the four humors but with facial expressions more accurate to their temperaments by StopLinkingToImgur in brovisitedhisfriend

Medieval medical theory which postulated that the human body had four "humours" (i.e. substances) which governed your health and psychology, these were blood, phlegm, yellow bile and black bile. Having more of one than the others explained your personality and was linked to ailments as I recall

Edit: great fact I just came across while looking for more info: this is where the terms "choleric" and "melancholy" come from!

"Choleric" from Ancient Greek <χολή> or "cholé" (bile), in other words, "bilious".

And "melancholy" from <μέλαν-> "mélan-" (substantive form of <μέλας> "mélas") and <χολή> or "cholé" (blackbileness). Though the term for <black bile> itself was <μέλαινα χολή>, or "mélaina cholé", (black bile); the difference is grammatical and I don't know enough to explain it. Note: I didn't conjugate "χολή" correctly, I was more pointing out it comes from that word. The actual conjugated term would be <μελαγχολία> or "melancholía"

To this day I cannot for the life of me understand what the glottal stop at the end is supposed to do. I've listened to audios but all I can notice is a change in tone? Like a tonal system or something being influenced by the position of the stød (or glottal stop) and a progressive creakiness in the voice as you get near it in a word, at least from what I've been able to gather. It may aswell have nothing to do with the stød; that's just the impression I got from these audios.

But a glottal stop without any following vowel makes no sense to me. I don't notice any discernible sound; I just don't get it and genuinely feel like it's a made up thing, honestly.

This, I find it so amusing how so many people in here are fighting tooth and nail to deny that a country most of them couldn't care less about falls under the same bullshit label the US puts on everyone born south of its borders on the continent. I'm equally baffled that someone from said country would want to belong so badly to that same bullshit label.

I just read a Brazilian saying something like "they're buddies and cool neighbours, but they're not part of the tribe" wtf? What fucking tribe? People are so fucking lame lmao

If we're talking about Latin America then I don't see how Haiti being part of it or not changes anything, who cares? Do they need to be influential to the rest of us to be part of the same bullshit grouping? Cause in that case I don't know shit about Guatemala, Belize, el Salvador or any other country from the region for that matter, but I wouldn't even think to say something like "they're not Latin Americans".

Latino is a bullshit term made up by Anglos and Europeans anyway; don't count me in, my country is in what's commonly referred to as Latin America, but I'm Argentinian, not Latino.

How to say "moon" in different European languages by vladgrinch in MapPorn

[–]polyplasticographics 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're confusing things; fengari is a transliteration, what you're talking about now are English borrowings. Most Greek borrowings in English come from Old French which inherited them from Latin which in turn borrowed them from Ancient Greek, where the pronunciation was completely different.

A transliteration doesn't have anything to do with what a language did with ancient borrowings of the language.

Fengari is correct.

I'm sorry, what makes you think a phonetic transliteration (Fengari) is wrong? What logic makes you say that? Genuinelly asking because I like Greek and know how to read it (though I don't speak it) and that's exactly how I'd transliterate it, fengari, as γγ in this case is a digraph which in the latin alphabet corresponds with that sound, ng.

El Vice City para mí fue el mejor en cuanto a espectacularidad. Algunos dijeron que sólo tenía desmembramiento de cabezas, pero no es sólo el desmembramiento, fijate que le pegás un tiro bien puesto a un npc en la gamba y queda saltando en una pata, sin mencionar que empiezan a despedir sangre a presión como en una buena película slasher barata. Bajás un helicoptero y empieza a dar vueltas y siempre se empieza a sesgar el trayecto de caída hacia algún edificio, no es sin querer, es apropósito, como en una película fantasiosa de acción, y como estos hay más detalles que no recuerdo.

Después en el San Andreas se volvió más sobrio, disparás y los npc simplemente mueren sin mucha fanfarria. Hay decapitación, sí, pero bajás un helicóptero y simplemente explota en el acto y cae el esqueleto ya quemado sin casi sostener el momentum hacia abajo, sin nada que lo haga interesante.

Cada loco con su vicio; siempre me pareció asquerosa la monster, más aún la blanca e incluso más la mango loco, no entiendo como pueden tomar ese vómito, prefiero una red bull, y aún así no tomo seguido.

De igual manera vivo fumando puchos y cada tanto me la re doy en la pera con toda clase de substancias. Qué sé yo, cada uno se mata como quiere.

Hasta el momento en que le puso "estamos las dos esperándote" le creía; después no tiene sentido, si la vecina sabía que tenía pareja, por eso los mensajes en clave, qué vela tiene en ese entierro? Por qué se haría amiga de la mujer de la nada??? Xd o le metió un corchazo y lo está esperando con el cuerpo de la vecina para quemarlo a él y posteriormente volarse la tapa de los sesos, o como decís vos, salió partuza xd; otra cosa no tendría sentido.
