@Gusfbritto@dilma_debochada@ErikakHilton quem falou em 4x3 no Brasil?? não estamos nesse nível, mas é passada a hora de mudar pra 5x2
boa parte do mundo adota 40h semanais, o Brasil que tem essa mania de exploração com 44h ou até 48h
@nephew_jonathan @oli_0331 @sawadalama w doesn't show up in Italian, so it would make sense… and there's a common shift from w to g in romance languages, the sounds are not that different
something you can look into is the other use for g in Italian, like in lasagna, the g is not pronounced, but changes the n → ñ
I think I'll give up on Duolingo… I can't keep the same language for a long time, I feel the need to switch between languages to not get bored and for other languages there are better resources out there. Goodbye, streak.
@kemsdreaming 8/10, 7/10 if we include that thing which is probably not even drinkable
Personally, I hate papaya, but the texture is really nice, so I get it. I like the diversity, but the lack of consistency irritates me a bit. It's something I'd generally eat, but would prefer something else
@GabyLVasques_ não? depende, a escrita tem que ser muito boa pra eu gostar da experiência de ler em si, mas eu gosto muito de *ter lido*, de carregar a experiência da leitura, e livros que te agregam mais geralmente são mais difíceis de serem lindos e dá um alívio terminar logo certas partes 😅
they just want to use Dutch because it's their language and they'd like to "impose it" somehow
I might just be reading too much into it and they just don't feel confident enough to write in a foreign language, who knows…
I often hear people say how the dutch will switch to English at the first opportunity, so much so that it makes practice harder.
On this app, though… on my post complaining about the time telling system, there are quite a few dutch people commenting and replying to others +
speak in English, but if speaking in another language hinders communication…
And it was not only on my post, I very often see the dutch around here comment in dutch regardless of the original post's language, which makes me wonder if these people actually don't speak English or+
@vuorille I found it quite a nice thing, the half hour! The ten to half is something else haha I'll just get used to it in time (I only use 24:00 where I live, so I'm not used to other methods)
