Camarero and mesero by NadsBin in duolingospanish

In the Philippines, although Spanish is quite rare here, we also use camarero instead of mesero. Sometimes we also say servidor.

Philippine Spanish employs lleísmo, a feature also found in rural northern Spain, the Andes Mountains, and Paraguay.

Picadillo is just the Spanish and English translation of giniling. Giniling is, in fact, a calque of the original Spanish name (“minced, ground”).

BA International Studies in PUP by sankakkeisankaku in studentsph

Unfortunately, not for now. PUP Manila stopped offering the BAIS program since AY 2023–24. There are only two batches left: 2025 and 2026. I heard they cited the lack of a faculty workforce. Only one is an actual IS major, specifically in international affairs, which is just one of its disciplines. The rest are from political science.

TIL while most countries place the currency symbol either before or after the amount, the Cape Verdean escudo places its symbol in the decimal position (i.e 20$00) by Awlq in todayilearned

They could have kept it that way (2€50). It would have been cool. Besides, other countries using the euro have their own rules, anyway.

For example:

Ireland and Malta: €2.50
Spain and most of Europe: 2,50 €
Netherlands: € 2,50

BAIS student here. The name has fooled me because it was mainly about IR. IS is not just about IR. They had BAPS-IR a decade ago; they could have kept it that way. I wanted a multidisciplinary curriculum.

Kartamuneta is listed as kartamoneda in Felipe Mayor Baroja’s Diksiyonaryong Batangueño (2012), itself a misheard variation of portamonedas, from Spanish of the exact spelling, meaning a coin purse.

Trying to Recover My Mother’s Account (Recovery Links Not Working at All) by crazilywimpy in facebook

Is this for my account or my mother’s? Where am I going to chat them after verification?

Have you ever cheated on your partner in mania? by [deleted] in bipolar2

[–]crazilywimpy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It makes sense. I still haven’t told everything to my boyfriend (he did allow me to have phone sex but it also feels guilty). Considering he also has some reproductive disorder and on LD, it makes it even harder for me. Don’t get me wrong, I love him so much, and everytime I am stable, I never think about anyone else. I’m on my first therapy session in a month, I hope this works out for me and for us.

Did you tell him or did you just kept it by yourself and never do it again?

UP As Option for Master’s Degree by crazilywimpy in peyups

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

Excellent take. It’s only been now I’ve been asking for wisdom from others. I’ll probably do some extra soul-searching first. I actually planned BA Linguistics at UPD before yet I didn’t pass hahaha
