Happy Hollow-ween! 👻

Didn’t get all my materials in time so this is incomplete, but any guesses on which #BleachTYBW character this is?

Hint: 🪡

[Melissa Jetzt @JetztMelissa]

Also, a purely speculative suggestion… the leader of the quincies, Yhwach. What if instead of pure German this is meant to be a mix of German and #Hebrew?

I don’t know Hebrew (so correct me!) but I did notice some “eh” characters in looking at romanized samples of Hebrew.

[Melissa Jetzt @JetztMelissa]

Uhhh guys can we talk about the “German” incantations in the first ep of #BLEACHTYBW?

What the fuck is happening here??? #langtwt #german

[Melissa Jetzt @JetztMelissa]

Here’s what it should say (if we translate the English):

"Meer zu Wolken, Wolken zu Regen, Regen zu Nebel. Das mit Form zu dem was unsichtbar ist. Nach unserem Jubel wird der Kelch umgedreht."

I don’t understand why they can’t just pay a translator tbh.

I made a new Twitter just for my tech stuff @melissa_xr if you wanna check it out. 👩🏻‍💻

The last few months for me have been pretty inconsistent, especially bc I've been traveling for work. 😅

My goal with this server is to stay laser-focused and get to know new people so I can reach my goals even when life gets in the way! 💪🏻

@peachpattern Same with my husband, who learned German🇩🇪 through immersion as a child. 😂

@Luna_donut Have you tried picking her up differently? Watch the full “squish that cat” video, the guy will explain it. But you’re not supporting her bottom half so she doesn’t feel secure, just dangling

[Melissa Jetzt @JetztMelissa]

@jiyeonushka 😔

[Melissa Jetzt @JetztMelissa]

@mattnotbellamy I usually prefer the other way around but I think it could be useful if you want to casually pick up some words.

@PokemonGems Do you disappear into another dimension when you sit on it? Otherwise its not authentic

[Melissa Jetzt @JetztMelissa]

@monoglotanxiety I had to take a language in college and since I had already forgotten Spanish and didn’t want to be forced into a harder class, I took German! That particular choice, though, was because my bf (now husband) was fluent and I thought it would be fun to talk to him!

[Melissa Jetzt @JetztMelissa]

@ninainlanguages Oh yeah that’s definitely me “this little backward N is an I…” 😂

[Melissa Jetzt @JetztMelissa]

@elyssedavega I once had someone actually try to get congratulations from me, someone who genuinely married a foreigner for love, because they married someone to get them a green card. Like no, don’t act like our situation is the same.

[Melissa Jetzt @JetztMelissa]

@GoLexsie @tmilawson @wayoverthink @AMythicWitch Same. Regret wasting years on that as my first relationship. He stalked me years after that and eventually reverted to DARVO claiming I spied on him bc I saw him at an ice cream shop once. Except he was harassing me and my sister via email, social media, etc. I never responded.

[Melissa Jetzt @JetztMelissa]

@AMythicWitch Please could people stop berating this poor woman like she’s stupid. She’s clearly in a bad situation and men like this are extremely manipulative, especially to women who are caring and nurturing.

I’m glad she asked Reddit so she could get some feedback on this. Hope she’s well

[Melissa Jetzt @JetztMelissa]

@monoglotanxiety It’s totally fine to have no intentions to continue in a language you spent time on! If you think you’re done forever, then allow yourself to be done.

It’s always up to you! There may be a sense of grieving but that’s normal for anything you spent a lot of time with. 💖
