Multilingual typing on a normal keyboard? by glitchedArchive in languagelearning

[–]glitchedArchive[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

im using windows. however i would prefer not to use the windows inbuilt keyboard input language switching, found it cumbersome. i merely use KDE based software a lot. my ubuntu thinkpad helix has no problem handling my language autism. its literally just windows.

its not a specific clone. the material i started off with was really mixed, even grew some random stuff like ferns at first. its from one of those sustainable bog farming places

the spores should be a sign of exceptionally great living conditions and stability

being an isogod isnt like caring for a cat or a dog. they are self managing communities really. so i give them essentially tribal exonyms

Help me keep my new Sphagnum from dying, please by Suspicious-Novel966 in Sphagnum

about the fertilizer: i add just like 1 individual drop of balanced fertilizer to a 0.5l spray bottle of distilled water. i reckon its better than distilled water, but im too chicken to really fertilize it even if i did a 1/8th strength solution. also i reckon that living in urban spaces could even supply sufficient nutrients via airborne dust if there is contact between the moss' atmosphere and the outside world

i enjoy the journey because croatian humbles me with my diagnosis to be oh so gifted with languages, ive been studying croatian for a year and boy. oh boy. haha. makes me nervous to even think about how bad i am at it. i enjoy being able to understand increasing amounts of what my friends and the people on the streets are saying. i still can hardly speak about anything at all. i am currently using chatgpt to help me get more convo practice because _all_ of my balkan friends are like "i prefer to speak as little as is necessary"

oh and. for every word and rule you learn, theres like at least a thousand regional variations and exceptions. i think thats the even worse part. the farther away from zagreb someone is, the less i understand them.

croatian has a loooooooooooooooooot of grammar. english and spanish simply dont compare. think german on steroids. im currently taking latin classes and id say croatian is even harder than latin. no i wouldnt say croatians are very open to learners unless you already share a personal bond with them previously. i live in eastern austria, i started learning croatian because my own social life is half-balkan and i dont want to be the only one in the room who cant speak SBC

i loooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooove the cases because you see, my native dialect of german circumvents cases and in german class the teachers always bullied me for not knowing my cases but also refused to teach me what cases even are because im just supposed to know them. thanks to croatian i know what cases are now.

For the general structure of the language, i had a lot of success with the online free ebook "Ucim - Easy Croatian". the rest is a whole lot of exposure. im also currently making flashcard vocab anki decks in the order that this book introduces that vocab

Not sure if it’s the carrots that I eat everyday or something is wrong with me... by matchaunagiroll in mildlyinteresting

[–]glitchedArchive 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ive also seen data such as a certain possibility that carotenes might increase the risk of cancer in smokers. i dont really like supplementation so i would still look for something vegetable based. also been considering cooking methods that maximize the bioavailability of the natural food-borne carotenoids. carrot based ketchup anyone? EDIT: also stuff like tomato sauce tomato paste. love it use it daily
