Nothing like protesting against the privatisation of education alongside you own teachers.
i love it actually when nonnative speakers make mistakes that reveal how their native languages work.
lots of koreans online say they "eat" drinks which would assume they only have one word which covers the concept of consumption.
arabic immigrants in sweden (my mother included) have a hard time differentiating between "i think/i believe/my opinion is" which suggests that in arabic these different modalities of speaker agency is treated as one or at least interchangeable.
swedish speakers in english will use should/shall/have to/must with much higher nuance precision than native english speakers, to the point where they sound well awkward, because the distinction between these commands in swedish is much clearer than in english. i make mistakes between is/am/are and has/have constantly because swedish only has one pronoun covering all grammatical persons.
i've heard speakers of languages without gendered pronouns (finnish, the chinese dialects, and a tonne more) make he/she mistakes because it's hard(!!) to learn two or more gendered pronouns and when to use them correctly.
how neat is that?! it add a charm to international english usage in particular and make our appreciation of both our native languages and our learnt ones stronger...!!
watching pole vault instead of revising for my upcoming philosophy test like the heathen i am
I literally spent 20min in a park at night, running to find a human clit just for some stupid shit for my uni class.
More than one school boy has their Queer Awakening to this photo, guys…
It was the All-School Tournament and he took first prize.
Hello,
I'm midas, but you can call me... god (just kidding)
I've been on tumblr for quite a while now but I wasn't really active. And since a new school year is about to begin, I decided to give it a shot, and try to actually post stuffs on here.
I will post mostly about fandom (Mostly Dead Boy Detectives and PJO, I think), movies, books, music and being a student (I study humanities).
So if you want to be moots with me, I am... right here :)))
PS : I'm french.
my english lit teacher made us listen to david bowie's songs during a class to teach us vocabulary.
he is an icon.
i started watching dirk gently on netflix. it is the weirdest serie ever (in a good way).
Sometimes i realize i'm french. Like actually french.
God I must be so attractive for the rest of the world.
