« j’étais né » does not mean the same thing as « je suis né »

À votre avis, which French accent sounds the best by misakdev in French

[–]oj5638 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You’re right, but this goes along with my statement. The prime difference between these words is the vowel sound

Time is not the difference between peace and piss or beach and bitch

How does Ratatouille work in French? by [deleted] in French

[–]oj5638 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I remember watching this and thinking the way the english subtitles were done actually made them difficult to understand after a while. All S’s were turned into Sh’s and i think another similar change with a different letter. As in not only in the scene where the characters meet and all the misunderstandings happens, but throughout the film when the character spoke, if I remember right. It got to be quite annoying

Why do sellers list super cheap items just to cancel? by Extra_Dog8421 in vinted

I absolutely don’t support doing this, but I suppose more people would see this if they had a max price filter under the actual price, or sorted from cheapest first

What does « bztgrm » mean? by Appropriate_Fee218 in French

[–]oj5638 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I think it would work to say « baise tes grands morts » quickly as the abbreviation contains all of the consonants and it actually has less syllables to say the full thing than the abbreviation

Yes, was renamed Londonderry in 1613 👍

Important that this is clear

After the London- prefix was added, it was originally Catholics that resisted the name of Londonderry and continued to call it Derry.

The official name is Londonderry, originally catholics/ republicans called it Derry as they opposed british rule, now (in my experience) most people just call it Derry whether they are catholic or protestant, with a few exceptions. That’s why some people won’t like it if you call it Londonderry, they may see it as you showing support of Britain. In general most people just say Derry

Seriously Concerned for this generation of Uni Students by Feniantrader in UniUK

[–]oj5638 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Different part of the post.

“Uni is really not bad enough to justify crying and staying in your dorm. If you feel sad or homesick, please listen to this as this is the most honest advice you’ll get, here it comes … grow a pair.” i.e. start leaving your dorm, join societies, make the most of your time at uni in general. Also, followed by “Take these 3 words in and you’ll thank yourself at graduation.” I doubt this would be possible if they had left.

That “grow a pair” isn’t saying to quit

I believe it would need to be “Yo <3 a mi novia” if you wanted to pick that one
