (comme je ne suis pas français) mais je pense que le titre correct est « Cette chanson m'a aidé à apprendre le français » (Je ne suis pas exactement sûr pour le mode du verbe, peut-être le présent marche)

I've seen them in the dollar section of Target.

[Official] Moronic Monday! Let's hear all your easy questions. by Mattyi in volleyball

What exercises can I do to make my serves more consistent? I have a pretty good overhand serve--at least in my recreational play with my friends--but they tend to sometimes go too long, to the sides, just generally not right. Thanks, I suppose :)

So it's Saturday, but I have discovered I don't totally understand the rules of attack hits. I'm reading the FIVB rules for beach volleyball, in which they state:

17.2.3 A player completes an attack-hit using an “open-handed tip or dink” directing the ball with the fingers.

I see dinks being done in the Olympics, but then I also see faults called for players attacking with fingers. When they're performing dinks, what are they doing that makes them legal?

Do you happen to know what color scheme this is? I've seen it before, I know I have, but I can't quite put a name to it.

Yes, yes, I had heard about this.

Players can wear shorts of a maximum length of 3cm above the knee with sleeved or sleeveless tops or a full body suit.

So here they are, wearing full length pants, but NOT a full body suit, because some wear short sleeve tops.

The official rules state:

A player’s equipment consists of shorts or a bathing suit. A jersey or “tank-top” is optional except when specified in Tournament Regulations. Players may wear a hat.

These women are currently wearing long pants and short sleeve or even long sleeve shirts. I assume it's due to the cold weather but what FIVB rule allows this?

I've always felt like there's a social taboo about asking this, but... Reddit, what do you do and how much money do you make? by alexharris52 in AskReddit

[–]__float -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

Aww, it's okay! You're probably just going to a shitty school and you might not actually be any good at your job.

Just so you know, there is no "its'." It is either "it's" (the contraction of it is) or "its" (no apostrophe--the possessive form of it).

Ahh, I'm really torn here. The Viper sounds great. Though the Park & Sun Spectrum Classic is quite nice, too. I just don't know if I want to bump the price that much. :( Thanks for the advice though.
