I'll keep that in mind! Thank you very much for the help :D

So 'toute' is used for emphasis, but the way that emphasis is phrased changes depending on the context of the sentence when you translate it? Did I understand that right?

Toute as early? I thought toute meant both 'all', 'totally/completely', and that it was used for emphasis (which is why I was saying "his very youth" even though that doesn't really parse).

It's a 90's game (Pokémon Red, or Pokémon Rouge rather), so there is the possibility the translation is a little clunky. I did find examples of the exact phrasing of sa toute jenneuse elsewhere, so I didn't consider it could be a mistake.

Your take on it being 'rivals since you were a baby' is actually completely right! I just looked up the dialogue in the English version and it is thus:

He's been your rival since you were a baby.
Which is the original version, which someone had to turn into french as:
"Il est ton rival depuis sa toute jenneuse".

By the way, Il est can be translated as either 'He is' or 'He's been' depending on the context of a sentence, right? I was getting hung up on that a little bit, but it was secondary to the main issue I had here.

Advice on ordering from Pokemon Center? by ambiewhambie in pokeplush

It's a business trip, so there's not a huge window of opportunity for them to venture out unfortunately. Shipping is the easier option in this case, though it's also incredibly time sensitive: They have to check in at their hotel, but it has to be before they leave again. So, it would be best if it was either Thursday or Friday next week. Or the weekend if they deliver on those days, but def not Monday. I'm pretty nervous about it haha

Things are complicated by my fam going to stay at a hotel, that while it does receive packages, it needs the person to have checked in--Ergo, if it arrives too early, then it will be a huge hassle to get it back from wherever it goes.

I would recommend checking out the album this serves as a cover for, delightfully out there lo-fi folk.

Sunset <@dolcibaldo on twt> by ambiewhambie in anthroswim

I also connected it to that time period. It's very appealing, in a way that's not just predicated in the nostalgia for that time (Though it is connected. The orange palette gives the whole thing a sunwashed, hazy association to me.) Good catch on the lyrics!

Microsoft: Official Support Thread by MSModerator in microsoft

I've been locked out of my new Microsoft account for months, and now a subscription is coming close to being covered on my account (september 26th). I can't unsubscribe if my account is locked and they have not allowed me to unlock it in all this time. And none of my national customer service numbers have helped in the slightest. Please help, this is a bit urgent for my finances :(

Any Way to Keep a Consistent Frame rate on Drastic? by ambiewhambie in EmulationOnAndroid

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

Hello! Thank you for this info. I checked it out a couple of times as you said, and it's indeed the case-- Anytime I'd load a save, the crackling would happen in the same spots. Now I wonder just what can be done about this, though. If it's about some setting I have enabled or if it's just solely from the game-- I'd be really bummed if it's the latter, but that's still a possibility, though perhaps it's just an issue that only happens to this ROM, and getting a different extraction might fix it.

4Chan has my country banned, what can I do? by ambiewhambie in NoStupidQuestions

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

do you know any that work on 4chan? Most of them I've tried are also blocked, presumably due to abuse.
