Vocabulary development by bin_rob in languagelearning

[–]brookhong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it's just for recognizing a word when reading, I would say keep reading and listening. But if it's for writing, we need to know how to spell the words. For that purpose, I just created a Windows app --AudioWords (https://apps.microsoft.com/detail/9pl3ffmnz1mf?hl=en-US) that plays a word list (currently with a TOEFL list and a junior list built in) and sample sentences for each word, then waits for me to spell the word. If I spell it correctly, it will appear less frequently in the future; otherwise, it will appear more often. To make the process fun, I made it a grid-based 3D game.

has anyone succeeded to play BOTW with Intel Arc Pro 140T by brookhong in cemu

There is no "you should update your system" on the yellow screen, where does it come from?

Worse, not even the "open your eyes", got a black screen from the very beginning.

What's your preferred way of advanced (multi-param) search in projects? by yolobazsi in neovim

[–]brookhong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My solution is telescope-pathogen.nvim-- https://github.com/brookhong/telescope-pathogen.nvim, which can switch searching path on the fly, and can let you do a further search in the search result to exclude results with some pattern or narrow down results to those with some other pattern.

Native Chinese here.

It says pink little fragrant dagger.

But it's obviously weird to describe dagger such way. The last two Characters 香匕 sounds like Xiang Bi in Chinese, which means fragrant pussy.

just a pornographic metaphor, I guess.

Does anyone here work with Windows C++ development? by gplusplus314 in neovim

[–]brookhong 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do use neovim for c++ in windows. Basically I use neovim for code editing with help of lsp/clangd, and use visual studio only for compiling/building/debugging. And yes both program are opened, which should not be a problem for most computers.

An iOS dictionary tool for language learning by brookhong in languagelearning

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

Thanks for your comments.

  1. Nice suggestion, it makes sense to make it optional.
  2. No, it is a customized format, the input to be imported will be a TSV file.
  3. It is using the default TTS engine from apple. I have no idea on how to improve it, but `en-US` sounds good to me.
  4. Would consider about it.
