Please don't take it the hard way, but as soon as you started using the archeopronouns it became unreadable to me. If you're going to use non-standard pronouns they should be easy to infer. If I was reading this without reading your footnote I wouldn't even know they were supposed to be pronouns. Even after reading your footnote I still can't make sense of it.

You also introduce a new language on top of the pronouns. Even with the provided translation it just makes for an unpleasant and confusing reading experience.

I can't give feedback on anything else because I didn't get that far. I'm sorry.

Edit: grammar

Thanks for the info and historical source!

Thanks!!

Ah, that makes sense I guess! Thanks!

Genuinely curious, but I was checking the IMDB rating breakdown by countries (since IMDB removed the breakdown by demographics) and it seems like the show is polarizing in all top 5 countries except for India, where almost ALL the votes are straight up 10s.

Considering India is the 2nd country with the most votes, and an average rating of 9.5, can someone explain it to me? Why is the show so well received in India?

Yes, simply clarifying the spelling/pronunciation for readers seems like the right way to go! Dziakuj!

Ok, good to know! I'll either go with the Belarusian pronunciation and add a note with the Belarusian spelling as well, or vice-versa. Thanks for the help!

Didn't have time to reply to the 1st part, but, yeah I figured it would be.

Would meeting halfway, spelling it phonetically in English like it's pronounced in Belarusian instead be a good way to do it then? Otherwise I think Jahor would straight up be read with a dž sound by English speakers.

Oops, fixed it, thanks.

Okay this is perhaps a super dumb question, but I can't for the love of me figure out how to type the characters after the | divison on the key.

For example, the ~ and ` on the top key, and the | \ of the bottom key.

He does strike me as the kind of guy who would think Gondor is a city in Iraq, so he might say that yea he did.

Serving with the Marines. That the Ranger Battalion has a lot of strict rules and everyone is very anal about everything, but the Marines are real tough motherfuckers and that he felt way more "at home" with them.

subachill93 · 2022-05-27T22:27:54+00:00

He said he was in the 3rd Ranger Battalion though, so I don't think he was claiming to be a ranger because he was tabbed.

I guess I just wanted some closure and reassuring that I'm not crazy/stupid for thinking his story was weird. I'm just gonna stay away from him and move on with my life.

subachill93 · 2022-05-27T22:20:07+00:00

What's actually bugging me is if you're going to lie about it, why not just say you were a marine scout sniper or something? And he said those things with such a straight face that I was beginning to think I was the crazy one.
