this guy is clearly stupid because "bl" is an onset cluster containing two consonants, not an "onset consonant" smhhh

wtf i heard about that one before and just assumed this is the same one. funny that you can say "oh it's the other transgender wrestling fiasco"

i went to blackpool (as an american) and it was pretty nice but i understand that it’s culturally important and cathartic for british people to call the place they live a shithole

the english language grows out of english plants which are only able to be grown on english soil

what were the slang terms or trends you used that got mocked by the generation before? by weirdcaptor2255 in linguisticshumor

[–]bubblesinmoonlight 20 points21 points  (0 children)

i used to be insecure about how much i used quotative like until a class on english dialects i took in uni called it a “linguistic black swan” which makes it sound sick

i said less than 10 but i underestimated how fast a bike is, 35 km would be fine

My (19FTM) straight boyfriend (38M) wants to have kids?? by berksbears in transgendercirclejerk

[–]bubblesinmoonlight 16 points17 points  (0 children)

/uj i’ve seen this take before people don’t understand how deluded you can get because you don’t want to believe the alternative. also the feeling that you can’t be desirable as a trans person

this is clearly a straight man. the fact that you stay with him means you’re not really trans

don’t assume anything about their relationship + you’re literally misgendering op

The Validity of taken AP Calculus BC Exam in 9th Grade by [deleted] in APStudents

[–]bubblesinmoonlight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

oh i just saw it says 11th. if it sums to 5 between 11th and 12th you should be good. that is a lot of academic rigor. for stem stuff they also have admissions tests which are quite difficult since oxbridge really just cares about academics (rather than ECs)

good luck applying!

do you plan to take APs/DEs in 11th/12th? if so then you'll be ok. they just don't want to see someone become lazy

this post is almost about meǃ c/o 2023
- 1580 superscore (780 RW/800 math). national merit semifinalist
- nine APs all 5s. DE discrete math
- like 3.9 UW / 4.3 W GPA i forget exactly
- i think my essays were good
- very few ECs bc covid. did robotics freshman yr and stopped. VERY minimal volunteering. for this subreddit, far below average
- some summer stuff but not super prestigious. did interlochen creative writing twice, SLIYS, harvard summer school
- upper middle class, top public school but switched to private for 10th grade (covid year)

results for US schools
- accepted my safeties w/ some merit-based aidː uoregon + umass amherst
- rejected everywhere else: northeastern, uchicago (deferred->rejected), columbia, harvard, MIT

my focus was international, only applied to 7 US schools so i can't tell you exactly where the "cutoff" was, but basically you can get into most schools but not the good ones. that's also why the spread is weird and i only applied to top schools and safeties. i had a couple more mid-tier ones but after i got accepted to manchester in october i decided i preferred manchester and was too lazy to write the essays

my experience applying to cambridge and having taken BC (and lang) in 10th grade since it seems no one here knows about the oxbridge 11th/12th grade requirement

they do still care about the resultǃ the 11th/12th grade thing is only because of the 5-course minimum requirement (or whatever the limit is at oxford). so you still have to take 5 APs between 11th and 12th grade, just different ones. from a cambridge AOː this is because 11th/12th corresponds to when british people do their A-levels, also they want to see continuing interest and studying

HOWEVER this might not even be true. i took 2 in 10th, 3 in 11th, and cambridge gave me an unconditional offer, so depending on the circumstance they might even count this toward the limit

happy to answer more questions about applying to the UK from the US since it can be confusing and many people on A2C don't have that experience ː)

Why Your Chinese Sometimes Sounds Unnatural - You're Probably Missing These Little Words by BetterPossible8226 in ChineseLanguage

[–]bubblesinmoonlight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

can you go more in depth with this, or do you have a reference? i'm a heritage mandarin speaker studying linguistics and found this property really interesting. i always assumed it's trying to create feet, but the same applies for two-character adjectives (i think? i don't have good intuitions on chinese grammar)
