oh good news for those of us who only saw the english version of the french union call for testimony, or who don't speak french:
when in english they said quackity "half-heartedly" acknowledged things, in the french version the word they used was "demi-mot". having consulted a few dictionaries i THINK it's not a direct translation or at least not a wholly accurate one. from what i'm seeing, "reconnaître à demi-mot" roughly means "to admit indirectly". translation of "demi-mot" directly seems to be something like "implicitly" or "without spelling things out".
i've linked the sources where i found the translations for any english speakers who want to double check and please, any native french speaker who disagrees PLEASE tell me if you have a different translation than was provided, or have insight on the connotation!!
"half-heartedly" implies a lack of personal or emotional investment which i think got a lot of us on the defensive (certainly raised my eyebrow) but i think that's just an imperfect translation. from what i'm seeing, 'demi-mot' doesn't have those same connotations.
(incidentally, putting 'reconnaître à demi-mot' into google translate does produce 'to acknowledge half-heartedly'; no shade, to be clear, considering they're a FRENCH union i wouldn't blame them if they had to use online translation tools, and 'demi-mot' is hard to translate, at least for me)
both english and french versions of the call are linked in this post
ADDITION FROM THE REPLIES:
@selemina : "French speaker here, you are very right! In this context, it could mean "he recognized, without saying so explicitly [...]". Or it is a notion of not enough being said on a subject. There is a layer of secrecy to something said 'à demi-mot', which often implies dishonesty. Applied to this context, I think the union is suspicious of Quackity's latest declaration (probably from seeing many dishonest people in charge before) but still reporting the facts." (THANK YOU!!)
#qsmp#qsmp discourse#merci à mon prof; j'ai fait beaucoup de traduction#je suis prête à trouver des mots difficiles >:)#je ne peux pas parler français mais je peux traduire des mots individuels#sorry francophones lol#sept ans mais je ne sais rien mdr#i thought about asking for correction by french speakers in french but then the phrasing got too complicated and i chickened out#i would be SO EMBARRASSED IF I FUCKED UP#i know native french exist on this website now ;w; ça me fait peur#this post is a mess i'm so nervous to post this lmfao

Me: I joke about writing the same McCoy centric story over and over again in different ways
Me: and like. I love doing it and imma keep doing it because it makes me happy.
Me: but also. I do sometimes wonder if it's like. A little Much.
Me: like maybe I should branch out or something
Me: [reads another fundamental and extremely insulting misread of McCoy's character by someone who is clearly making a Choice to cast McCoy as the villain, because they have to get him out of the way of spirk, because they're too???? idk immature??? to realize that even when you're in a relationship with one person, other ppl can and SHOULD still be important to you]
Me: lmao I hope I AM too much actually!!!! I hope it is 100% obnoxious how much I love that doctor!!!!! Time to write more versions of the same story of McCoy being forced to realize that he is loved and cared for!!!!!!
Me: I KNOW MY NICHE AND IMMA DIE IN THAT NICHE, THANKS

Ca doar ce vorbeam cu cineva drag mie si am simtit nevoia sa zic asta si aici.
Faptul ca iti plac copiii, lucrezi cu copiii, ai studiat o gramada de chestii despre copiii si (in general) le ai cu copiii, nu inseamna ca ca scrie pe fruntea ta fraier si acum vine orice duduie din neam sau apropiati cu plozii luati din cusca maimutelor de la zoo si gata. Tu esti prostul care trebuie sa ii tolereze pe ei si istericalele lor. Nope. Daca nu le dau lor un dos de palma pentru ca arunca cu ciorba prin casa, pot sa iti dau tie ca adult. Macar sa fim pe plan egal.
#asa mamica mai baga in ala de 6 ani 2 doze de cola si a patra inghetata azi plus ciocolata si prajituri fiindca e slabut si duce#asa lasa-l sa rupa si strice lucrurile altora ca tu si asa nu muncesti si iti plateste taticu tot#nu va mai luati soti de pe temu si 9999 de dependente ca dupa ne terorizati pe noi cu ce iese din voi#andreea e o scarba episodul 9999999999#mereu le zic si parintilor elevilor mei si chiar si rudelor DU-I LA PSIHOLOG DACA TU NU POTI CU EI#din N cazuri 2 s-au dus si e de bine acum#stefan a invatat si el la 8 ani ca poate sa vorbeasca si sa spuna direct daca vrea si el ceva nu sa inceapa automat sa urle si sa loveasca#andreas a invatat si el la 8 ani sa respire adanc si sa spuna ca nu ii place ca e in dezavantaj fata de alti copii si altele

dorcas and james, the most friendly gryffindor/slytherin quidditch captains ever:
will shake hands, with each other luck, congratulate each other after a game, and don't condome harming the other team's players before the match
everyone thinks they're insanely nice to each other when they're just being civil (the captains of gryff/slyth are never civil to each other. not even frank and narcissa and they were friends)
civil and polite, but still so so competitive and think the world will end if they lose. they'll shake each other's hand after the match and congratulate each other on the game and then the loser will go cry for hours in the changing room
james trying to convince marlene to flirt with dorcas during the game to throw them off (marlene agrees for the team's sakel, but it backfires when dorcas flirts back and now marlene is thrown off
they go on early morning runs with each other because no one else gets up that early (james can drag sirius up but he'll then just sit on a bench with a blanket around him and a cup of coffee as he watches james)
james giving dorcas 'the talk' when dorlene starts happening
health freaks. they eat granola and kale and seeds and try to always get the recommended amount of sleep and exercise everyday
#i'm exploring dorcas' relationships with other characters rn to work out where i land on the 'loner dorcas/has friends dorcas' scale#from thinking about james & dorcas. not quite friends but friendly#<- think that might ne the case with most characters & dorcas#but if they're friendly what's stopping them from being friends?? what's the wall put up betweem them??#is it put up by dorcas themselves?? .. think that may be the case tbh#platonic james & dorcas#dorcas meadowes#james potter#marauders#marauders era

necessito di sapere su chi è la tua fic non pubblicata (ma soprattutto pubblica!!!)
ciaooo beh fjfvjfch non so quanto possa essere di tuo interesse questa ma è su theo e brahim! la cosa divertente è che avevo tutte le intenzioni di pubblicarla subito. anche perché conoscendomi so che più tempo passa peggio è (e infatti) solo che l'ho finita di scrivere tipo all'1 di notte quindi sapevo ci sarebbero state cose senza senso.... e infatti l'ho riletta il giorno dopo e c'erano un po' di cose da aggiustare. e lì è iniziato il problema fjfvjgb ho continuato a rimandare il rimetterci mano ed è ancora lì a prendere metaforica polvere
#sono terribile scrivo una roba praticamente tutta d'un fiato poi devo rileggerla e editarla e sento la morte dentro#il meme dei due tizi sul bus ma quello che sorride è Writing e quello triste è Editing#why must a thing be edited if i want it to be readable#perché non è neanche che dev'essere Good è che certe cose cozzano proprio tra loro in termini di logica o timeline 😭😭#perché era iniziata come wip mesi prima e l'ho ripresa ma andando un po' in un'altra direzione quindi l'inizio e come poi è continuata non#hanno tanto senso insieme 😭😭#.......... non so se sta cosa vedrà mai la luce del sole. ogni tanto la rileggo e mi fa cagare 🫠#comunque in compenso mi vengono idee su fic sinnettini in media tipo 5 volte al giorno#....... però scrivo una volta ogni morte di papa quindi la scena è più o meno questa:#'maaaa se scrivessi di jannik e matteo che xyz? ...... sì dai magari dopo mi viene voglia di scrivere' io dopo: non scrivo anche se ne avre#voglia. letteralmente un caso perso non so che dire#tra l'altro l'hernandiaz è in italiano e tbh ho un po' voglia di scrivere una sinnettini in italiano#solo che già l'audience della ship è tipo 10 persone al mondo forse (tbf sono un po' aumentate di recente)#se poi scrivo in italiano chi cazzo la legge 😭😭😭😭😭 forse 3 persone#a una certa dovrei dirmi sticazzi fai quello che vuoi ma alas i crave attention#mo raggiungo il limite di tag okay mi taccio 😭😭#asks#thelightattheendofthistunnel
