swedish duolingo is even funnier in that respect. i recently got:
Varfƶr ligger det en norsk arkitekt i min sƤng?
translation: why is there a norwegian architect lying in my bed?

I'd rather be in outer space šø

I received this in the newsletter from Mount Vernon and I thought that I should let it get some love on tumblr
It's very possible that the only way to ensure you don't become a conservative old person is to keep checking whether you're wrong. Every time. Genuinely mull over the opposing viewpoint even and especially when it's uncomfortable. You absolutely cannot a) consider yourself safely incapable of terrible principles because you're a good person, or b) treat a your disgust reaction to something as a moral truth. You can't get comfortable. Tiring! But you'd rather be tired and choose the right path, you know?
NƄgon: Say something sexy in Swedish ;)

It's my 2 year anniversary on Tumblr š„³
(never mind the fact that i barely post anything original lol, i'm mainly just lurking here. but anniversaries are fun)
Something very annoying to me is the number of posts on this site where (presumably?) monolingual anglophone users take a word from a language that does not identically share english pronunciation, such as french or irish, and make fun of the way it's pronounced because it doesn't identically share english pronunciation
"Why is oiseau spelled like THAT it's so stupid" "why is bodhrĆ”nĀ pronounced so weird" because english is not the standard for everything š hope this helps
So much of what is ācringeā is just⦠earnest.
what if you made an honest expression of genuine human emotion and someone saw it!
"The trannies should be able to piss in whatever toilet they want and change their bodies however they want. Why is it my business if some chick has a dick or a guy has a pie? I'm not a trannie or a fag so I don't care, just give 'em the medicine they need."
"This is an LGBT safe space. Of COURSE I fully support individuals who identify as transgender and their right to self-determination! I just think that transitioning is a very serious choice and should be heavily regulated. And there could be a lot of harm in exposing cis children to such topics, so we should be really careful about when it is appropriate to mention trans issues or have too much trans visibility."
One of the above statements is Problematic and the other is slightly annoying. If we disagree on which is which then working together for a better future is going to get really fucking difficult.
Probably my favourite part of learning a language to an advanced level, is when native speakers talk to you completely freely, as they would normally. They donāt have to use simpler language, they donāt have to try to rephrase things so that you understand, or speak slower. They accept you as belonging to the community that can understand the language.
Thatās the feeling Iām going for in every new language I learn.Ā
Please reblog if you think that āthey/them/theirsā is a valid set of pronouns.

have you practised your Finnish today?

When a character doesnāt realize theyāve been, like, shot or whatever and they hand brushes against their side and comes away wet with blood, and theyāre just staring at it like wtf is this and then their knees just totally give out on them and they sink down, maybe gasping a little as the reality finally hits them. Thatās good stuff.
I see that, and raise you a character who knows theyāve been shot, but waits until the rest of their crew is out of sight to put their hand against the slowly spreading stain of blood on their shirt, then trying to steady their breathing so they can follow without letting on how injured they are.
Okay but like the character who doesnāt realize theyāve been hurt trying to see if everyone else is okay only to slowly realize that everyone is looking at them with mounting horror. Then they touch their side to find itās wet and oh no
all 3 of you are evil but i admire, respect, and fear you
technically i should be studying for a chemistry exam, but what if i went and wrote another chapter of that marliza fanfic i abandoned half a year ago instead š
are yāall safe or screwed
go to this random coordinates generator and say in the tags how you would fare if you were dropped where it generates without warning. iāll go first iād be dropped in the middle of the fucking south atlantic ocean and perish
>middle of fucking siberia
uh yeah no thanks
>russian side of the caucasus
well, time to try to flee to georgia without a passport I guess
>danggali wilderness protection area in australia
i mean, it sounds cool (and i haven't been dropped off over an ocean, so i wouldn't die immediately) but based off of the huge fucking spiders and whatnot i've seen on the internet so far i am convinced that i would NOT be able to handle the australian wildlife. would probably get way too close to something terrifying and poisonous out of sheer curiosity.
tl;dr: i'm fucked
