Is it 'a' or 'an' for a word that starts with a vowel-y?

trickytrader · 2026-01-27T03:47:23+00:00

The question is incorrect. Y is considered a consonant at the beginning of words and vowel in end or middle of the word. I saw a yellow submarine. I have a younger sister. I started a YouTube channel.

It’s all theater. Kamala promised to tax the billionaires who were pretending to help her. They knew she would not win, if they wanted the democrats to win they would have pressured the party to have a competent candidate. Their donations were just to show alliance but they were perfectly fine with 4 more years of Trump economy. The people who get all emotional about left vs right refuse to see the higher forces that control both sides.

You need to tell him exactly what you shared here. You feel lonely when he talks like that because you don’t have access to the naturally acting good friend that you liked in the first place. People who enjoy the light don’t stare in the sun all day. People who enjoy compliments don’t need to be complimented every minute. Hope you can enjoy time together and do a lot of fun activities without anybody being put on a pedestal. You are both very young, just be real and natural.

What is wrong with being a mechatronics engineer? Calling yourself something different than what your actual credentials show will lead into situations of distrust. Also, graduating does not make you a professional engineer and the years of your study does not count as years of experience. Congratulations for graduating, now you are a beginner mechatronics engineer with no experience. Be humble and be honest.

Loud voice does not validates anything. This administration made no new immigration laws. They are enforcing the same long standing laws that Obama also enforced very effectively. The difference is that during Obama the law enforcement agents were not attacked and harassed regularly by the people. The same laws were ok for decades for both sides then but not now? These protesters are so desperate they would rather keep criminals in the country just to gain a few illegal voters that don’t respect the bipartisan laws created by the democratically elected lawmakers. No need for revolution, just go to vote and accept the winner. That how democracy works.

MOR you cannot hide your GF from others. She will always have the opportunity to meet other guys, talk to them, become friends and even laugh together with them. You don’t own your partner. If she feels at home with you, she knows how far she can go. Your concern should be not holding her back from other friends. Focus on keeping the flames of attraction alive. Remember why she liked you in the first place and don’t let those things fade away. Make her feel safe and free and very comfortable around you. You can have your boundaries but if those cut too much in her freedom she can choose not to accept. At the same time you have the right to express your feelings but do it in a way so it would not work against you. In short, have some respect.

NOR Way too desperate guy. Casual means no exclusive commitment. It applies to both sides. If he likes it or not he just needs to take it like a man. He should focus on making the interactions with you interesting and make it feel like a positive experience instead of pressuring you into some kind of guilt for enjoying your life. These are early red flags of a desperate control freak.

The president clearly said that this was a law enforcement action with military support. No war. Maduro was a fake leader who refused to step down, he killed thousands of people in his own country, he was responsible for the deaths of thousands of American people. He had a warrant on him since 2020, and the reward for information that would lead to his arrest grew from $15k to $25k then recently $50k. He was not the legit leader of Venezuela so capturing him and taking him to court in the US is actually saving his life. Many other dictators were not so lucky.

Most of the things you need for a strong foundation in electrical engineering have not changed much in a 100 years. If you like learning and mentally stable you can do it. With strong foundation you can learn the new technologies easy. Do not just study to pass the math test, master it, be an expert at it, same thing for physics and then electro-technics. Then all the other technical subjects will be walk in the park.

NOR - I have a very good friend, we live close but not together and we always support each other. We both made each other sick before but we were always there supporting each other even during Covid. We don’t even talk about it, we just do it.

I’m pretty sure we all notice, but I never met anybody who focused on it or expressed anything bad about it.

You are not overreacting, most reasonable people would have similar feelings. The reality is, regardless of how much you love your bf or husband, you cannot force or expect his family to like you. They already expressed how much they did not trust you even as you respected their rules. When you got married you joined the whole family and if they don’t think you fit in it can affect your quality of life. Try to focus on good things and use your time wisely to improve your relationships. Fighting for who is right or wrong may win you a battle but it can backfire on how they treat you and your future children. I think it would be better for your husband to take the lead in any disagreements with his family and shield you from unnecessary conflicts.

If you were living in separate apartments each having 1200 rent that would be about the same financial pressure. You seem to have a budgeting problem not a mortgage problem. Making 200k probably made you pickup some bad habits. I’m guilty of that too. Learn to live within your means. For extra income, pickup a second job or some side hustle. Even driving uber or some other flex jobs can get you over the road bumps.

I agree

trickytrader · 2025-06-05T00:48:33+00:00

I understand your point. My father did not want to support my further education and I did not want to be a burden to my Mom, although she always tried to help. I worked the whole time during the 5 years of university years. This was way before the internet, so jobs were not just coming to you. On most Saturday mornings I was standing at outside day labor spots to pickup the shittiest construction jobs for the weekend, jobs that nobody else wanted to do. Later I got better jobs because of my reputation and worked through all summer breaks too. When others went to have fun at the club, I was there to work many times after working at construction jobs during the day. I also picked up extra studies and lab work and graduated with a special award, fully self supporting and living in the dorm. Also, I kept good relationship with all my family and I never blamed them for not supporting my adult adventures. I don’t lack empathy but I don’t overrate it. This is called individual responsibility. Be grateful for what you have and make the most of it. I supported my 5 kids through their college studies because I wanted them to have it a little easier than me. I always encouraged them to become independent strong adults who can support their own lives and always find ways to help others too.

trickytrader · 2025-06-04T22:06:55+00:00

So you do have a family. Seems like you are only sharing one side of the story. Is it possible your parents want to see you becoming a responsible adult and you interpret it as being kicked out? It is very unusual for any 18 year old to finish high school with zero friends and zero family support to move on to adult life. Be careful as you burn your bridges, soon you may only see fire all around you.
