New study corner!✨I am finally back. Life has been extremely harsh these past couple of months and now it's getting even more harsh because of all the documents I need to do, but at least I finally moved in with my fiancé. Since we are both living in Germany now, studying German is a must. Hope y'all are having a great day! 🫶🏻🩷✨

The fact that the crusty stuff you get in your eyes when you wake up is called "sleep" in English bothers me so much.
In Portuguese it has its own independent word: remela.

4 Tips on presenting to an ESL audience (from an ESL librarian)
1. Speak slowly, in short sentences, and pronounce each word carefully.
Speaking louder isn’t nearly as helpful as speaking slowly unless you know the ESL person is also hard of hearing.
2. Whenever possible, use written words on a whiteboard or PowerPoint presentation
Written words are often the strongest reference for learners of a new language.
3. Avoid using idioms, as they rarely translate with the same meaning into other languages.
An ESL person will also be less likely to know the meaning of English-specific idioms.
4. Avoid phrasal verbs.
E.g. “look up” or “look out”
in which the meaning is idiomatic and has little or no resemblance with that of the principal verb; instead, use one-word equivalents such as “search,” “careful,” etc.

Quick pool!
I said I was thinking on focusing more in Korean because I think it's harder to learn and deserves more attention for that, but is anyone interested in any other language I should consider posting next??
Disclaimer: For the "other" option, I do not speak or study any other language other than the ones mentioned previously, but I can always try to find free resources for other languages if necessary.
PS: I FORGOT GERMAN!! I do speak german, I forgot to add it as an option 😅

The Art of Using the Em Dash
The em dash (—) is one of the most versatile and expressive punctuation marks in the English language. It’s the punctuation of choice when a comma feels too weak, a colon feels too formal, or parentheses feel too heavy. With its clean, bold line, the em dash seamlessly connects ideas, adding rhythm and emphasis to writing in a way that other marks simply cannot.
What makes the em dash so special is its flexibility. It can replace commas to create a pause that feels more intentional—drawing the reader’s attention to a particular phrase. For instance: “The sunset was breathtaking—golden, fiery, and endless.” Here, the em dash adds a sense of drama, pulling the reader into the description.
The em dash can also step in for a colon, introducing a list or explanation in a more conversational tone: “She brought everything she needed—books, snacks, and her favorite blanket.” Unlike a colon, which is more rigid and formal, the em dash feels fluid, making the sentence feel more natural.
Perhaps one of its most distinctive uses is for interruptions or sudden breaks in thought: “I was about to tell you—actually, never mind.” This function is perfect for dialogue or capturing the spontaneity of real-life conversations.
The em dash’s informality and adaptability can make writing feel more personal and dynamic, but it’s important not to overuse it. When every sentence is punctuated by em dashes, they lose their impact and can make the text feel disjointed. The key is balance—using the em dash strategically to enhance clarity and tone.
In the end, the em dash is more than just a punctuation mark—it’s a stylistic tool that brings personality to writing. When used thoughtfully, it can transform the flow of a sentence, leaving a lasting impression on the reader.

*adverbs cannot make the insult come true, but the person will believe it like it is. You can say, "you're a bitch" and they'll think they are one. You can say "You are a terrible person with no human values" to a bad person, and they'll start thinking that. Saying "you'll die alone" will make the person have an irrational fear of dying alone and isolation, etc.

❀ 𝟙𝟙𝕥𝕙 𝕞𝕒𝕣𝕔𝕙 𝟚𝟘𝟚𝟝 ❀
Hello y'all! I'm alive. I had to go back to my country of origin to get some documents done. Btw I turned 25 last month and I was blessed to be able to spend it with the person I love most. 🥹❤️ Alsooo... I have news. I will do a German exam (ÖSD) for the niveau A2 in the Austrian institute in my country. (and I'm completely calm, i'm totally not pooping my pants 😬) Please keep me in your prayers! 🙏🏻 I am not allowed to fail this exam, because I need the A2 certificate to be able to get a document. Oh Germany I love you, but your bureaucracy is on another level. 😵💫😅

I need to write a paper on [some artist's] influence on the English language, and argue why we should add it into the curriculum for English majors. Any suggestions?
We cannot choose any forms of literature, like poetry or drama for example, because those two are already in the curriculum (e.g. Shakespeare, Byron, Mary Shelley, etc.)
I am therefore required to pick a different art form (maybe film, photography, visual arts, painting, illustration, architecture, music, etc.) and choose a specific artist who is working/had worked in this art style and has significantly influenced the English language. I need to make a compelling argument for why we should add this artist into the English major's curriculum and I also need a topic that has enough cultural significance to the point of having had multiple academic articles written on it. I can't just rely on internet research like magazines or Wikipedia. I need actual academic articles or journals written about this topic, meaning that it has to be something that isn't too new.
I was going to pick the influence of British rock music on English phrasing, for example The Beatles, but someone had already beaten me to it. So I am completely out of any other ideas.
Are there any other artists that pop into your head who have greatly and significantly influenced the English language? I would appreciate any help because I feel extremely lost right now!
