Mmpphh

What language are you learning?😊

Mandarin Chinese (traditional) and Polish. I used Duolingo as a starting point and am now using Clozemaster and Anki cards for vocabulary.

A mark on your forehead identifies the god you must worship to stay alive, usually by joining its local church or temple. Your mark is unknown, meaning an old, forgotten god sponsored you. To survive, you must either find an old temple to worship at, or do the arduous task of building a new one

Fire on the Mountain

In Episode 9 of the original Transformers cartoon, the Cons get crafty and build a machine that doesn’t work but kinda does, Spike meets a girl that I think never gets a name, the Seekers are all treacherous bastards, Wheeljack is a huge asshole and several people get dramatically thrown off a temple.

This is a good point. I think it can also be applied to marine environments (it's not just the coral reefs that need saving)

something i've noticed. people seem to think the most nature-y nature is forests. so forests are always prioritized for conservation, and planting trees is synonymous with ecological activism. my state was largely prairies and wetlands before colonization. those ecosystems are important too. trees aren't the end-all be-all of environmentalism. plant native grasses. protect your wetlands.

Months: May is Maj

Name of the months. May is called maj in Polish.

While Polish has generally preserved the old slavonic names of months, names for March and May were taken from Latin. So May in Polish is simply maj.

The vegetation in maj is in its full blossom. Not only there are a lot of flowers, but there's an abundance of green. And here comes the words maić and its derivatives. This is rather literary language. Some people assume that the name of the month came from the word maić się, just like it happens with the other months (they take their names from the occurrences in nature or works that are done in this month). With May it is the other way around, the occurrences in nature took their names from the name of the month.

maić (verb) - to flower, to decorate with flowers and green branches (just like the nature is in May)

maić się (verb) - this is a reflexife verb, so it means something like "to decorate itself, to be in blossom without the help of any third party. You will find this kind of word in the description of nature and landscape. For example "Łąki się mają" - Meadows are in full blossom , "Wszystko się pięknie mai" - Everyting is growing and blossoming prettily.

umajony (adjective) - be decorated with flowers and green branches
