Oh, oh, this reminds me of the only known bilingual palindrome:
Anger? ‘Tis safe never. Bar it! Use love.
Spell that backward and you get:
Evoles ut ira breve nefas sit; regna!
Which is Latin for:
Rise up, in order that your anger may be but a brief madness; control it!

Whenever I see stuff like this I wonder how people even come up with it.
i’m so glad you people are out there being clever so i don’t have to be
does anyone else ever seen a keysmash and be like. hm no. that is not acceptable. that’s not a correct keysmash.
like:
agkhfsklhjslkfhjf = fine
shkjkljlkj = also fine
ieuyiowuyitou = what the fuck is this
Well now I want there to be a study. Seems like we prefer the home row in our keysmashes.
you know what? accents are actually lovely. like you can learn all the languages in the world and you still have a part of your own with you. that’s cute
why yes i do enjoy reciting the dictionary
every noun again
I just love how in English you say “great minds think alike”, which is a completely positive thing since you’re kinda praising yourself, but in German you go like “zwei Dumme, ein Gedanke” = “two fools, one thought”
German is beautiful, isn’t it
“The schwa is the sound you make when someone punches you in the stomach. Like [ə]. [ə]. There’s no time for [i], [o], [u]. Maybe [a], but that’d imply that you’re enjoying it.”

i love it when italians argue about italian. like we don’t even know how our language really works we just roll with it
Italian is 107 different provincial languages stuck together with spit and half a prayer
My bf lives in another region and we are constantly arguing about regional variations of words and we both live in the fucking north of Italy
one time i saw a map of italy but instead of cities and roads etc it was just covered w different ways you can say the word vagina. it was covered
oh I can think of at least seven ways to say the word vagina right off the top of my head rn. I can’t imagine what I could do if I tried harder

this is the Italian Vagina Map, reblog to… I’m not sure actually. Can’t hurt though.
college gothic
someone in your class mentions communism. they speak about it at length. you are in biology class.
you text your mother. she does not respond for 3 days. you text her again and then realize that it has only been 2 hours since your first text.
freshmen travel in packs. what are they afraid of.
your class is in room 153. the numbers start at 201. you cannot find the first floor.
someone is talking about communism. it is not the same person as last time. this is an english class.
your transcript says you have an A in philosophy 3310. you do not remember taking this class. what did you learn? what did you do?
you meet your elevator buddy. you do not speak. you never do. you ride in silence. one day, they are not there. you miss them.
your advisor refers you to the registrar. the registrar refers you to admissions. admissions refers you to both the registrar and your advisor. you have spoken to two people who do not exist and one who has been dead for ten years.
the boy who sits next to you wears the same clothes everyday. you think this is strange but when you mention it, he tells you that this is the first time he has worn this outfit. you realize that you have lived this day before.
you pass someone sleeping in the quad. he has always been there. stop looking at him.
someone answers, “communism.” it is not someone who has been previously mentioned. the question was, “what is an example of the art of ancient greece?”
you have a doppelganger on campus. you have never met them. they know all of your friends.
the seniors speak only to professors. their eyes are dead. they have given up the safety of the pack long ago.
the professor is talking about STD’s. your math class is very strange.
the powerpoint is in comic sans. you suspect that your economics professor is an extraterrestrial being after all.
“communism,” the man serving you lunch insists. wearily you nod. that’s what everyone says.
I’m extremely impressed and grateful. I live in Australia, I’m not really near any of the fires but I am somewhat surrounded by them. My great grandfather has been extremely lucky, the bushfires somehow just avoided his house in the blue mountains (the fires were stopped just across the road from him, thank god🙌) but my grandparents are still within an area nearby that may be soon affected because of the horrible drought.
So, I work at a bowling alley with a bar and we have implemented donation systems. Tonight (Friday night) I would have to say 95% of customers I served agreed to donate without hesitation to the bushfire crisis. One man (which I applaud) donated more than he spent on his one drink he ordered. We may be in a really bad situation here in Australia, but I’m glad to see that people realise the urgency and it gives me some hope in people. So many people are willing to donate their money, if not their time and other resources, and it’s so amazing.
This is also directed towards people overseas, and other countries that are donating, it is much appreciated, and even if some people cannot see how it helps - it really does.
Thank you.

Finally done setting up my Christmas tree!! Happy Holidays everyone! 🎁🎄
It’s that time of year y’all
We talk a lot about the mental benefits of being bilingual but we never mention how Welsh speakers' walking speed is a quarter faster, look.
Your conlang uses a single word for “give (someone or something) up”, kast. It also inflects for both subject and object, for example r- is 1st person subject, and i- is 2nd person object. There’s a special verb form, marked by -li that means “will never”.
With that in mind, rikastli, my loyal followers.
…you will burn in the fiery lakes of hell for this abomination, @conlangprompts.
this is like tolkein’s elvish atlantis pun but worse
My brain reads this but it cannot comprehend what it says
Really? In a linguistic joke, you really went there.

it’s getting close to Thanksgiving in the US so i wanted to pass around a link to the Wôpanâak Language Reclamation Project
Donate if you can, and even if you can’t, spend some time this November educating yourself about the history of the very-much-still-alive tribe that sat down with the pilgrims, the continued history of colonization in America, and about the tribe/s whose land you are occupying.
PRESERVING LANGUAGES LIKE THESE ARE SO INCREDIBLY IMPORTANT!!!!!!
From the about page:
“Recent sucesses include: The first American Indian language to reclaim a Language with no living speakers. There is a young child now being raised with Wampanoag as a first language. She is the first Native speaker of the language since the mid 19th century. ”
