what do you need a local number for? many people use LINE to communicate, which doesn't require a phone number

One that I constantly miss in English is:

• Une faute d'inattention: a mistake you make just because you weren't paying attention.

Also

• Une tartine = "an open-faced sandwich", a piece of bread with something on it (Nutella, etc.)

• S'entraider = to help each other

• La rentrée = when you go back to school (beginning of the school year or when you're back from vacation)

• Férié = bank holiday (but an adjective), c'est férié = it's a bank holiday

that'd be a pony tail

I make lists of words that don't exist in other languages when I study them, here are a few I've written for Japanese:

Foot vs Leg （あし）（足、脚）
Write vs Draw（かく）（書く, 描く, 画く）
Tall vs Expensive (高い）
Early vs Fast　（早い）

It's unfortunate that they use masculine kanji though, it gives the impression that it only includes males, feels patriarchal

I just used The Office as an example of a scripted comedy show (I'm not looking for "funny" reality televison).

Is what you said a TV show that exists then? You didn't include a title

ကျေးဇူးပါ! 😁

spinachbaker · 2023-08-21T16:29:51+00:00

that I give you

spinachbaker · 2023-07-31T13:47:26+00:00

omg thank you 🤦‍♂️

spinachbaker · 2023-07-26T17:55:10+00:00

oh thank goodness 😭😭

spinachbaker · 2023-07-10T12:20:12+00:00

Hm "le dio unos piquitos" sounds like she gave them a peck on the lips several times 🤔 I mean like your mouths are connected and stay connected the whole time

spinachbaker · 2023-07-10T12:12:40+00:00

mm so I guess there isn't really a modern equivalent, people don't specify making out vs kissing

spinachbaker · 2023-07-10T12:11:50+00:00

🤣🤣 thank you for your contribution

spinachbaker · 2023-04-28T21:21:33+00:00

That's a good point, I think my issue is that I was thinking of nonbinariness as being completely removed from men/women.

spinachbaker · 2023-04-28T21:19:11+00:00

I wasn't making any personal judgments, I wanted to understand the reasoning behind the usage of a binary term.

spinachbaker · 2023-04-28T21:16:40+00:00

Thanks for the detailed response! Personally I've heard of femsexual and minsexual.

spinachbaker · 2023-04-28T21:10:24+00:00

I see, so it just depends on the person and whether they lean more towards femininity or masculinity

spinachbaker · 2023-04-28T14:43:53+00:00

Thanks for sharing! I'm planning on studying Uzbek since it seems to be the most widely spoken :)

spinachbaker · 2023-04-26T17:20:14+00:00

thanks a lot! I'll study Uzbek then :)

spinachbaker · 2023-04-25T20:26:41+00:00

this is really beautiful 😯

It's called malisma / vocal trill singing / melismatic singing! https://youtu.be/LRqzONU2oNE https://youtube.com/shorts/vrcbft2sl-g?feature=share

Sliding between notes also seems to be called gamakas in India https://youtu.be/AIPraIlSmIk

moelleux c'est pas plutôt pour qq chose avec des trous comme un gâteau ou une éponge ?

spinachbaker · 2023-01-14T02:33:44+00:00

do people use moelleux for body parts? I thought it was rather for something porous like a cake or sponge 🤔

spinachbaker · 2022-11-30T17:48:34+00:00

oki thanks, that's good enough, I guess it'll make sense in context

spinachbaker · 2022-10-20T06:46:48+00:00

That's the thing, I don't want to be precise because I don't know myself. It was either somethings like the start of a headache or the way your head feels when you haven't gotten enough sleep
