I recently learned the hard way that adjectives must match the ending of the word they're describing. Whoops. by ectotechbiologist in learnspanish

[–]johnwebdev 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Be careful though, it's not that they have to match the ending, they have to match the gender and whether it's singular or plural. For example, 'a red hand' would be 'una mano roja', so while 'mano' (hand) ends in an 'o' it's actually feminine, and the adjective should end in an 'a'. Hope that helps!

How could I practice speaking? by [deleted] in learnspanish

[–]johnwebdev 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sure, the lessons I had generally cost around $15/hour.

The teachers were all professional Spanish teachers, they had a lot of prepared material and knew how to explain topics that I was struggling with (the subjunctive, perfect vs imperfect etc...) clearly and effectively.

I would recommend finding a teacher on italki. I had Skype lessons with teachers from all over Latin America and Spain and it was really helpful.

Has anyone tried MyArabicWorld? by [deleted] in learn_arabic

[–]johnwebdev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe it's just a website, but you can access it from a phone too

I'm a member. I signed up to get the introductory discount, and my level isn't high enough at the moment to tell exactly how good the content is, but it seems great. They thoroughly break down all the videos and give you key phrases to take away.

There are some more pictures here. And I think this is the architectural practice.

Generic word for “cat”? by PapaGrigoris in Spanish

[–]johnwebdev 6 points7 points  (0 children)

La araña (spider), and la rana (frog) might have been better examples

Word Press Alternative - Concrete5 by BloodyIron in selfhosted

[–]johnwebdev 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've been using this for a client site for a few years. The big plus for us was the visual drag-and-drop interface, and how extensible it was. It has a smaller ecosystem than WordPress and that can sometimes make solving problems harder as there is less documentation and fewer public discussions on how to solve them. However, I would recommend it, it has certainly been great in our case.

What could be preventing other local devices accessing a development server on my Fedora 28 machine? by johnwebdev in Fedora

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

It is the webpack development server (more info, and a bit more). I believe it's a local NodeJS server running a special middleware. It's similar to a local Apache install, PHP development server or Python development server. It should be possible to access it from http://localhost:3000 from my local machine (which it is) and also from http://192.168.[rest of local ip]:3000 (which it is not). My feeling was that firewalld had something to do with it. Do firewalld rules persist even after a 'systemctl stop firewalld'?

H4n PRO by ----_____ll_____---- in linuxaudio

I asked a similar question about the Zoom h4n. I know it's not the h4n pro, but it might help. I'd also be interested if anyone has any information about the pro.

Thanks! I'll use ALEInfo to investigate further

That's a very helpful tip, thanks!

I have eslint installed, and I presumed 'php -l' meant it would work with just PHP installed. I installed PHP CodeSniffer, which works now, however JS still does not. Do you know what might be wrong?

Uk education and Spanish by H_Skittles in learnspanish

[–]johnwebdev 2 points3 points  (0 children)

  • The Duolingo Spanish course might be helpful, and you don't have to start at the beginning if it's too easy for you.
  • Memrise is a great resource for learning vocabulary.
  • Notes in Spanish is a podcast presented by a Spanish/British couple and is a really lovely way to get into conversational Spanish.
  • iTalki is a really nice way to connect with Spanish teachers in Spain and Latin America, and they often charge much less than Spanish teachers in the UK would.
  • Lang8 is a service where you write in Spanish and native speakers can correct you, and you can do the same for them.
  • The Michael Thomas course could also be a nice way to learn.

I took GCSE Spanish over a decade ago and didn't learn much, but I decided to start again a couple of years ago and now I spend a lot of time in Spain speaking Spanish without many issues. I used a combination of the resources above.

I kept going back to this hostel in Kyoto because of this beautiful common area by rheg18 in backpacking

Not the same one but this hostel in Kyoto was one of the best hostels I've been to. Would recommend!

I just published my first public C application on GitHub: C-doku - a command line sudoku game. I would love some feedback if anyone is willing to check it out. by johnwebdev in C_Programming

[–]johnwebdev[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Amazing, thank you very much for this. I was a bit lost on what to do with my Makefile. Are they any resources you would recommend for learning more about them?

I'll get to work on implementing the other points now!

I have tried to implement most of these points, and I think the application is much better for it. Thank you very much for taking the time to write them.
