i finished the grammar book i was reading. now what do i do with my life
#look. i didn't think i was going to read this 250 page pdf cover to cover. but i did. and it DID take over my brain#what's sexier than an ambiguity in a construction for comparison of adjectives!#what's more delicious than discovering i probably misinterpreted a particular sentence particle#because all along it was actually a slightly different sentence particle that sounds the same except for its tone#and i'm still very bad at recognizing tones with more than 50% confidence!#*#i'm not kidding when i tell you i feel like i just finished a really engaging immersive novel#easily the goofiest response i've ever had to what's just a long summary of grammar rules and examples. even for me this is new

Nothing you say will change the undeniable fact that Israel has killed more than 1% of the civilian population of Gaza through indiscriminate bombing since the start of this war
this is why Hamas only reports total people killed, and doesn't separate out civilians and combatants. because it knows that you'll assume they were all civilians, despite zero reason to assume that. nobody else does it that way. every single country on earth reports civilians and combatants separately, because killing civilians is a war crime.
Part of the reason that this is really good propaganda is that if someone responds by clarifying that it was only ____ civilians, they will sound like they're minimizing, which will lead to immediately dismissing their point.
Hamas is honestly masterful at propaganda.
Which sucks.
Anyway, if you want Undeniable Facts or at least Numbers: there are 2.3M people in Gaza, of which 30,000-40,000 are Hamas military. An unknown number are Hamas leaders, cybersecurity, military academy staff, etc. None of that really makes a dent in a number like 2,300,000, though. As of the beginning of December, more than 5,000 of the 15k+ it had then killed were Hamas members, for a civilian:combatant casualty ratio of almost 2:1.
Meaning that it had killed almost 10,000 civilians. Which also sucks.
For the curious, here are the ratios of civilian:combatant deaths you get with the numbers here for various wars:
Mexican Revolution 1:1
WWI close to 1:1
WWII between 3:2 and 2:1
Korean War about 2:1
Vietnam War 2:1 at highest estimate, 1:1 at lowest
Russia-Afghanistan War between 5.6:1 and 20:1
Israel-Lebanon War 6:1
Both Chechen Wars 7.6:1
NATO in Yugoslavia most likely 4:1
Afghanistan War 0.4:1 (or if you treat the civilians as the basis for comparison, it's 1:2.5)
Iraq War 1:2 thru 2015, then 4.5:1
U.S. Drone attacks in Pakistan 1:5
Second Intifada between 1:1 and 2:1, with 59% of Palestinian and 69% of Israeli deaths being civilians
2008 Gaza War 3:2
2014 Gaza War between 1:1 and 3:1
Ukraine: 1:6 as of end of 2022 - surprisingly, this is the lowest ratio of any of the wars I've looked at
Israel-Hamas war as of beginning of December: 2:1. (15600 total, more than 5000 combatants.)
As of Dec 19, Israel has killed 19,667 people in Gaza. Let's see if we can get an actual number for how many of those are civilians.
I can't find an up-to-date number for combatants. It was 5,000+ on the 6th, and 7,000+ by the 10th,
It's been primarily fighting in Hamas strongholds that aren't SUPPOSED to have any civilians in them. Given that it killed three hostages, that's obviously not guaranteed. But that's why the number went up so fast.
As of the 19th, Israel has killed 4,000 people in about two weeks. At least half of those are combatants. But it's also wildly unlikely that it's only killed civilians since the 10th. Guessing that half of those deaths were combatants seems reasonable; it should be more, based on all the info we have.
That means that Israel may have killed 11,667 civilians, of maybe 2.27M civilians in Gaza. And killed 8,000 Hamas members, of maybe 30,000. (700 have also surrendered, last I checked.)
To be fair, separating out the combatant deaths doesn't do a lot to change what percent of civilians have been killed, because 2.3M is such a big number.
It's 0.6% with them, 0.5% without them. (Not 1%, fortunately.)
But it's always worth noting that Hamas is a lying group of liars that lied about having raped civilians en masse, lied about having killed civilians en masse, lied about wanting to specifically fight Israel and not Jews in the rest of the world, and is even happier to mislead people than it is to lie outright.
By contrast, it's about 30% of Hamas, between Israel killing its members being killed, and them surrendering.
I don't particularly like the number of terrorists killed either, tbh. Despite how enthusiastically some people misinterpreted what I said, I don't like it when anybody gets killed.
#it really bothers me that people minimize the absolute goddamn horrors of every genocide by calling this a genocide#genocide is not an adjective you use to show that you're REALLY REALLY EXTRA against the killing#you can be REALLY REALLY EXTRA AGAINST WAR without minimizing the genocidal rapes and the mass mutilation and all the rest#I have driven past rivers that were filled with blood during the California Genocide ffs#this is not about anon#anon didn't say anything about genocide#it's just making me think about how many groups had 60%-90% of their people wiped out in the most brutal ways possible#the kind of stuff that resembles what Hamas did but not what is happening to Hamas#i am going to stop thinking about examples of what Hamas did and not list them here in the tags#bc it is bad for everyone's mental health#mine included#this does not mean i will not post about it one of these days tho#wall of words

#😵💫😵💫😵💫#pale ponytailed lila#but you see in that example that she herself is the rubric#or the rubric is 'adjectives describing lila' in which case the 'notable lack of elaboration' / those two items being the sum list becomes#so eerie and pitiful#and each item having 'no relation' is equally eerie: it doesn't add up to anything - it conveys nothing essential (or things that are#essential only by some strange specification/highlights the impossibility of describing her more fundamental traits) - and it doesn't form#any kind of portrait#ending with 'irretrievable' in 'pale pregnant beloved irretrievable' is accurate. or at least - the list itself can't retrieve her#it doesn't conjure her up#Benjamin Sammons#the catalogue#you don't know my attributes

learning about Japanese grammar has weirdly helped me understand parts of English grammar. for example: anything can be an adjective if you're not a coward
#; shenanigans#langblr#japanese langblr#learning japanese#“hat-wearing” is an adjective for example#which like. duh. but idt i ever thought of it as one#hours later edit: and smth like “who-sang”#as in “the person who sang”#“who sang” is an adjective describing the person if you're not a COWARD

fascinated to see that this dico calls no especial attention to the fact that you're not supposed to make elision with the words onze or onzième (i.e., you say le onzième rather than l'onzième). i was curious to see if they would take the same route as my english-french dico, which puts an asterisk before the pronunciation like it does with words that begin with an aspirated h, but the only thing this one does is include the example sentence Il est le onzième.
#it includes example sentences all the time and it's not always immediately apparent to me what any given example sentence#is doing. in this case because i was already looking for it (and because i read the sentence aloud) i saw the 'le' (instead of l')#but i'm not positive i would have noticed otherwise#in fact this is maybe less clear than just including the example phrase 'le onzième' would be (instead of the whole sentence)#because it's an abridged dictionary so much of the context comes from how much information is included#like for example the pronunciation notes. to save space this dico only tells you the pronunciation of words that are exceptions#and even then only tells you the pronunciation for the part of the word that is pronounced differently than one would expect#rather than for the whole word#this is very helpful to me because a) when i see a pronunciation next to a word i always notice it because it's rare#and b) it tells me exactly in what way the word is pronounced weirdly#(which also often allows me to infer how that spelling would be pronounced if it weren't an exception)#lecture du dico#lexicography#french#my posts#so anyway including the whole sentence 'il est le onzième' is a bit misleading because you think oh it's just an example sentence#which could be in there for who knows what reason. the fewer units of information you have (words in this instance)#the less you have to guess at what they're meant to convey to you. because you can focus right in on the relevant part#(which in this case is the le instead of l') with fewer red herrings#when i first saw this example sentence i thought it was just showing how the adjective onzième can be used as a noun#which is a not-infrequent purpose of example sentences in this dico#but because i was scrutinizing the entry for clues as to the lack of elision i noticed it#it's fascinating because i didn't realize this about onze until a couple years ago#and when i asked my french teacher (who is french) about it she had no clue what i was talking about#even though she personally never made elision with these words either#she didn't realize it was an exception or anything that would have to be told to L2 learners. it was completely natural to her#trying to remember now if she had the same reaction with huit cuz i knew i brought that up too#cuz to me they're functionally the same...you don't make elision or liaison with either of them#but everybody talks about aspirated hs and i don't even know if there's a word for what's going on with onze#or any other words in that same category of start-with-vowel-but-no-elision-or-liaison (there must be? but i can't think of any)

I just started learning Thai so I’m interested. What is the difference between jing and jingjing? On your tags about favorite Thai words
oh! so in Thai, repeating an adjective turns it into an adverb.
in this case, jing is an adjective that means true or real or honest, and jingjing is an adverb that means really, trully, honestly. they're just my favourite Thai words because I like the way they sound lol.
my other favourite is ning, which doesn't have a perfect English translation but that you might recognise from My Engineer. it means cool as in (a person who is) cold, distant, or aloof, or alternatively calm and self-controlled. it's often used sarcastically when describing other people. ningning is an adverb that means something like carefully or calmly - you hear people saying "ningning!" to tell someone to calm down or take more care. kind of like "chill out!" in English lol. I like these because their English translations are so interesting! and because of RamKing and ai'Ning, obviously.
#oooh thank u i love talking about language!#also just to cover all bases -#an adjective is a descriptive word that describes nouns (nouns are things - including people places and concepts)#and an adverb describes verbs (which are 'doing words' that show the action in a sentence)#for example. 'she is careful'. careful is an adjective describing the 'she' in this sentence.#'she walked carefully'. carefully is an adverb describing how the action of walking took place.#adverbs in english usually end in -ly so that helps with identifying them#sorry if this is incredibly obvious#linguistics is one of those things that's been a special interest for so long that i genuinely have no baseline for what is common knowledg#darcey.txt#ask#darcey.lang#linguistics posting

weird but i guess ultimately predictable that people keep using the sexy fallout ghoul as evidence that people (mainly women) will lust after men "regardless of appearance" when actually mainly what that proves is that looking hot is so much more complex than society (advertising) would lead you to believe
i realise i'm not the best benchmark of what people find attractive (because i'm turned on by aerial photos of highways) but i think the ghoul is reasonably attractive and i literally have nothing to judge him on other than appearance
It's not that women automatically see past the physical, it's just that you don't necessarily need to have a nose to be physically attractive
#fallout#you have no idea how hard it was for me to not get discoursey about this#(it wasn't that hard)#because BOY do i have some opinions about this#but i cleaved to my original purpose and WOW 'cleave' IS A FUN WORD HUH#it has two opposite meanings. and there's two adjective forms of 'cleave'#but both of them apply to the same meaning#'cleft' and 'cloven' both mean split#because 'cleft' is more closely associated with the noun ig?#there isn't an adjective for something that has been cleaved together#i can't be cloven to my ideals#unless i can?????????#anyway here are some other things i thought of using as examples of stuff im turned on by:#concrete. teeth. overpasses. veins and other bodily tubes. crustacean body horror that i'm doing my best to forget about.

I think a lot about rereading popular books that I chose to hate because I feel like now I will be able to understand what made them so popular. But also I didn't like them in the first place
#whenever I find ppl who have read lots of books like I did they are all the popular books of the time that I decided to be contrary about#and they are like “yeah that book was good” and i'm just like “mhm yeah”#I think I am right about more recent ones but I feel like I'm wrong about ones that are practically classics now#example of the former: klara and the sun#example of the latter: donna tartt 💀 fully prepared to be wrong about that#im not as sure about some of those popular thicc books in recent years like the priory of the orange tree...reading that book was a chore#im willing to believe its actually a good book but I also read that when my standards for books were highly pedantic#because I didnt know how to think more deeply about what I was reading or appreciate the craft#that was me when I read tsh and the goldfinch too#sorry to whoever is reading my tags and feeling offended#loquacious#<-these tags are really that adjective

girl help i have literally been studying english for years and i've just learned the actual rules of compound adjective hyphenation how the fuck did i survive this long
#this all started with me checking the spelling for ramrod-straight and then realising i have no idea if i should hyphenate it or not#and i tried to think of other compound adjectives but i could not conceptualise a rule out of those examples so i had to look it up#and apparently because english makes no fucking sense it is entirely dependent on cotext#(i am exaggerating it actually was pretty clear. this is definitely one of the more rational rules of english grammar)

language knowledge in english is both very interesting and also really really stupid, i've found
#'stupid' no im just petty about it being weird. but on the other hand its stupid#adverbs of degree are very confusing with their descriptions for one. what do you mean they Modify instead of describe adjectives#or other adverbs.#how does really modify pretty for example. simply it is really pretty#clearly i am right. (<-he is not)#🌙rambling

hyperfocus on language and using the “correct” phrasing/words is not great and can often be harmful to activist causes yeah yeah but like. i don’t love when that swings to the other direction of like, mocking people for being uncomfortable with certain terms
#this isn’t really about like. slur discourse or the word queer btw#although i think it does relate to my general feelings about it#but this is about...#im thinking about the post i just saw about the AP styleguide saying not to use ‘the [adjective]’ to describe people#and like sure it’s funny that they used ‘the French’ as an example#but#language. can in fact. be dehumanizing. and that shouldn’t be Thee activist priority but it’s not a bad thing to want to avoid#especially in the context of a style guide for writing. like yes in fact That is the place where that conversation makes More sense#ALSO. the post wasn’t saying to use person first language. idk what else AP says about that but that wasn’t that post#it wasn’t talking about ‘disabled people’ vs ‘people with disabilities’ it was talking about not saying ‘the disabled’#which maybe you don’t care about either! and that’s fine obviously but it’s just. a different issue. just to clarify#also also i think the inclusion of ‘the French’ was intentional to emphasize that this isn’t just in relation to marginalization but rather#a standard for any group of people#but that’s just my read im getting off topic

*comes crawling out of the underbrush scratched and bleeding*
. . . I win at English, which is a normal and productive thing to want to do, and not at all pointless except for extremely specific uses
*crawls back into the forest of emotional isolation and peculiar linguistic hyperfixations that I rely on for comfort and almost certainly caused this result*
I got the Top 4.47% on this English Vocabulary test
#tests on the internet are pointless#i could have sworn a few of these were not perfect synonyms/antonym pairs either#like some were in adjective form and some were more gerundy-feeling to me#although i cant remember examples#0.01%
