Re: Language Practice (Help your fluency)
今年は、本当に難しかったです。コロナのせいで、日本に帰れなかった。国境閉鎖なのだ。江戸時代みたい。でも彼氏はあそこに残したのだ。日本に結婚できない。大変だよーーーー

Translation challenge thread
Have a go at making this into your own language: You think it's funny to take screenshots of people's NFTs, huh? Property theft is a joke to you? I'll have you know that the blockchain doesn't lie. I own it. Even if you save it, it's my property. You are mad that you don't own the art that I own. De...

Re: Language Practice (Help your fluency)

Re: Language Practice (Help your fluency)
台湾にいたら、旧字体の方がいいんじゃない? if you're in taiwan, shouldn't you be using traditional chinese? 我在台湾一定要用繁体字, 可是正常用简体字。 Wǒ zài Táiwān yídìng yào yòng fántǐzì, kěshì zhèngcháng yòng jiǎntǐzì. Of course I have to use Traditional Chinese in Taiwan, but I usually use Simplified. でも旧字体の方が すごい かっこういい! But the trad...

Re: Semantics of archetypes
Is a sword a knife? Only if you ignore the functions of things. Neither of these things is just "a thing that cuts". What it cuts is important. (I'd also note that cultures that actually use edged weapons are likely to have several terms, creating a stool/chair situation. They'd likely be...

Re: Semantics of archetypes
Does a glass house have windows? If there are parts of it which open enough to allow air to enter but cannot be used as doors, I'd call those "windows". It's almost like that's the definition of the word or something. Simmer down, this is literally the topic of the thread. That things are...

Thanks! ~ I'll maintain for now that any errors were due to me being on an international flight without internet access lol

Re: Language Telephone
I suppose I should say thanks. But not to bring the tone of this thread down but my dad unexpectedly passed away on the afternoon when i was due to go to the concert - so i ended up ditching it. Normally i'd bow out of the game at this point but it turned out to be a useful distraction while i was o...
