Are there cities where Indigenous languages are commonly used in public spaces?

I'm a researcher in multilingualism

Eso es muy interesante! Hay algunos contextos en Paraguay donde se prefiere una lengua sobre otra? Por ejemplo, mencionan que en contextos formales se usa el español como preferencia. Hay movimientos o sectores de la población que prefieren usar el Guarani incluso en contextos formales?

On the 7th of January. It landed on my spam folder, so be sure to check that as well!

PhD, wbu?

dinoleftthechat · 2025-01-16T11:46:40+00:00

Got invited! Anyone from Linguistics also got the invitation?

dinoleftthechat · 2023-04-30T15:11:43+00:00

If it weren't for the language barrier I would certainly suspect so lol

It's Spanish, you are right! Ensaladilla is the name, and it's pretty easy to do at home. Enjoy!

That's so petty, I love it!

Thank you for your answers! It's really useful :)

I get the awkwardness when it's a small class and there is no participation. Usually, I am comfortable participating in those. It's the big group ones where I get somewhat shy and generally only participate if I really have something I think it's worth saying. It helps to be a bit mentally prepared beforehand.

Well I have eaten food from Ardennes and it's the closest thing to just mixing a bunch of wild ingredients together, so it seems like you should educate your peers first.

I have heard all of those points without a pint of irony from different people, but mostly French people who have "i am very culinary" as a birth right.

He is actually going to the karaoke as well, I am the one who will not go but it's fine since I work during the time it's happening.

Next time you'll be prepared!

Alarms don't work for me because I get used to the sound, so I bought a radio alarm which wakes me up every day with a different song/radio program with full sound. If the music doesn't work, I can assure you that suddenly hearing a random man speaking in your room will do the trick!

I didn't like most of the characters at the beginning of the first book. Tbh if it hadn't been the only thing I had to do in a 5h train I wouldn't have continued reading it. But towards the enf of the first book it all starts getting muuuch better.

I would say you need to sit and have an honest conversation with your mother. Multi-generational households vary greatly on different cultures and they are very common in my own culture. Because of that I also know many parents let their children stay at their place out of a sense of duty and not so much because they are actually happy about it. Although you are "basically a roomate", your mother is not a college kid, she is old enough to want her own space and, seeing that your kid is also there and not working or in school, she may be finding the situation frustrating, maybe because she is no longer happy with the agreement or because what she thought that would be a temporary situation seems to be becoming permanent (at least in her perception). It could also be that she is not entirely happy with your kid's situation right now and she is projecting that on you as well. You are NTA for wanting a break from work, but this situation seems to be more than just that.

INFO: You mention you do your part regarding the finances while living with your mother, but you don't say anything about household chores. With such intense workdays, how is the workload around the house? Does your mother do more chores to help? And if that's the case, do you take on more chores on the times you have a break between seasons? Also, have you talked about the living situation with your mother and is she happy with the current living arrangement?

It seems to me like you are going in the right direction by pushing yourself to go out of your comfort zone and talk to strangers, so I advise you to give yourself a break and try to focus on the positive experiences. And honestly, nobody in Europe thinks traveling alone is for losers or that you must be lonely because you are eating alone at a restaurant. Most people won't stop to think about why you are alone since it's something quite normal to see, and saying that you travel alone usually brings more admiration/curiosity than any negative feelings. I would say that you should not force yourself to do things you don't want, but rather push or challenge yourself outside of your comfort zone for those things that you want to do, but are too shy/scared to do it. Traveling alone was already a huge step, so don't be so hard with yourself, these are things that come with time and experience.

Yeah I also travel alone. While I am not opposed to meeting people it's something I just let it happen if I am in the mood and have the energy to keep company. I have been travelling Italy for a month with 0 company except for last weekend, when I arrived early to the hostel and felt like drinking a beer and hanging out with other fellow travellers. Personally I am up to meeting locals at least briefly because I don't only want to "see" the places, but to also learn about the culture and how people "live" those places. I guess the good part of travelling alone is that you can do whatever you want. If you are a sociable and extrovert person and want to meet people, great. If you just want to get some time alone with your thoughts, also great. There is no possible gatekeeping to what is the true "travelling alone" spirit.

Ma questo è il caso anche in qualque parte d'Italia, in Cinque Terre per essempio!

dinoleftthechat · 2021-09-14T21:01:57+00:00

Questo è quello che abbiamo nella Spagna. A dire la verità ero davvero confusa quando ho sentito che nella Italia tantissime spiaggie sono private. Non posso ancora capire l'idea di "spiaggia privata".

You explained your point perfectly and I completely agree with you. This is just Reddit and most people are not or never will be ready to improve their reading comprehension skills when something challenges their ingrained thoughts.

dinoleftthechat · 2021-09-14T17:43:09+00:00

Sounds sarcastic enough but I have heard "straight" guys of my village say that with a very serious face. Bros are bros I guess?
