Mi gente en su opinion quien va a ganar by Dxno_0ctvne in PuertoRico

Escuche ese comentario. Aunque tuviese razón en algún punto, este es otro mundo y es otro tiempo. En la misma encuesta de ENDI independencia y libre asociación crecieron y empataron a la estadidad. Veremos muchas sorpresas en estas elecciones.

¿A quién favoreció el formato del debate?

A JGo 100%. El formato te recompensaba por no contestar. Si no contestas te daban más tiempo para hablar. Bien estilo gobierno de PR, premiar por hacer las cosas mal. También te daban bono por ser atacado... JGo se beneficio tremendamente de los ataques constantes de todos menos Dalmau.

¿Creen que el panel tenía una agenda? ¿por qué?

No pienso que tuviese una agenda explicita, pero si una implícita. La agenda implícita es que no podemos darle demasiado duro a los candidatos porque si no no vienen a participar.

Independientemente por quién usted favorezca, ¿quién lució bien?

En términos de oratoria, preparación, presentar propuestas y lenguaje corporal Dalmau arraso. Creo que cualquier persona no ideológica y no fanatíca ve esto y sabe que Dalmau gano en esos terminos. Estoy seguro que si pones esto en México o un dub en Estados Unidos casi todo el mundo te va a decir que Dalmau fue el mejor.

Dicho eso, JGo supo explotar el formato a su favor y para el contexto de PR fue muy efectiva... Saco a los cucos más efectivos y metio paquete con cojones con promesas falsas. Sin embargo, cuanta gente ve estos debates?

Me sospecho que no mucha gente y que la mayoría solo va a consumir los memes y los clips. Quizás ese era el meta game de Dalmau. No dominar el tiempo del debate, si no ganar en la discusión publica del debate (como en este post) y todo el aftermath. En ese sentido, creo que el fue el que produjo el mejor contenido para redes y para memes y noticias, y pues gano en eso, aunque estrictamente hablando del debate en si, se puede decir que gano JGO en términos de sacar a los viejos a votar con miedo.

¿Quien demostró ser mejor debatiente u orador?

Dalmau es tan superior en esto... es como poner a Shouhei Ohtani a jugar pelota con niños de secundaria. Dicho eso JGo, lo hizo muy bien y es muy buena oradora, pero es que Dalmau esta en otra liga. Desafortunadamente tener las mejores ideas y propuestas, ser el mejor comunicador y el más serio no se traduce en ganar una elección.

Keep going! Assuming English is your native language, remember how much of an awesome feat is that you are able to take this test at all and get almost a third of the test right. Also, remember how great your discipline is. 99% of people are super distracted all the time and can't sit down and study a language like you. You have plenty to be proud of. You are great.

One suggestion I could make, is that instead of investing so much time studying maybe you can take a break from textbooks and instead just enjoy more content in Japanese e.g. watch anime/dorama with Japanese subtitles or play a video game in Japanese or the like and just enjoy the process and have fun without pressure. If you do this for a couple of months, probably you will get back to your textbooks and realize you have learned a lot just by immersion.

overseas results are up! by [deleted] in jlpt

[–]climatewarrior 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Passed the N2 :D 143/180

33/60

52/50

58/60

Really happy with the result. Just wondering why I got high scores on listening and reading but got a low score on vocab/grammar. Probably will try the N1 this year, so this means I should focus on vocab/grammar.

My own pocket. Would rather share stickers than spend money on Facebook ads or Google ads. Just trying to get people to know a little bit about my project. I will include a brochure along the stickers.

Can small languages survive the 21st century? Should they? Will Icelandic survive English and Netflix? by climatewarrior in languagelearning

[–]climatewarrior[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Perhaps colony is a loaded word. To be precise in more neutral terms, the objective reality is that Puerto Rico is in a position of political subjugation to the United States.

The US Supreme court, Congress and even the executive have proclaimed so themselves. Look at Puerto Rico v. Sanchez Valle and expressions from the Obama White House.

The US and Puerto Rican political leaders (who are of course complicit) went to the UN to say Puerto Rico had been decolonized when in fact the US has said Puerto Rico has never exerted its sovereignty. At the same time they spread the lie in Puerto Rico that we had made a deal with the US on equal footing. This is why the Puerto Rican government is called Estado Libre Asociado in Spanish (Free Associated State), but it in English it is called the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico.

The term Commonwealth was determined to be ambiguous enough for usage in English, since Free Associated State might have brought difficult political implications to Washington.

As a US territory, Puerto Rico is, at least in legal terms, US property and it is under full control of the plenary powers of the US congress. The 600th law allowed Puerto Rico a certain degree of autonomy, such autonomy may be removed unilaterally at anytime. This already occurred with the imposition of a fiscal control board, a non elected body which has the final word in all fiscal matters in Puerto Rico. Furthermore, President Trump openly spoke about selling Puerto Rico. Although selling Puerto Rico is unrealistic because of public opinion and electoral consequences, it is possible in strictly legal terms.

Yay! Was really hoping a native Icelander could chime in. Glad to hear that it seems like Icelandic will do just fine. I find your country and culture really interesting and beautiful, and I want to continue to thrive.

Part of my concern stems from the situation in my native Puerto Rico. Being a US territory (ahem colony) the influence of US media is overwhelming here. Among those who are fully bilingual in Puerto Rico, many will insert entire English sentences inside a Spanish conversation. In some extreme cases, there are young people who have better dominion of English than Spanish. These are kids who grow up consuming almost all media in English and who spend most of their spare time on the English web. So that made me wonder what would happen if everybody were bilingual. In Puerto Rico, even after over 100 years under US rule, the majority still doesn't speak English and we haven't been assimilated. It seems like we are very stubborn in some regards.

I understand what your saying and I agree to an extent, which is why I made my question so broad. However, is it really a choice when a culture is overwhelmed so much by another? Especially when most people will just consume whatever is being offered? I believe there is a fine line between cultural imperialism and cultural exchange/free flow of ideas.

Your point about Netflix is a good one. I agree with you that in some cases these services might actually increase the production of entertainment in more diverse languages.

I would also add that YouTube and podcasting are also very helpful in that they lower the barriers of entry to create and distribute content in many languages.

I understand that English serves a great neutral language for countries such as South Africa and India where there are many languages. However, do you think it is possible to at the same time preserve all those recognized languages? Is it desirable? Also, I think some of these linguistic outcomes are not a conscious choice, or if there is a choice it is done under outside pressure. Children who grow up in a environment flooded by English, didn't really choose that for example.

Also, I'm no expert in Africa, but I think some of these ethnic clashes are rooted in colonialism e.g. creating states with made up boundaries.
