On Becoming Well Read

Why is it important to be well read or well informed?

We tend to gravitate towards people who we find interesting. A fear that most of us have is that we’re not interesting enough.

“What if I don’t make any friends because they think I’m boring?”

“What if I don’t know what to say at that date and he ghosts me?”

“I have no idea what this person is talking about, but I’ll pretend like I do.”

“God, I wish I had done some more research before coming here. I feel so dumb.”

In order to combat such feelings, we need to actually address them and work on them.

It’s not that you’re boring or plain. It’s just that you may not have expanded your horizon enough.

Here are some things that I do:

1. Read 3 academic articles a month (this month I’m reading on parenting, globalisation and urban riots). Annual review is a great resource. The articles I’m reading aren’t more than 30 pages long.

2. Read the news every single day. I have 13 different news apps that I use. You don’t need to use so many (I just like being informed in what’s happening in my country, the world, and certain specific nations). Start by reading just the headlines everyday.

3. My brain likes reading about fashion, lifestyle, exotic travel as well. I refer to CNA Luxury’s website for that.

4. If you don’t like reading, watch videos instead. YouTube is a vast resource. Look for TED videos, Cold fusion, Slidebean, Circle of Life, History Matters, Ted Ed, Absolute History.

Here are some topics I think are interesting / you can research on:

* your country’s history

* Basic international history and some of the most notable/ infamous events

* Classic literature

* Architecture basics

* Interior aesthetics

* Famous people and families in your country

* Prominent CEOs, politicians and personalities

* Start ups and industries that are becoming popular

* Small talk

* Jewellery - stones, metal types, settings

* Massages - best pressure points

* Real estate - structure deals, buying and selling homes

* Economics - rates and what they mean

* Philosophy basics and notable figures

* Alcohol basics - how is French wine different from Italian, why is champagne called champagne, what is the most popular drink in every country?

* Lesser known communities and tribes

Based on how well this article is being received, I'm thinking of creating a free newsletter, with content like this. Sign up here! Launch on 8th January, 2033.

Interesting Korean Word Of The Day: To Love Or Hate That Is The Question

💬 Linguistics Challenge 📚 - February

This challenge will teach you the basics of linguistics step-by-step over the course of 12 months.

This month, we’ll look at: morphology & word formation.

Each month you get a few exercises (depending on how complex the topic is), so you can take breaks in between days or use those days to revise and practice. I’ve put links to all the topics on which i made blog posts, but you’re very welcome to do your own research online.

This challenge is based on what I learned in the first semesters of my linguistic studies at uni, and it’s aimed at giving you a broad introduction and teaching you the most important concepts from several different fields of linguistics.

Throughout the month, you’ll get the chance to apply your new knowledge in some exercises and tasks. If you want, you can share your work via reblog with the tag #linguisticschallenge, i’d love to see your contributions :)

Also, feel free to follow me so you won’t miss next month’s challenge!

First off, inform yourself about the field of morphology and what it analyses

Find out what morphemes and allomorphs are, and what kinds of brackets are used for them (e.g. {…})

Task: Find a nice quote, poem, joke, etc. and try to analyse all of the morphemes.

Task: Take your analysed sentence or text from point 3 and try to find out, what the individual morphemes mean or signify (especially affixes like un-, re-, -ment, -tion, etc.)

Look at the word-final morpheme {-s}, its allomorphs and when they are used

Look at the word-final morpheme {-ed}, its allomorphs, and when they are used

Inform yourself about the field of word formation and what it analyses

Look at the word formation processes of derivation and conversion / zero-derivation and find some more example words

Look at the word formation process of compounding and find some more example words

Look at the word formation processes of clipping and blending and find some more example words

Look at the word formation process of back-formation and find some more example words

Look at the word formation process of initialisms and find some more example words

Look at the word formation process of word-manufacture / coinage and find some more example words word

Look at the word formation process of reduplication and find some more example words

Task: use one (or more) of the word formation processes and try to create a completely new word. Tell us about how you created the word and what it means

If you’re quick or want to learn more, you could check out my linguistics masterpost to see if i made any new posts on this topic after creating this challenge. You could also take a look at these book tips:

Next month, we’ll look at the field of syntax!

Being asexual is like you have to do that experiment they sometimes do with kids where there's a marhsmallow in front of you but you're not allowed to eat it until they say so and if you succeed you get another one, and you're told that eating the marshmallow early is evil and sinful and if you eat it you should be ashamed but then you're like hm I don't want the marshmallow at all and then they get mad because apparently you're supposed to be filled with an insatiable hunger for marshmallows otherwise there's something wrong with you
