challengers twitter pointed out something very cool: art's coach speaking to him in german!
the subs says "just invite her to serve." (which doesn't make any sense? and art doesn't even go to her after that lmao?) but he apparently actually says "wirf den ball etwas höher." which means "throw the ball a little higher.".
so art knows what patrick's house looks like which means he went there, he understands when his coach speaks to him in german and he's the only one who can pronounce "zweig", a german surname, the right way.
art learning german for patrick and spending holidays with him and his family is canon, i don't make the rules.
#challengers#art donaldson#patrick zweig#idk if a lot of people actually noticed that but i didn't so!!#showing intimacy in such subtle ways... challengers knows how to talk to me#artrick#patrickart#artpatrick#“ZWWWWEIG” lol#anyway putting little nice things like this for non english speakers only to understand is so cool#this with germans#pensiero stupendo for italians#“l'oeuf” track (beach scene) being pronounced “love” for the french#to me; a french person; “l'oeuf” sounds more like “laugh” but i don't see why it would be called like that#and “love” obviously fits the track and their discussion on the beach wayyyy more so#anyway i love it#idk if i prefer art learning german for patrick OR patrick teaching art some german#art wanting to learn SO patrick taught him is the best i think

anyway related to my "gullible" post i do think bonnie didn't really have a lot of friends / any good friends. i'm taking a watsonian approach to "some of the things bonnie does seem more like age 5-8 than 10-12", and a doylist approach to "everyone in this party grew up kinda lonely and feels disconnected from their peer group"
#thoughts#thoughts about bonnie#bambouche is so small no one woulda gotten away with being Mean to bonnie. and people were generally Nice anyway#they still had friends and got to do fun things with them#they just.. didn't get invited to play Every game#and the person they considered their best friend didn't consider bonnie to be even top three#yknow#lots of factors...#bonnie wasn't there as a baby/toddler - they arrived right at the age where kids start to remember and care who's already their friend#and bonnie and nille were 'the newcomers' and will remain as such for 10 or 20 years#and for the first couple years bonnie was behind in most social-emotional and academic skills due to their early years in an abusive house#and while they mostly caught up#'forming close bonds with peers' is just a rly hard thing to catch up on#bc if you're too far behind you just don't get the chance to practice and thus you fall even further behind#and then specifically some of the words bonnie needs help with i would expect them to already know / have no issue pronouncing#possible explanations could be that vaugardian is a second language or they've got some language or auditory processing issues#and either way - having trouble communicating can rly isolate you esp as a kid#also everyone in this party is autistic. to me#isat#bonnie#isat bonnie

Yeah there’s gonna be plenty of little details in s5 confirming byler, but there’s one thing in particular that I feel like would be too hilarious to pass up on…
#byler#stranger things#this is so funny to me tho#bc in the show#the first time we hear the Russian code#the subtitles making us familiar with it#starts us at silver cat feeds then says when blue meets yellow in the west#it then circles back to the beginning#the week is long then the silver cat feeds#and just cuts us off#while we dramatically follow Alexei up the stairs and towards the opening gate#it was set up in s3 with a dramatic cut off that was literally pronounced#until we finally got the whole thing later on#but the fact that they created scores with the titles for the first two lines#cutting us off once again at that part#makes you wonder if there was always a plan to ease the tension of that awkward cutoff#a trip to china sounds nice if you tread lightly#always felt like a sort of p.s. to me in the first part of the code#not that it literally is#but the first three lines flow together#like they all rely on each other to occur#the thing about the blue meets yellow in the west is that it’s so many things#its who when and where#the other the rely on it to make any sense#meaning leaving it out at all doesn’t really make any sense#when blue meets yellow in the west score would be insane actually

Jews in my phone, I have a confession: I hate xmas, but there is one (1) xmas song which I unironically love.
If we could all get together for the combined chanukah and xmas party and play this song specifically (and it has to be this one), I would die happy:
[Video Description: Anuc Atittawan's rendition of "The Christmas Song." He stares directly at the viewer and his very thick accent makes it difficult to understand parts of his song /End of Description]
#jumblr#meme#personal thoughts tag#guys i follow anuc on instagram and he seems like a genuinely sweet guy 😭😭😭#also this is NOT me making fun of him. i genuinely love his singing and i love that he still posts covers#it seems like he does a lot of anime stuff but guys 😭😭#genuinely a sweet guy so be nice to him#i was curious about where he's from (thai-born and based in italy apparently btw) and an article described him as#'[having an] innovative approach to pronouncing english words' 😭😭😭😭 bruh#oh no i'm now in the xmas spirit for the first time in my life..... oh no.... they're going to make me into a hallmark movie.........

i always read your username as he-hearse? Like, the car, right?
that is the meaning, yes. i, sadly, pronounce it the wrong way for reasons i shan't disclose . (reasons being i did not know how the word "hearse" is pronounced. so JDNDJDJ my own fault)
#by “wrong” i mean “he hears” way#but it's not like i will ever hear anyone pronounce it so i do not care#NOT ARSE THOUGH. SOBBING. BE NICE TO MIETTE OR ELSE

I don’t know, maybe it’s because I’m Irish and used to seeing all sorts of haha jokes about how weird our names are etc but yet I’m always surprised how surprised people are when I say that I find Welsh a pretty easy language to get the gist of. It makes sense! Welsh is something I know very little of but yet I find it easy enough to parse out the pronunciation of. I don’t always know what things mean but I’m not usually that far off in how they should be said.
#Welsh looks intimidating because like irish it uses letters in ways english doesnt#had a nice welsh couple today tell me I pronounced their address decently well which they were surprised at#draft saved on the 26th of April#welsh#cymraeg#my own post#I haven’t done any Welsh learning for a good while now so I’m a bit rusty on what sounds some of the letters like ll and dd make#but with a small bit of refreshing I can get it again. still can’t physically say some of the more…curly noises#because my tongue won’t cooperate but I can make a stab at it. had the same issue with a couple of romanian words with sounds english#doesn’t have. so I found them really hard to attempt

well that's just a lie
#ash plays bg3#bg3#gale#gale dekarios#personal#look. im used to the way he looks now. im cool with it. but she shouldnt be!#this was an interesting conversation tho. i know ive been leaning into him following his own ambitions but--#the dialogue options along those lines are becoming a lot more direct in a way that doesnt quite fit with how im playing#the gale that im playing isnt going around pronouncing that he's gonna take over the world (because that's not what he's actually planning)#so im not completely sure how to play this. i saved before so i can go through it a few times to work out what i want to say#(ftr i have no qualms at all about reloading in this game. i dont feel bad in the slightest. im playing this game for fun)#ultimately i dont think it matters too much what i say here unless i choose some really extreme options. which isnt my plan anyway#but it's important to me. im enjoying the roleplay aspect#it's also pretty funny that ive only had one long rest since the one where i fucked the emperor. i should be able to tell her that lmao#like hey yeah a lot's happened since we last spoke#but anyway if you say you're gonna take the crown yourself she says 'if it doesnt crush you i will' which is fun#gonna stick with the 'im not sure' option. and all my companions are saying such nice things to me about it :')#except wyll and jaheira. come on guys#and lae'zel but that's because she's been kidnapped so. rip. should probably make that a priority but i like progressing main quests LAST

genuinely one of the coolest things u can do if ur a native speaker of a language that has a "clean" "standard" variant and ur from a region w a heavy dialect is just not give a fuck. dialects and accents are so incredibly beautiful and enrich the language so much but they're also so incredibly quickly condemned as sounding "less educated" and other vile classist shit and i think everyone who refuses to conform and fall in line w that is fucking sexy
#sorry i watched a german language interview w timo meier and nico hischier today and while both of them did tone down#their accent a bit and switched to 'standard' german grammar nico still had a v thick accent and it was just sooo nice to hear lol#the interviewer was franconian and i cringed So Hard at the way he pronounced 'schwizerdütsch'#rip to everyone on the other side of the alamannic/austrobavarian dialect border ig lol#languages#cavetext

actually speaking of my name, dara, its like fun because it is just 2 very simple syllables so its in all kinds of languages all across the world as a name and as a word. and like. okay usually it means something super nice like super wise or like a gift or like a leader or awesome tree or awesome pearl or rich or fortunate or whatever, stuff like that. so lemme tell you how awesome it was when i found out in some dialects of japanese it means idiot <3
#also the reduplicated form daradara as like. wasting time <3 <3 that ones really funny because i speak kind of slowly when im thinking#such as in japanese class... i do feel like a cartoon character. like one of snow whites dwarves. im Slowly. im Idly.#its so funny i love it. its a great contrast compared to a buddy who was telling me about how in her language my name was like#literally meant wise person but had like connotations of respect and propheticism etc. such a vast two syllables this is#i dont actually know which version i was named. my parents just looked in like a baby naming book or on an early website#and just like picked one that sounded nice. i dont even think they looked at origin or meaning#im PROBABLY named like the hebrew version or maybe a unisex form of the irish version?#but i dont know if that matters when ur parents just like basically randomized ur name <3 i dont pronounce it very nicely tho#i and my family pronounce it like daaaaar (rhymes with car) Rah which is chill and i like it BUT#sometimes i meet someone who's first language is like arabic or serbian or something and they pronunce it so beautifully#with like a softer R and like dah-rah and its soooo nice. but my heavily ontarian daaaaaarrr-rah is fine too <3

Searching through old tomes, the smell of dust and lingering magic heavy in the air. The book it's seeking must be deeper in the library, past more abandoned guardians. Nothing its Carbuncle, Louis, can't handle though.
[Maltagliatti uses It/They pronouns]
#ffxiv Side squad#ffxiv Vi'qote#ffxiv Carbs#Louis pronounced like Louie#ffxiv Screenshots#Great Gubal Library (hard) my beloved#ffxiv screenies#ffxiv Proto-carbuncle#Messing with Brio a lil bit and I'm finding rather quickly I like it better than Ktisis so that's kinda funky#Love that I can undo per-actor that's really nice#And I took a nice Gif !#No shaders I die like a man.#If the resolution is crunchier than usual it's because I usually take my screenshots with g-shades screenshot keys#but I didn't have that installed... so it's greenshot. sorry?#edit: unless the gif won't load omfg

what’s your favorite muppet?
GONZO‼️‼️ I was cast as Gonzo in a second grade play, and I made his nose out of papier-mâché. He’s been my favorite ever since. I also love that he’s the weirdest one! (I’m guessing I got the role for a reason.)
Also, please look at how he dresses
#asks#the muppets#gonzo#gonzo the great#i definitely got typecasted as gonzo#i remember the nice popular girl who everyone liked was kermit#this petty blonde girl who was into fashion got miss piggy#i tried out for a few and they immediately eliminated me for miss piggy because i didn’t know how to pronounce ‘moi’#i was the proudly weird and creative kid who was also undiagnosed autistic#gonzo was the objectively correct casting#:)#also i’m sorry i took so long to answer this#excellent question!! thank you!!
