#learn your terms

[forktutwtt]

I’ve heard a lot of confusion surrounding this topic so I wanted to give a clear resource for these often misused terms ❤️💁‍♀️💝👏🍝💗

Multilingual - You speak more than one language

Bilingual - You speak two languages

Heterolingual - You speak the opposite language of the person you’re speaking to (English vs Irish, French vs French Canadian, Japanese vs Yugoslavian, ect)

Homolingual - You can only speak the language of the person you are speaking to, unable to speak unless spoken to

Panlingual - You speak all languages perceivable by any species in any time

Alingual - You do not speak languages and therefor would not know or identify with this word so this word therefor it is pointless

Lesbian - You’re a woman who likes women

Hope this helps :)

Preference is not being into something/not finding attraction. It is no longer preference when you decide to cut down/degrade/ make others feel less than for your "preference." It is now Disrespect.

Kindly see yourself out the door if you feel as she does.

Huge pet peeve of mine is when ppl equal cannibal [something] to manflesh eating like it says it right there on the title what do you think cannibal means? I mean i know what You thinj cannibal mean, and you're wrong! Like could it Also eat you? Sure maybe to probbably but you're thinking of the wrong term buddy!

“I hope Kpop fans who got into Jpop (not only in H!P) stop using their Kpop terms in commenting on Jpop videos. Japanese idol industry has its own terms. Please stop using stans or whatever those are. We have oshi, wota and more words that equal to Kpop's terms. Really. It bothers me already.”

Some people on tumblr need to realize that there are a lot more grunge bands than just Nirvana. Although they may be the best ( in some people's opinions), they aren't the only and the whole scene of 90's grunge shouldn't JUST be defined with Nirvana, despite the fact of whether or not they may be the most popular.  Don't run a "all grunge" blog if all you're going to have is pictures of Nirvana and hipster girls wearing pastel floral and upside down crosses. That's not grunge or "soft grunge", it's hipster.
