Monster@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Are you learning another language? How far along are you?1·6 days agoDefinitely, I try as much as I can to use the Japanese keyboard and reading in Japanese. It’s a cool language and same, there are some songs that I like that I have no idea what they’re singing about
Monster@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Are you learning another language? How far along are you?1·6 days agoAh, I didn’t even catch that. OK then I might be wrong about it being derived from 話す, ah oh well, we’re all learning
Monster@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Are you learning another language? How far along are you?0·6 days agoFrom what I understand (Don’t take what I say as correct as it may be wrong) but when 語(はな) hana, which is derived from 話す(はなす) hanasu which is the verb to speak, is paired with a nationality, with some exceptions of course like English which is 英語(えいご) eigo, it describes a language. So, pair 語(はな) hana with 日本(にほん) nihon, Japan in Japanese, then you get 日本語(にほんご) nihongo, meaning Japanese. Another example is French which is フランス語 (Furansugo).
And 勉強 is the Kanji for べんきょ(benkyo) which means study.
Charlatan
Monster@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Are you learning another language? How far along are you?0·6 days agoはい、私は日本語勉強します。(Yes, I’m studying Japanese.) I’ve been doing it for the past year but not consistently. I can say and understand basic phrases but I’m far from being able to hold a conversation.
“So this is me. I bet you’re wondering how I got into this situation. Well, let me tell you…”

Some people want wealth because it means they can minimize interactions with others.7·13 days agoI want wealth for ease of mind. No more worries about food, shelter, and health for me and my family.
Well if they bothered to submit those patents instead of leaving them in the basement then they might be able to live in a retirement home
Monster@lemmy.worldto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•when is "cool" fine and when is it rude?4·15 days agoTo make sure I don’t mean it to be sarcastic, I usually say “Cool cool”. That usually goes over nicely
Monster@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What nice thing have you done recently that noone knows about?6·19 days agoI gave my younger cousin my Z Fold 5 for free. I got a new phone and he said he wanted a foldable so it made sense
Monster@lemmy.worldto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What are your notable stories of selling or giving away things online?6·19 days agoI was selling an Xbox one and a dude got in touch with asking if he could trade something for it. I can’t remember what it was but I think it was slightly worth less than what I was selling for so I offered a deal. Give me this plus $100 and the Xbox is yours. He agreed so I traveled about an hour to meet him at a train station and met up with him.
I give him the Xbox and he gives me the thing and looks me dead in the eye and says “Well, where’s my $100?”
I don’t know how people can be like that. It baffles me. Needless to say, I just settled the deal with what he gave me since I just wanted that Xbox gone.
Monster@lemmy.worldto Games@lemmy.world•Stellar Blade on PC Hit 1 Million Sales 19 Times Faster Than on PlayStation 5English34·20 days agoI’m fine with having it on ps5 only. I’ve been playing it since it came out and it’s actually pretty good. The combat is solid and the exploration is pretty fun. And, yeah sure, part of the appeal is the outfits you can get for the character but like anything, finding an earning a new outfit is pretty fun
Monster@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Tell me about when a stranger was kind to you3·27 days agoYes, very nice! I wish I could remember her though.
No, but if you were to see what I look like in real life then you probably wouldn’t do anything either. Just the joys of not being able to pick my genes.
Monster@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Tell me about when a stranger was kind to you10·27 days agoWhen I was in high school I was working in a grocery store for an after-school job. While on a weekend shift, a customer didn’t seem to be having a good day and lashed out at me for not being to find something. A lady who I’ve never seen before came to my defense and stood up for me against the guy and actually vouched for me to my supervisor who came to intervene. That was the last time I think anyone has ever stood up for me.
I’m working on a freelancing project for a company that’s going to be paying me over $5k for the work I’ve done. I don’t know what I’m going to be using the money for but it’ll be nice to not have to worry about money for a while.
Monster@lemmy.worldto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What was the strangest reason you got in trouble in school?4·29 days agoI was maybe in grade 6 and it was after class with only myself and two other classmates. Guess these two had beef with each and started fighting. I wanted NO part in it and I was a scrawny shrimp so I walked away. After the teacher came in and broke it up we all got into trouble. The other two got into trouble for fighting and for me the teacher told me I should’ve done something to stop it.
Monster@lemmy.worldto Mental Health@lemmy.world•How are you going to practice self care this weekend?English2·29 days agoI’m going to be going between Resident Evil 3 on my new TV and surround sound system and Conan Exiles on my pc and sleeping and watching Funhaus. Family finally went home after so long so now I have the house to myself. I’m going to make the best of it.
Was running around with my cousins on pavement wearing flip flops. I was chasing my cousin who ran up stairs and I slipped and hit my face on the side of a stair. To this day, I still have the scar on my lip that my tooth opened up.
