Ok as a straight white woman it’s time to take the phrase “hear me out” away from us. Just saw some boring ass straight girl on Instagram say “hear me out” about fucking GOJO SATORU. Girl. if he isn’t the most basic ass—fucking just say it’s your first time seeing hot yaoi bait and GO—if you saw the shit we say “hear me out” about on tumblr it would make you fucking hurl
you know what, this website’s hate of French people MIGHT be justified because yesterday my partner and I had the first fight we have had in over two years of dating and it was over a FUCKING croissant
Something which always pissed me off about ARMY but I had forgotten about is the dumbass "no you can't interpret art, wait to be told what it means and accept what you are told as the one and only meaning", like I'm sorry for thinking they're more intelligent and creative than you do, but when I see obvious symbolism I'm not gonna pretend they're too uncultured or unintelligent to have done that deliberately
Cela même lui avait été plus facile qu'à Roméo; Roméo était obligé d'escalader un mur, Marius n'eut qu'à forcer un peu un des barreaux de la grille décrépite qui vacillait dans son alvéole rouillé, à la manière des dents des vieilles gens. (IV, 8, I, p. 341)
me: that's weird, isn't gens masculine? guess i'll look it up on wordreference in case it's also a feminine noun meaning something different.
wordreference:
Inflections of 'gens' (nmpl): pl: gens
Toujours au pluriel quand gens = les hommes en général ou un nombre indéterminé de personnes. L'adjectif qui précède s'accorde souvent au féminin.
tired of pretending I don’t understand Fishman Island Sanji. I, too, would go absolutely buckwild over a bunch of sexy mermaids. I really would. It’s okay my petit croissant. I get it
Would you belive me if i told you that I studied french for 6+ years and nearly fully forgot the language. I won a fucking award as a kid becouse of french. I now only remember how to ask where you live.
Many such cases tbh but. 6+ years........ allons-y to revision i suppose
this is a niche one but instead of "they would not fuckin say that" it's "they would not fucking use American sign language".
ASL is not the only sign language. two british characters in your fanfiction would not be using ASL. England in fact has its own kind of sign language, BSL, that forms a sign family with many other sign languages around the world.
ASL isn't even the original member of its sign family, it comes from french sign language. do you know sign languages aren't related to spoken languages? that's an important one! it's not a direct 1:1 with people speaking English around the world. people in other countries don't learn ASL just in case they run into an usamerican or Canadian (who do often use it)
i know the entire world is the USA or whatever and sign languages do sometimes borrow from ASL for signs they don't have, but please be aware that there are other sign languages and families in the world that are not in fact ASL.
Why are the Romance languages so much more fun to yell at people with? By comparison Norwegian and English are so clunky Spanish just flows. Maybe I’ll change my mind when I get better at the other two (I phrased this awkwardly. I meant Spanish and Norwegian when I said “other two” because Spanish is my, admittedly not fluent anymore, Second language and Norwegian is my, also not fluent yet but I have more of an excuse with that one, language) but in my experience so far one definitely feels more bulky, if that makes any sense?
