Linguists share their take on Asian American speech patterns as the existence of an “Asian American” accent sparks a debate.
Some say they can hear an 'Asian American' accent. Others deny it exists.

Nezha 哪吒 is a fascinating product of transculturation between China and India. His origin can be traced from Nalakūbara (the son of Vaiśravaṇa) through Tantric Buddhism, to China. Sanskrit Nalakūbara > Tang Chinese Nazhajuwaluo 那吒矩韈囉 (and similar) > shortened: Nezha 那吒

Yesterday, I was working with one of my students on the root ‘gran’. It brought us words such as ‘granary’ and ‘grange’, I was particularly interested in the word ‘pomegranate’.

Head to greatexpectationseducation.uk/musings/pome... to see the full etymology and language survey.

J'avais toujours cru que les commerçantes de la côte étaient nommées "Mamas Benz" (et non, "nanas benz") parce qu'elles ne roulaient qu'en Mercedes?!?

Do you have a book that influenced you deeply?
One of the books that marked my childhood was "Sans Famille" by Hector Malot; it made me understand from an early age how important and useful learning foreign languages was. #languages #books #reading #childhood

Histéricos gritam:
“O Twitter foi banido do Brasil”.
NÃO FOI NÃO!
O Twitter está SUSPENSO.
Quando o bosta do Musk pagar as multas e aceitar cumprir a legislação brasileira tudo volta como era.
Tá certo que está uma merda desde que ele comprou e rebatizou de “X”, mas aí volta como merda mesmo.

Duolingo alone won’t make you fluent.

But will a textbook?

Will doing only Anki make you fluent?

And focusing only on grammar?

Fluency needs a mix of tools and methods, integrating input and output. It requires time, consistency and continuous engagement with the language.

Agree, #langsky?

Today's cover of German magazine DER SPIEGEL, commemorating 75 years of today's Germany.
The title translates to "nothing learned?"

This design is as chilling as it is justified. Please share to make people aware that it's serious.
