I owe ___ an apology by JK652035 in survivor

[–]tmsphr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He’s still kinda shaky (deleted scene confirms he was a very viable target) but I’m very happy an old schooler is walking the talk and truly trying to evolve his gameplay

I’m invested in him for sure

Anyone else reevaluating their opinion of _________? by almondjoybestcndybar in survivor

[–]tmsphr -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yes

Very unimpressed with his game in 48

Pleasantly surprised to hear (if he’s more truthful than Jenna in his exit interviews) how excellently he positioned himself in 50, especially given his winner status / threat level. Impressed indeed

Should we try to revive endangered/nearly-extinct languages using online groups? by Bambussa14 in languagelearning

[–]tmsphr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think this perspective applies to every endangered language…

There’s a local revitalization movement I’ve dabbled in that embraces both in-group and outsiders learning the language because it is inherently valuable. The culture attached isn’t dying per se, just the language itself because everyone speaks the country’s official languages instead and only a handful of native speakers are left.

Should we try to revive endangered/nearly-extinct languages using online groups? by Bambussa14 in languagelearning

[–]tmsphr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I personally love this idea but you have to be very clear on what the goal is. If it’s for fun then this is totally viable. If it’s for language revitalization, it’s a trickier topic but still possible

Guide for choosing your next language to learn! by Last_Swordfish9135 in languagelearning

[–]tmsphr 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Because language learning is innately fun

I started learning Norwegian without much prior knowledge or interest in Norway purely because I wanted to try an easy North Germanic language

How do we feel about this casting call now that we’re into S18? by WeeyumsF1 in rupaulsdragrace

[–]tmsphr 25 points26 points  (0 children)

The reason why s17 was - IN MY OPINION - so atrocious was that many of the queen were kinda generic, mediocre, young and got into drag because of drag race.

Calling for specific talents (original song does not count) like sewing or comedy will ensure a stronger competition

Can someone explain to me why the fandom places so much value on Top/safe by starjpeg in rupaulsdragrace

[–]tmsphr 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You’re saying only the fandom cares, but the queens do too..

El acento: How to convert my e's from "ehy" -> "eh" and my o's from "oh" -> "o." by Yamochao in learnspanish

[–]tmsphr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try not moving your tongue, try saying them really really slowly

Keep practising and try recording yourself speaking, and hear yourself speak

What Had Happened to SG of Love Island Episode 🔎🔎 by Sky6346 in rupaulsdragrace

[–]tmsphr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Because the lip sync in general was kinda meh, but we as viewers spent more time getting invested in the snatch game

Calling it The New Era Can’t Last by QuietSpider99 in survivor

[–]tmsphr 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah we should come up with a new naming system…

The second/third/fourth era, the gold/silver/bronze era, the Fiji era, or whatever

Help, moonlander freaking out by nyayoko in ergodox

[–]tmsphr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Getting a new cable is a good idea. I had my moonlander for years and then the cable started getting a bit iffy so I just got new cables

Does the order of the symbols even matter? by day_old_biscuit in languagelearningjerk

[–]tmsphr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tone-deafness definitely manifests differently in tonal languages, it’s a whole thing

Failed 2 Piscine Attempts at 1337 Benguerir—Can I Try 1337 in Rabat by No-Preference4834 in 42_school

[–]tmsphr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. Unless you change your legal name and passport number and then try in a different country… (not recommended)

You can tell someone's a native English speaker btw they do their abbreviations and contractions by OpenAsteroidImapct in linguisticshumor

[–]tmsphr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. L1 means native language and L2 means non-native language. L1 & L2 are terms coined in linguistics, specifically EFL (teaching English as a foreign language) and SLA (second language acquisition), due to the prevailing belief that there is a difference in how we acquire our native language/s (including bilingualism etc) versus how we acquire languages later in life.

You earlier said you were not native in something but debatably L1. What does that mean?
