AAVE/Ebonics is a proper dialect with history. It has rules. It doesn’t make you unintelligent, and it wasn’t invented by the Internet.

I’m so tired of all the miseducation and misappropriation around it.

Some semantics work while I watch some stardew valley streams 🌸

The new quarter hasn’t started yet, but I wanted to get a head start the week before it starts for my Greek Mythology class. So far the class is very interesting, and I can’t wait for my first lecture!

Also, for those who celebrate have a merry Christmas!

04.26.21 | Hello, everyone! I hope the past couple of weeks have been treating you all well. A number of things happened to me. There was a power interruption in my area so I had to go to a cafe in order to attend my classes & take two tests. It was the strangest experience & something I never thought would happen (but given the state of the world, it’s not even that unusual?). Also, due to the absence of my group’s actual leader for our presentation, I ended up with the position by default. Which is always great. 

I have some important exams coming up soon & I’ve just been reviewing (& panicking) for them. That could either mean more studying content from me, or complete silence for the next few weeks. If anyone’s on the same boat, good luck to you & we’ve got this!!

By the way, hello to so many new friends!! I really appreciate all of you who are following me! Gosh, I hope my posts are worth your time ♡

[archaic-stranger]

the translation & interpretation students

a love for words and how they communicate meaning

obsessing over the minute details of a word and its synonyms

wanting to transmit meaning and intent as accurately as possible

the wafer-thin pages of a dictionary

puzzling over how to interpret something that doesn’t have a direct translation

being fascinated by tiny details

debating connotations and implications of one word over another

a cup of coffee grown cold as you lose yourself in concentration

the ability to look at everything around you in deep detail and never grow tired of it

being able to understand more languages than you can speak

a commitment to interpreting meaning without bias

understanding the importance of accurate translations that fully convey meaning, both explicit and implied

owning copies of the same book in multiple languages

an appreciation for the power of words

thinking on your feet to interpret accurately on the spot

experimenting with new machine translation systems

debating the role of creativity in an interpreter’s job

the satisfaction of a translation that matches the original text as closely as possible

admiring the work of translators and interpreters throughout history

knowing the importance of accurate communication

comparing different translations of your favorite books, debating the choices made by the translator

100 Days of Productivity - Day 96

Got my November spread ready a while back in anticipation for exam season. Turns out maybe there was no point because I've been putting everything off and working on anything but exam prep.
