I draw sometimes. I'm a 20 year old language nerd from Argentina. Lifelong fan of Homestuck and highly nostalgic for the early 2010s.

My languages are: Spanish (native), English (heritage), Polish (currently learning!), Swedish and Italian (A1~2)
Isn't this the map of Elder Scrolls 2: Daggerfall? The game known for having a map the size of real-life Great Britain? They'd probably have to scale it down a bit.

I like the Polish eagle.

I love it when Europeans make fun of the USA for doing something that like half the world does. Like they're really obsessed with making fun of the United States for tipping Being A Thing, as if in no other country did people tip a server just to be polite.

Supposedly the specs for the Steamdeck 2 got leaked. I'd say to wait for that one instead, especially if you need the cash for schoo

The easiest, but also probably hardest way to help with that is to have friends who speak the language you're learning. I get hyperfixated on languages all the time, but the only way I managed to learn past the first 20 pages of a grammar book was by talking to my Polish friends in their language.

That's interesting. To me it seems very similar to other Germanic languages, in particular in sentences like "vill du ha en kopp kaffe?" where every single word has an English cognate.

Esperanto = esperando (From Spanish: gerund form of the verb "to wait")

Someone who's impatient might not want to learn a language called Waiting.

Sorry, I saw you reposted a Portuguese post and I assumed you spoke the language? I don't, myself.

Esperar is an Iberian Romance term meaning "to wait."

If your language has no word for Sapir-Whorf, does the Sapir-Whorf hypothesis still apply to it?

I don't think seven particularly would be easy to compress into one syllable. A big part of it is that the last syllable is (depending on dialect, of course) a syllabic /n/, and I'm not sure English allows a consonant-less syllable like [svn̩] or even [sɛvn].

A lot of people are put off from learning Esperanto because they don't like to wait.
