hii i hope things havent been too stressful for you <33 ily and you deserve good things so here are some silly little player doodles i made :D (also pls ignore the other ask i. totally didnt. forget sanfos tattoo. and didnt just realize until now;;)

OMG MORE MEMES! These are just what I needed, thank you! :) Idk how you do it, but you're renditions of these are perfect every time lol; the facial expressions, the linework and coloring, and the designs never miss the mark. I also love the inclusion of Wank with this one (though let's hope there isn't too much collateral damage 0.1 seconds after that photo is taken haha). I just love these. :D ❤️💖💗💕

Oh, and another note, I meant to post this a few days ago, but I had to finish up things at Uni, which meant working on that for a few nights. 😅 On the bright side, I am finally completely finished with it! I can do whatever I want now, so I'm very happy. Expect more posts after today, cause I have quite a lot I want to address. :)

Arabic Essential Grammar #5 - The Article

Hello everybody! It has been a while since I did one of these - I’m going to try to do this on a weekly basis again. This time, I am going off of  the book Modern Literary Arabic by David Cowan, but will add my own points and simplify where I can. Every Tuesday, I will aim to cover a topic that is essential to forming a strong basis in Arabic

I also need to work on my Arabic T.T so this is great for me too!

Today, we're talking about The Article - The Definite Article:

In English, we have "the" as the definite article and "a/an" as the indefinite articles. However, Arabic only has the definite article - ال. The indefinite is indicated by its absence.

Th article is prefixed to the word it defined, and the word loses its "n" ending ( Check Arabic Essential Grammar 1 to see why a noun might have different endings!).

e.g. اَلْكتَابُ كِتَابٌ

On the left, we have kitaabun and on the right we have al-kitaabu.

Here we can see the differnce between the indefinite ( left) and definite (right).

Pronunciation-wise, if a word comes before the "al", then it merges together with the previous consonant. e.g.

اَلْقَلَمُ و الكِتَابُ

is pronounced - al-Qalamu wal kitaabu.

The meaning is "the pen and the book".

The "al" is elided.

If there is a sun letter ( look these up and learn them!) following "al", then the "l" is skipped in favour of a shadda (doubled consonant) and the letter in front of it.

E.g.

اَلرّجُلُ

The Man - is pronounced arrajulu.

Hope that was helpful - try it out yourselves with a few different words - see if you can notice the pronunciation changes in a short video on Playaling!

See you next week!

Snowflake Book Review’s

Title: Definite(Soul Serenade #3)

Author: Kaylee Ryan

Pages:274

Snowflake Rating:❄❄❄❄(4/5)

Synopsis: Lauren captivated me with those big brown eyes of hers, and I knew my life would never be the same. What started out as friendship, has turned into so much more. I was shocked when Tristian asked for my number. There hasn't been a day since that I haven't heard from him. He may be the drummer, but that deep sexy voice, it turns me inside out. I assumed it would be one and done, but that's not how our story ends. I worry it's not what he wants. He tells me he's Definite.

A Ways Within

Standing here in this forest, the treetops ablaze, I’m taken back to that night four years ago. My mother’s face obscured by the smoke, tears and a smile barely making their way through. Her weak voice begging me to run and not to worry for her.

She tells me she loves me. That my father loved me. To keep my sister safe.

And while my legs carried me away from our home as it collapsed in the flames, they do nothing for me now. My body won’t make a move. I’m stuck here with only my thoughts, world ablaze all about me.

Until a voice breaks through the roaring inferno. A wall of ice encircles me and I fall to my knees. In but a moment things are peaceful once more. The fire is gone, and I see the worry in my savior’s eyes as he peers downward at my hands.

I can’t help it. I can’t control it. I know I’m a monster; a freak of nature...

But my eyes widen in surprise as Cori embraces me. 

He tells me everything will be okay. And like that, my mother’s face shows in my own. 

Tears and a smile.
