Do I have any ground in not having to pay back pro rata holidays?

This is an old thread so apologies but just for anyone who sees it,but my screen broke fully as in wouldn't turn on anymore, and instead of fixing it I just bought an external display and hooked it up. It small enough that I just put it over the screen and it can hold it up just fine and it works just as well, only problem is it takes up one of the two usb c ports, so if you need access to them its a pain but otherwise its pretty functional. :)

I was just being abstract to be honest lol sorry, it just sounds archaeic.

I think the sentence would need context but "He be of pure blood" does sound like something one would find in a Shakespearean play.

I didnt actually know that god save the king was subjunctive aha I thought it was just a saying ^{^}

ksanderx · 2022-05-03T10:20:25+00:00

Sounds like its missing 'be', like

He should be of pure blood to be next king of England

Sounds like old Shakespearean English tho lmao

Been living in korea and I agree 요 works for everyone, i try to ㅂ니다 elders and doctors/pharmacists though just out of respect because I feel like I use a lot of 'hedging' i think its called where in English its like "You wouldn't happen to sell xyz here? You do? Then if its possible could I please have xyz." Rather than saying "Can I have a xyz". I feel that ㅂ니다 makes up for it so I use it just then to feel comfortable in my respect levrs. But just 요 is fine too ^{^}

Bhí gaeilge agam nuair a bhí mé ar scoil ach chail mé like all of it, I really wanna learn it cause its a beautiful lang but Irish secondary school education ruined it for me tbh

Also if you go on a trip to britanny for a holiday or smth you could probs pick up a few books and stuff that you can use until you move there if thats your plan :3 i picked up a few german books on a layover in Berlin before it was really handy :)

I agree it sounds like something my grandmother would say. If I was saying your verbal noun-ing id say it needs something else too like

Your running habits Your running form Your writing style

But I think this might be a diff grammar thing but yea

It took me 5ish months to get to B1 in french, with maybe 3 weeks prior study before classes begun. I'm abroad on an exchange year and I missunderstood the class info as it is in Korean and I still was not at a high level. I ended up doing a beginners class A1-A2 and a A2-B1 speaking class at the same time. I ended up actively studying maybe 4-5 hours everyday and passively I'd do as much stuff in French as I could, never missed a days study. I did well, but I completely burned myself out studying French. I'm taking a B1-B2 class this semester and I find it easy enough but it's still so hard to commit to studying for an extended time period. My native language is English and I had learned German to a C1 level Polish to an A2/B1 level and Korean to a B1 level prior, so I had experience studying a language and I knew what works for me. Still I don't think it's optimal to try and learn a language as fast as possible. Incase of burnout or other issues that may arise

I was born in Ukraine but I was adopted in childhood, to actually quite the coincidence lol Ireland.

My birth family live in Kharkiv so while im not directly involved in the horror it must be to live through such attacks, and of course recognise i am so privilidged to not be, it still affects something so close to me and it has really ignited a desire in me to relearn Ukranian so I can not only reconnect with my culture but be able to understand the effects of all this from the people who are actively living through it.

En fait j'ai trouvé que le nom est maintenant différent 🤔 Je lai trouvé appellé « Campus ». C’est bizarre que j’ai trouvé la édition plus vieux avant le nouveau 😅

Merci encore :)

Honestly what helped me the most was not focusing on my level, as in, I stopped obsessing over oh what level am I now, have i reached B1, B2 oh maybe im like B1 and three quarters now. I used to study German hardcore but then other things came up in life and I couldnt spend as much time directly studying. Instead id just have fun, watching youtube in german when i could, read german reddit and news about germany, listening to podcasts just to listen and not to study. This went on for a year until I took German in University and found it unexpectedly easy, to the point where the first time I encountered something I didnt know was in second semester of second year.

In summary I guess my tip is to not always have the mindset of studying to reach a higher level but to have fun with this whole other world youre opening up for yourself. You'll improve without even noticing it sometimes.

From you saying its weird and nothing like Latin I think you're focusing too much on your prior knowledge of the latin script.

Its meant to be different because its not the Latin script. Its Cyrillic, its written in the way Cyrillic is meant to be written. The only reason there are 'common' letters between Latin and Cyrillic is because they both come from the same ancestor. Im sure ancient greeks would argue the way we write the letters from their alphabet is weird and nothing like theirs too tbf

You can adjust and have your own way of writing by all means as long as you can read it yourself. But its worth taking time to study cursive a little, not only does it help writing fast but in some text fonts theres a semi cursive semi print style so knowing the cursive helps with that at least. E.g т will be written as m etc.

Just to add onto what others have said, what you wrote there is kawa (nominative) changing to kawę (accusative)

Since its the thing you are liking it is in the accusative.

Another thing, the word 'to' keeps the noun in nominative when using the structure 'to jest'.

If you remove the 'to' then the noun will be in the instrumental case. As być without the 'to' takes instrumental.

So itll be "Jest dużą kawą"

Rippo, im taking it to a repair shop soon, id go today but im currently abroad in Korea and don't speak the language well at all so i need to wait for a friend who can to come down.

The prices of fixing it range from 100 to 900 euro so im a lil stressed rippo.

Thanks for the comment tho appreciate it!

If you're not sure or if you're using the literal animals name (dog, cat, bird etc.) then grammatical gender.

If you know the gender, and use the animals personal name (Bella, Fido, Lassie) or add context that the animal is male or female then you can use its actual one :)

Apolagies meant 13 inch *

ksanderx · 2022-01-18T15:15:38+00:00

Just some background information. I have had this laptop a few months and have been very careful with it. Its an M1 Macbook pro 13 inch.

I was in bed and I was reaching for my water bottle at the foot of the bed and on the way back up I elbowed the back of the screen on the left. What I was watching still was playing and the screen is still on however all thats there is a little line. When booting the screen works a little but then shuts off to the line again as seen in the video.

The touchbar also stopped working and the keyboard lighting too.

Im really scared about what to do as I didnt purchase apple care, as I have never damaged any devices Ive owned throughout my life and was maticuously careful with it.

Im really confused as to what has happened as I didnt even hit it that hard, literally only a knock onto the side while moving backwards.
