  • about lemons! there's a big swap in the names of lemons and limes, it's mostly language based but not entirely, lemons are green and bitter here, limes are the yellow big ones!

  • I'm not saying you are wrong, I'm saying the distinction might not be done everywhere, if you click the language thing on your wikipedia link and select spanish it will lead you here https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sirenas_(mitolog%C3%ADa) , if you then click to go back to english from there you'll end up in the mermaid page

  • Just wondering, how far did you get? The begining is certainly the weakest part, Silksong does a better job on improving the general lack of movement and closedness of the map early on

  • If you were to replace english in the current world, the best candidate, in my opinion, would be spanish.

    If you look at list of the most spoken languages you end up with english, mandarin, hindi and spanish, out of those spanish does not require learning a new alphabet.

    Spanish is mostly phonetic, there are exceptions here and there with how consonants are pronounced here and there, but vowels are phonetic, you can read text without wondering how something is pronounced.

    English has taken so much from latin that it actually looks a bit like a romance language despite having germanic roots, but this does mean that there's a lot of overlap in vocabulary where english words and spanish words are mostly the same.

    Of course is spanish isn't perfect, but creating a new language that covers everyone's usecase would just lead to lower adoption so I think it's the one that has the best shot while solving some glaring issues from english.

    either way it's a showerthought about humans being the natural selection for spiders, killing only the ones that come out, effectively selecting them for higher reclusion and intelligence (sorry, on phone so writing the exact text is a hassle)

  • Until you have random people install manjaro, enable aur in their package manager and install any package that's effectively a random github repo

    Yes, this is user error, but it amazes me how many people claim the AUR is better than sliced bread
