Yo, I'm Hal. I'm learning many languages, don't expect it to make 100% sense but dammit I'm trying [RU, FR_CA, CZ, JP, ZH_CN]. Gumshoe best boy. Beefy dudes enjoyer and cheap beer enthusiast. If you can't accept that there's a difference between gay men and fags, then save yourself the trouble.
I try not to block or mute people, but if you do it's because you just annoyed me.

@AnonymousBosch Zombie movies are just politically correct race riots.
@LukeAlmighty @Godcast I learned a /lot/ of slurs from the internet.
@matana the first one when I was in geography class I wasn't aware that it was French, so I just loudly pronounced it as "nigger"
The teacher couldn't stop laughing.
@birbs@neckbeard.xyz always glad when these bots have men

what my girlfriend thought dating a software engineer would be like: "honey, I got an AI robot maid to do all our cooking for us"
what dating a software engineer is actually like: "if that microwave connects to the internet we're heating all our food with a blowtorch from now on"
@LukeAlmighty @furgar one of the few content tags I support
@Wyatt well, that was certainly a sentence with words in it.
@nosleep@neckbeard.xyz @matana It is, also I've noticed for a lot of geminated prefixes they're truncated to just one letter. Russians are getting lazier with their language and I can't be more thankful for that.
@nosleep@neckbeard.xyz @matana You also have slack pronunciation which is an easy trap for non-natives to fall into. (сейчас -> щас.) Most languages have this but in Russian, it complicates with fucking *everything* and to make it worse with slack pronunciation some conjugations sound *exactly the same* and if you don't know what you're doing it sounds odd.
@matana At least from my perspective as a language nerd and non-native speaker I'd imagine this has partially to do with the high/low style merger (incomplete).
@matana It's a continual hell for me that ë is basically never marked in colloquial typing. You either have to know or hope it doesn't change the word (@nosleep@neckbeard.xyz
@matana at least as someone who has studied multiple foreign language the second one resembles a more disjunctive/exclusive tone. "I (and nobody else here) am Vasya." @nosleep@neckbeard.xyz
@Bunn0241 I'm glad to be of use to *someone* today!
@nosleep@neckbeard.xyz into the bookmarks it goes! Along with various comments on VK pages.
I still do not understand Russian meme culture, but somehow it's that much funnier because I do not.
@nosleep@neckbeard.xyz oh yeah because it's the topic by default and it's grammatically singular.
@nosleep@neckbeard.xyz it's called an "em dash" and I've noticed it's used because you *could* but есть in there but 99,9% of Russians just ... do not.
eg.
«Москва - это столица России»
или «Москва есть столица России»
are *technically* valid but the first one makes you sound like you do not know anything about how Russia works and the second you sound fucking retarded.
It's a joke among those learning Russian that «—» just marks the present tense of быть
Apparently Russian uses «...» which is stupid and French but at least it looks less retarded.
