Those are some dedicated furries.

Oh, is was taking about English. Sorry it wasn’t clear. German is quite hard grammatically, with its dative case and inconsistent use of genders for non gendered things. It’s got some phonemes that are quite hard for adult learners too. The one thing it’s got going for a lingua franca is the consistent pronunciation rules. Don’t know anything about Sanskrit. Sounds interesting.

I wouldn’t say better, just easier to learn the basics. For instance, it is a mostly incomplete language from a conjugation standpoint. While I love the communication power romance languages have in verbal conjugation, they do present an obstacle for learning. Plural is also quite easy in English, as are basic adverbs. If only English had consistent pronunciation rules like German, it would be a near prefect lingua franca.

Ad hominem.

Not angry at all, thank you for the concern. And yeah, English is terrible, the absolute divorce between writing and speaking being the most salient point for me. But it’s the lingua franca, you can’t not speak it if you want to interact in the world stage. But, for all its faults, I’m glad it replaced French in this role.

It’s fucking far off. I can’t stress how bonkers your number naming is. I speak two romance languages and two Germanic ones, and I’ll not try French because this and many other bullshittery.

I dub thee Steve!

That’s exactly what hyperbole is.

Mine are pristine, I use them all the time and they are equal or better than the road. The idiots around me walk on the fucking road like chickens. Fuck em.

Let me introduce you to a figure of speech called hyperbole.

Brave plays them in the background without ads. I don’t ever cast youtube, no philosophical reason, I just don’t feel the need to. I use Amazon music for music, just because I’m too lazy to move services. I refuse to contribute to Google in any way, shape, or form. But I understand your choice, and I know how hypocritical this sounds after I just said I have Amazon music. But the world is highly imperfect and so am I.

One of the ways worm infestations can kill, especially kids, is when it gets so bad they start travelling up the esophagus and can block the upper air ways. In these extreme cases, in the absence of another medication at hand, a spoonful of kerosene can save a life. My grandma saved a neighbor’s 6 year old kid doing just that. The girl was later taken to the hospital and made a full recovery, but would have asphyxiated otherwise.

The kerosene one works.

Display Port over USB C is a thing now. It’s how laptop docks work these days. In one cable you have power, video, and USB.

Nice, thanks!

What’s the other crop of the triad?
