For any of my fellow English speaking QSMP watchers looking to learn or brush up on their Spanish- I'm no expert, but I've done my time in middle and high school Spanish class, and I have a few website recs:
Word Reference: Spanish-English dictionary. Gives you information about multiple meanings of the word, as well as compound words and idioms. Also has a bunch of other languages (French, Italian, Catalan, German, Dutch, Swedish, Icelandic, Russian, Portuguese, Polish, Romanian, Czech, Greek, Turkish, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, and Arabic)
SpanishDict: Another Spanish-English dictionary. I mainly use it for looking up verb conjugations, since IMO its charts are much easier to read than Word Reference's. It also had some other features that you have to make an account to use.
Conjuguemos: Conjugation practice games (with a frog mascot!). It tries to get you to make an account, but you don't have to- just click "use without account". You can sort by tense, mood, and regularity, and there's both straightforward practice and flashcards and more gimmicky games. Also has vocab and grammar practice, and a few other languages (French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Korean, and Latin)

NOTION LANGUAGE HUB PAGE + FLASHCARDS
Since i’m studying Czech for my Erasmus stay in February, I decided to optimize my studies by creating a new notion page. I’m using it to write down the most important grammar rules, numbers, and for keeping tracks of vocabs and practice them with flashcards. I’m sharing it here because if someone wants the page in order to use it for the languagw they’re studying, I will be glad to share the link (for free, obviously). Just let me know. 🩷

Yesterday I found some really cool language stuff in a box on the street of stuff that people want to give away.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
A german-czech pocket dictionary. It's cute :)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
A hungarian basics express course (in german). I have no interest in hungarian (yet?) but I just love to read about other languages' grammar.
Tumblr media
And then we have this gem: a german-latin vocab trainer?? It looks like a calculator (it also has a calculator mode which i think is actually hilarious). It was in its original packaging but doesn't turn on. Maybe i'll get some batteries for it tomorrow to test if it still works. Still, who would give this away?? And how classy would it be if i'd practice latin vocab with this thing :')
I always like to look into these boxes because I'm collecting cook books and language books and people give them away a lot :D Also sometimes you just encounter the most random things in them.

The more angsty backstory Neige gets the more im attached to him kcmdmdms
No but i was thinking what are your thoughts on Neige being given nicknames in different languages (like how Casper calls him Zima ect.)? Bc ive been thinking about possible Neige nicknames in my native language (latvian!) And its been quite fun!
I even have some ideas:
- Ziema (means winter and is already very close to Zima so not really that unique)
- Sniegs (means snow and sounds pretty nice, can be turned into a pet name "sniedziņš" lol)
- Ledus (means ice and sounds very cold and brutal, doesnt exactly fit the character but still good)
- Sals (it means like frost or frostbite im pretty sure, sounds nice tho)
So yeah from now on i will be reffering to Neige as sniedziņš sometimes and no one can stop me.
(Also i love love love how you bring other languages into the podcast i speak literally no french but its nice to see it used so casually and just aagghhh its amazing <3. I love the representation of languages XD)
I am glad you are having fun gnawing on this prehistoric boy. And yeah!! So, without getting too much into canon, anything wintery or cold themed is an appropriate thing to call Neige, based on the conventions used to name him elsewhere. It's all based on the 'cold' reputation of his blood.
I LOVE the idea of nicknaming him something to do with frostbite, bc he DOES bite, it's a very important thing about him. He's a lover and a biter. No bark, all bite, and so on and so forth.
Anyway YES you are absolutely right in the way you're nicknaming him!!
I really love playing with languages. English is my first language, Welsh is my second, and I also speak a handful of French and Russian. I also know a little grab-bag of words in Italian and Spanish, but not much, and a few words here and there of Czech, but like. VERY scant. Like I know stray bits of vocab, and that is all.
Languages are so fun, I love how they work and relate to each other, I love how when you start learning a new language it's like 'oh the whole way I think about using words is not the default, there are other structures, other systems, different ways to communicate about these objects and this world'. I love how languages are alive and fluid and they borrow and share and steal and give and change and exchange. I love how it's all about connecting with other people and even when the language barrier is a wall, eventually you will find a way to speak with each other, because that's what people do.
Language <3 It's amazing. In my Top 10 Things Humans Did of All Time.

Last Monday of the Tuesday of the Week 2023-12-19
Ah cripes the Mondaypost
Listening: A friend's recommendation of Holy Monitor by Holy Monitor, a Greek psychedelic rock band. Here's Bend The Trees:
Reading: Got but did not start the new Murderbot.
Reading more of Ted Chiang's short story collection, including 72 words, a work of ?Golempunk? Fiction featuring linguistic genetics and your good old fashioned English classism.
Watching: Billy Elliot at the Movie Night, on a rare Good Movie Night instead of Bad Movie Night.
It's got a lot of compelling depictions of the struggle between ingrained tradition and what you know you actually think. There isn't really any great reveal where anyone's opinion changes, as much as there are moments where their adherence to their presupposed belief is overridden by the specifics of their situation. Also interesting to watch with someone who doesn't know British austerity history and who we gave a brief Crash Course in Thatcherism.
Playing: Beat the moonlight butterfly and Havel in Dark Souls, haven't touched it since then but I am not quite sure where to go next since I'm out of corpse arms and so I can't hit the ghosts anymore. I might need to explore elsewhere. I think I have a key for around Firelink that I haven't used yet...
Making: Not much, started writing out the DSL but didn't make much progress. This will probably be fallow for a while since I have my brother coming to stay for a couple weeks.
Tools and Equipment: Spaced repetition flashcards. I finally sat down and put together a Czech vocab and grammar card deck in Anki (which is why I forgot to Mondaypost yesterday), and it is a shockingly efficient way to ingest a large amount of vocabulary.

i don't know, i feel like lately i've been getting better at... doing things that are difficult? not to sound like a toddler, but it's so fucking hard to get myself to do things, even if i desperately want to do them, and like yeah i know that's Executive Dysfunction, it's just very hard for me to wrap my head around. putting under a readmore because i'm just shooting my mouth in multi-paragraph format.
i have lately been able to brute force Activities with much more success. stimulant is a help, not so much in terms of direct cognitive functioning as much as indirectly by making me less devastatingly tired at all times. i still have little control over the direction of my focus and get stuck doing things a lot, both enjoyable things and unenjoyable things. and things that were enjoyable and then they eventually become unenjoyable and i still can't stop. and et cetera. i jokingly say free will is a sham, because it has always felt on various levels that i have somehow, physically and metaphysically and whatever, not had access to the same level of free will as my peers. shoutout to that person who posted their 'tourette's and free will' thesis online and altered my vocabulary on that front forever lmao.
but like... i've been doing pretty consistent work on some translation, and when i finish this piece i'll submit it and hopefully i'll be able to build my portfolio with a volunteering opportunity with this organization that will post my occasional translations of articles with my name attached. i've been playing chess (not well, I'll say, but i've been studying and practicing). i've finished a couple art pieces (small drawings mostly, except for the camel i whittled over many days and weeks!). been practicing arabic almost every day, and reading on grammar on days that i'm not directly practicing vocab and such. i took a six week intensive stats class during the summer and i worked my ass off and got a B+ (note that i hadn't taken any math class since literally a decade ago). i've stuck this master gardener program class through to the end, and i just need to finish my volunteering hours within the next year (that will absolutely Not be a problem) and i'll be a proper master gardener in my county. i've spent most saturday mornings (early because i am the earliest timezone lmao) this past year since about april, with a couple months' break, playing a logh strategy board game. i moved out and have been handling it.
i think, and i don't want to exaggerate, but like. i have been deeply affected in the past by failure and having to drop out of things or simply not do things because of overwhelm and inability to keep up. i missed out on being definitely cast in a college theater production because of dumb shit on my end. i made it onto an international model united nations team that was going to go to the czech republic and poland to compete, but had to drop. i was going to double major, but couldn't swing it. i took six years to do a bachelor's degree that normally takes people three (four, if they double major), and did a summer language immersion program that i was burnt out so spectacularly by that i was paying for it for YEARS after. i spent all that time literally surviving that i learned approximately no arabic. definitely didn't go to jordan the year after that to study like literally everyone else in my program. all of the volunteer and internship opportunities i could not follow through upon because i simply COULD not, physically or mentally, do them.
i don't know, people are always like 'you've accomplished so much!' which like, yeah, i've definitely accomplished things, i never mean to discount the things i've done! but people have always said so as if it cancels out the devastation of being so close with these other things that i desperately wanted to do and almost did but then didn't because of various internal reasons. and then the feeling, simply out of habit, that, oh, why bother with this thing, you're not going to make it through. there's also a certain patronizing tone that people couch their words with when talking to me about, oh, sweaty, remember that you have your problems. you have SUCH a beautiful brain and i can tell how soooo smart you are as you struggle to communicate with your words. I'll Fucking Kill You With My Hands.
but. anyway. this is the first time i've ever felt like i've come close to actually thriving, despite some troubles with health that are going to come occasionally in inevitable waves, but i got through it. i supported myself financially, and i am living my life on this wretched and beautiful earth.
i changed the goalpost of this from 'doing immediately effortful things' and 'accomplishing goals' but honestly they're in the same enough vein that they occupy the same part of my heart, which is hopefully beginning to fuckin heal after the constant and pervasive disappointment in myself lmao. and some of that is learning to not be disappointed in myself, i guess. things happen, and there are people who have it worse than i've described above, certainly. i've been putting together some grad school apps, so here's to trying again at some shit because i am allowed to and because i probably have the ability to do it.

☾ +☯+❀
Oooh three of them! Let me see...
☾ : favourite word from your language Goesting. Like. That's a no brainer. A classic, for sure, but it just has to be. It's a word for the feeling when you want something, like a craving, almost? Like if you want a Big Mac at 3am, you have goesting. It's not just food though - it could be sexual, it could be wanting to punch someone, it could be wanting to go out for a walk. So it's a good feeling, and also it just sounds very homely. So that :).
☯ : what do you love about your language? That is actually a very hard one... I think. The dialects, honestly? Even if I don't speak any of them properly. So idk how familiar you are with Belgium but I'm in the Northern part which means I speak Dutch. And not only does every province have its own accent - every city and even every village has a distinct vocab and dialect. Of course now it's largely sanitized and there's few people who speak actual dialects anymore, but I remember as a kid trying to use the local dialect and my dad making fun of me cause I was using words I learned from my grandparents, who were from two villages over, and someone from OUR village would NEVER say it like that :D. And I understand there's dialects in every language and such, but you have to understand that (without traffic) it'll take you less than three hours to drive from West-Flanders to Limburg - and I can guarantee you the first ones will NOT understand a word the second one is saying. And I just think that's beautiful ;).
❀ : which language(s) would you like to speak fluently? I gotta say Czech. I mean. My wife's Czech and my kids already understand it better than I do and just. Yeah. I really need to learn more Czech. But if it wasn't Czech... idk, I'm frustrated about the languages I knew but forgot (Swedish and -particularly- Portuguese), so it would be cool to have those back, but I'm also very fascinated with languages like Xhosa (which uses click consonants) and tonal languages like Thai and such - because it's so far removed from the type and structure of languages I'm familiar with. But there is absolutely zero reason for me to speak/learn those, so yanno. Compells me, though :).
