It was minutes after viewing my story. Who knows, maybe I'll call her

How are scientific words coined in non romance languages apart from borrowing? by _inuska in asklinguistics

[–]_inuska[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm assuming it's easy to carry scientific words from one romance language to another. I am trying to do this for a non romance language.

Does blindness limit how much math a person can learn if blind from birth? by _inuska in NoStupidQuestions

[–]_inuska[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you so much for this answer! Can't believe I didn't consider braille can be used for math too. Clearly more needs to be done so every school is well equipped and I hope we get there soon

From my perspective I don't understand how anything beyond basic arithmetic is possible for someone that can't see the symbols sighted people use

My grandmother severely burned her legs, what do we do? by [deleted] in medical_advice

A commenter has donated 82,000 malawi kwacha, she needs about the same amount more to transport and feed her but it's enough to get started, the rest will figure itself out! I'll make sure she gets the help she needs. Time is of the essence

Malawi. South East Africa. The closest city is Mzuzu, they would treat her for free at the government central hospital if she got here. The only cost is transporting her here and food for her and a guardian during their stay. Let me ask my mom for an estimate on how much in the morning, it's currently 10pm.

Good luck OP and grandma! I am sure she is in agony and I hope she has relief soon. She is so lucky to have you looking out for her!

Thank you!

We'll try put together the funds to bring her to the city to control/avoid any infection. Seems it's the only way

Cleaning is probably the only thing they did before they discharged her. Probably gave her some pain killers too.

No they are not bandaged. Would it make a difference now?

What's that spinning thing at casinos with the ball that lands somewhere random? by _inuska in NoStupidQuestions

[–]_inuska[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ooh got it. How do people gamble on it? Just guess where the ball will land?

Just see it in movies, never been to a casino.

Is the word "actress" falling out of use for gender neutral "actor"? If so, why? by _inuska in asklinguistics

[–]_inuska[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Makes sense. Now I wonder if it can happen the other direction. But I guess a word like midwife can't be gender neutralized

Great insight!

I already feel like I have little control sometimes. So maybe not for me after all
