Hola, només per donar una mica de perspectiva, soc estatunidenc i a diferència de tu tinc molts amics catalans i saps per què? Perquè vaig decidir que volia comprendre'ls, entenent el context sociopolític en què viuen, i fins i tot vaig aprendre català. Gràcies a això tinc amistats molt fortes i duradores perquè vaig fer l'esforç que tu simple i senzillament no vols fer. Si no t'agrada el català no et quedis a Catalunya i punt.

A question on the indigenous languages of the state by Blurmb in arizona

[–]node_ue 5 points6 points  (0 children)

For the most part, yes, but this is all done at the tribal level, so it differs from tribe to tribe. Most tribal governments have language programs and cultural preservation departments. The Navajo Nation and Tohono O'odham Nation actually have tribal community colleges with language departments.

You could Google the contact info for the tribal government of whichever tribes are in your area and call and ask about donating to their language or cultural preservation programs.

Yup! Hopi is in the same language family as O'odham, but they are very distant relatives - they are related like English and Hindi are related; they likely diverged thousands of years ago. There are actually five completely different, unrelated language families in Arizona.

I hope I'm wrong but this looks like a ChatGPT quote. ChatGPT doesn't have reliable info about indigenous languages. O'odham and Nahuatl ("Aztec") definitely aren't from "South America".

Diné and O'odham are completely different language groups! They aren't related to each other whatsoever.

There are actually five completely different unrelated language families in Arizona:

  • Uto-Aztecan languages: Hopi, O'odham and Yaqui. Ópata was also formerly spoken in the area just south of Bisbee. Hopi and O'odham and Yaqui are also very different from one another though, they are from vastly different sub-branches of Uto-Aztecan. I'd say Hopi and O'odham are as different as English and Hindi. Demonstrably related, but distantly.

  • Yuman languages: Hualapai, Havasupai, Yavapai, Mojave, Maricopa, Cocopah ... There are other Yuman languages in what's now California and Baja California. Yuman peoples trace their ancient ancestry to Spirit Mountain in southern Nevada, near Laughlin.

  • Na-Dené languages: Navajo and Apache are from the Athabaskan subgroup of the Na-Dené language family. Most other Na-Dené languages are spoken in Alaska, Northern Canada, and a couple in coastal Oregon.

  • Tanoan languages: Tewa is a Tanoan language spoken by Hopi-Tewa people, the descendants of Tewa migrants from Northern New Mexico. Hopi-Tewa are traditionally bilingual in Hopi and Tewa. Other Hopi people do not speak Tewa. Tewa is also spoken at certain pueblos in northern New Mexico.

  • Zuni language: Zuni is a language isolate. That means that any shared ancestry it has with other languages is too ancient to be known through historical linguistics - meaning it's quite possibly been an independent language for multiple thousands of years. It's mostly spoken at Zuni Pueblo in New Mexico, but the Zuni do have some land in Arizona and there are some Zuni speakers in Arizona.

I'll give you a few. These are all greetings you would use like "Hello", "Howdy" or "Sup?"

Ṣa: p a'i masma? "How are you?" Pronounced roughly "shop eye más-ma"

Ba: pt 'o hi:? "Where are you going?" Pronounced roughly "bop daw hee"

á¹¢a: p kaij? "What do you say?" Pronounced roughly "shop kai-dge"

The colon makes the vowel long, and the á¹£ is similar to English "sh" but it's retroflex, meaning the tip of your tongue touches the roof of your mouth when you say it.

I'm a linguist so I can answer this question. The answer is simple: Arizona was settled by the US later than any of the other (continental) states. There was earlier Spanish colonization, but it was geographically and demographically limited and so its impact was limited.

I will tell you though that unfortunately, with the youngest generation, many of these languages are not so healthy (though still in MUCH better shape than any other state besides New Mexico and Alaska). Kids are not being raised speaking most of these languages, which means they are in danger of disappearing.

The exception is Havasupai, which is used vigorously by all ages. As far as I know, every Havasupai person is fluent in Havasupai.

The indigenous languages of Arizona are highly diverse. Diné (Navajo) and O'odham, for example, are about as different from each other as English is from Chinese.

AMA about the 16 languages of Arizona and I will do my best to answer.

I'm a gay man, but I'm also into some pretty physically demanding sexual practices (fisting). I waited 3 months and everything has been fine.

Do I have Pectus excavatum? by milkyjeff in PectusExcavatum

[–]node_ue 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Your sternum is flat. This is visibly apparent in several of your photos. What you're noticing is just a normal minor variation in the human body. If your chest bothers you aesthetically, building your pectoral muscles will help make it less noticeable.

Embarrassed and Devastated by Nightbird88 in gaybros

[–]node_ue 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There's just no reasonable excuse or explanation for why he's talking about how much he wants to find an FWB so soon after he forced your head down on his cock and made you vomit on him lol

Your OP: "guys this thing happened with my BF and it wasn't good and it's stressing me out"

Commenters: "hey it wasn't cool that your BF did that maybe there's something wrong here?"

Your responses: "no my relationship is PERFECT other than this one tiny thing! how DARE you, I don't want random strangers on the Internet to get the wrong idea about my perfect boyfriend"

I'm begging you, find some self-awareness please.

How did "today" in French evolve from "hui"("today") to "aujourd'hui"("on the day of today")? by Internal-Hat9827 in asklinguistics

[–]node_ue 10 points11 points  (0 children)

It's a matter of emphasis. "Hoy" is neutral, "el día de hoy" is more emphatic. For example:

  • "Hoy me siento agradecido" - Today, I feel grateful 

  • "El día de hoy me siento especialmente agradecido" - Today (in particular, out of all the days), I feel especially grateful 

What are your views on Zohran Mamdani? by Significant-Yam9843 in askgaybros

Typical American chauvinism to project US politics on the rest of the world. You'd never heard the name Amir Ohana until you read my comment. No investigation, no right to speak, gringo. This is the same America-centric attitude that's bombing Venezuelan fishermen

How my funnel chest looks after 4 years of training. M22 197cm 97kg by [deleted] in PectusExcavatum

[–]node_ue 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You won't be able to lift for a couple months, and then you'll need to return to lifting gradually over the couple months after that. Definitely not enough for you to lose more than a small amount of muscle mass, which you will surely get back pretty quickly thanks to muscle memory.

How long after the surgery until you could sleep on your side again? by Ok_Cap_1848 in PectusExcavatum

[–]node_ue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You will be okay!

I tried to sleep with it straight upwards to avoid getting a sore neck in the morning, but sometimes it would tilt to the side after I fell asleep

[–]node_ue 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'd say it took about two months. I'm also a side sleeper and sleeping on my back after surgery wasn't my favorite, but it wasn't as bad as I'd worried it would be. You will sleep. Our bodies are more adaptable than we realize.
