A place down out in the universe

I'm mike. I'm 20 and a university student. I love any type of music out there. I love to learn, especially about languages and cultures. Unfortunately I also love procrastinating. You'll find anything I like, caught my interest or made me laugh here :)

Do you ever eat popcorn out of the palm of your own hand with such ardent desperation that you feel like both a wild horse and the gentle schoolgirl feeding it treats to gain its affection

Anglish is honestly the funniest thing to me

basically it’s just English with all the non-germanic-based words taken out for the sake of “linguistic purity” (yeah I know)

A lot of words in English are Germanic-based but a lot of them aren’t. Anglish uses archaic language or created words to get around those non-germanic words. Some of them can be pretty weird.

For instance:

The word “Avocado” has Romance roots so that’s a no-go in Anglish. In Anglish you’d call it a “Butter Pear”.

The prefix “inter” is based on Latin and Old French so you’d have to call the “Internet” the “world wide web” or the “twixtnet” instead.

The word “Physics” is Greek-rooted so you’d have to call it “Worldken” instead.

Obviously Anglish is a ridiculous idea and I don’t think anyone really treats it seriously. It’s kind of interesting to have word etymology drawn to one’s attention like this, though.

Bonus stale meme: here are the lyrics for We Are Number One “translated” into Anglish.

There’s something about Studio Ghibli’s Water physics that I love

While it is a liquid, it tends to behave more gelatinously

It’s so beautiful while almost being awkward *bloop*

Gravity? Surface tension? No? Well, just let me hug her!!

Not even seeming to make skin or cloth wet

It looks so satisfyingly bouncy

Tell me what you guys think and what’s your fav movie thing about Ghibli

[sigma-enigma]

I remember hearing/seeing a post where Ghibli’s water always -looks- like how water -feels-.

Like when you’re crying it just feels like

And when it’s raining it’s like

Like Ghibli has that perfect look of water where yeah, it’s not exactly -realistic- but they capture the perfect feeling.

[rooksandravens]

I love this and now I need to find a collection of gifs oh Ghibli hair. I love when it does the poof thing. None of this is realistic, but it is wonderfully emotive. Emotions usually feel more talk than physics anyways.

[pettyartist]

Ghibli movies tend to exude an almost dreamlike feeling or a feeling like nostalgia– like, the general mood of the films feel like summer in the country when the sun is shining and it’s quiet and there’s a breeze going, or the smell of fresh cookies from the oven or the way a freshly-laundered quilt feels when it’s wrapped around you by someone you love.

They just FEEL good.  Even the sad movies still give off that same feeling.  It’s almost tangible, but still feels like a fond memory.

It’s really hard to describe kfjhsfjk.

studio ghibli has a weird way of having both very little and alot of movement at the same time

[teeny-weenie-ducklings]

I’m not alone. Dude every movie does this to me.
