Curse Of The Seafaring Life - Our Flag Means Death icons
Dec. 29th, 2025 08:29 pmSoooooooooooooooo, people at /r/EnglishLearning will at least once a week
Dec. 28th, 2025 03:47 amask a detailed question about phonology, such as "Do you really pronounce 'tr' as 'chr'?" (Yes, yes we do. We all do. It's almost impossible not to due to the physiology of those phonemes.)
And this will generate a burst of absolutely, frustratingly useless nonsense, because people just do not know how they talk. They don't know how they talk, they can't analyze their phonetics on the fly, and they are staggeringly unaware of these facts.
I keep telling these people to go to /r/linguistics instead, but thus far, nobody has taken my advice. Which is a pity, because I do give excellent advice, especially in this case.
But seriously - nobody knows how they talk. It's like trying to explain the biomechanics of walking. Sure, you've been doing it since you were a toddler (probably?), but that doesn't mean you have any understanding at all of what the hell you're doing as you propel yourself from place to place. I bet you can't even explain how you adjust for your varying center of balance!

Buffy: I never should have let them take Riley. I need to be with him.
Willow: I'm sure he's ok.
Buffy: There's no way he can be. Everything he's ever believed in has been taken away. He's alone. He has nothing to hold on to.

Dec. 29th, 2025 07:31 pmAgh, I just found the hollanov discord server.
And wrote my first 1800 words of HR fanfic.
Um... anyone up to alpha read it to give me feedback about whether it's worth continuing?
