@ finlay: very fitting, thanks for linking that! 見なかったら、それは最近の一番大好きなテレビドラマなんです。ぜひ見てみてください。 :wink: If you haven't seen it, Brooklyn Nine-Nine is my favourite TV show of recent years. I highly recommend it 明日アメリカに行きます。でももう頭痛になっている。たぶんその言った薬のせいじゃなくても、どんなことのせいなのは全くわからないんだ。アレルギーか、他の薬か、仕事か、天気か？わかんねー :| T...

嫌だ、飲みたくない。頭痛のないほうがいいんだよ。 Noo, I don't wanna. I'd rather, y'know, not have a headache で、そんなに要らないけど、助かるだけから。そしたら、飲まないのは大変じゃないと思うけど。早く寝るために、自分に厳しくならないとなぁ〜 Like, I don't need them that much, they just help me. Like just not having them wouldn't be so terrible, I think. But in order to get to bed quickly...

ん、飲んだ。だから今あの関連の可能性を気づいたんだ。
Yeah. That's why i realized the possible connection now

今はある頭痛は、昨日の夜に飲んだ睡眠薬の副作用なの可能性があると気づいてきた。先週も強くあった。やばいなあ
I've just realized there's a possibility that this headache I have now is the result of a side-effect of a sleeping tablet I took last night. I also had a strong headache last week. Fuck.

… 本当は優先があると思うけど、オランダの自転車を乗る人は、失礼だし、わがままだし、アグレッシブだし、あの優先を取っちゃう。 No I believe you have the right of way, it's just that dutch cyclists are rude, selfish and aggressive, so they just take priority for themselves... あと、フェイスブックは最悪。世界の一番お金持ちの会社は本格的な翻訳者を雇えないのか。うそでしょ。クラウドソーシングを使ったので、お金がかからなかった。 Also like, ...

行った時は、友達がアムスって言ってたんだ
Well, i heard 'ams' from my friends when i went there

覚えてるの？wやべー haha u remember that? oh god. そうね、あの男たちも結構やばい。で、ゲイのところはみすぼらしすぎるあんまり好きじゃないところなので the lads are pretty bad, yes. and the gay parts are just sleazy, not my kind of place at all まあ、値段は そんなに 悪くないけどさ。たぶんロンドンの方が高いけど、イヴォさんの言う通りで、サービスは、（なんていうか）露骨とか、冷たい。 no the prices aren't SO bad. actually london ...

One who zomps

i'm gonna write a few pronunciations out but mine vary depending on how i feel, or the wind or something. so you can mix and match only /onli/ - between [o:nli] or [oʊnɫi] (ie, I sometimes have a dark L and I sometimes have a diphthong for /o/, sometimes both, sometimes neither, i'm not going to wri...

Viktor77 wrote:People down here in Memphis keep asking me "Where are you staying?" to ask where we're living. Is this use of 'to stay' a Southernism?

*Edit* Typo.

probably. people say that in scotland too (though usually as "where do you stay?")

Today I gave notice that I was quitting my job. It's a little scary, but it's necessary to start moving towards the next goal. Молодец! Я полечу завтра в Амстердам в честь дня рождения Друга, который решил вчера объявить, что мы с нём будем летать, произвольно, куда-нибудь в отпуск «на выходные», п...

People do it sporadically, especially for /d/. It's a really easy feature to pick up that's not hugely stigmatized (compared to glottal stops at least), especially if you often hang out with Americans/Australians or you've spent a lot of time overseas.

Singers tend to use American accents regardless

ディエゴさんは15歳だっけ？お前たちはちょっと厳しいと思うよ。俺ならそんなに修正は全く欲しくない。というより、友達はそうやったら怒るよ。もし恥ずかしいミスがあったら、まあ、いいんだけどさ、頼んでいなかったら失礼なんですよ。 How old is Diego again, like 15? You guys are being too strict on him, I think. If it was me I wouldn't want that level of scrutiny on my posts - in fact, if my friend corrects me like tha...

Also, yes, agree with her that how she was silenced was bad. How facebook approached this was awful. Yes, stalkers discussing how to censor you is awful. But blaming others and blaming yourself is not mutually exclusive. I hope that "gender-critical" isn't another synonym for TERF because I haven't...

Saba is a kind of fish in Japanese. Mackerel, I think.

Could you see Aqaba from your window? Да, Акабу с границой Иордании и видела, а Египета/Саудии видны были только нагорные. Yes, I could see Aqaba and the Jordanian border, but only the mountains in Egypt/Saudi. I mean... Japan is pretty humid when it's hot, so perhaps I just can't believe it can be...

Heb je Aqaba gezien van uit j e raam? I'm not sure why "vanuit" is better here, possibly it has to do with "zien", as you'd throw something "uit" the window. "Jij" is wrong here, as it's the stressed nominative. "Jouw" could be used, but the unstressed form is way better. Also, Wikipedia uses "Akab...

In English it's pronounced "doyle", and that seems more or less how it's pronounced on teanglann, and possibly on forvo, although the forvo versions are a bit harder to make out (partly because of the worse sound quality). Are you saying there shouldn't be an off-glide? My "Doyle" is bisyllabic and...

45度って信じられない〜 45° is not real でも日本はやっぱり蒸し暑いのから、たぶんただそんなに乾く暑いことも信じられないな。先週キャンプ場に行っていて、渓谷にあるから、湿度は高かった、本当に。28、29度だけだったのに、すぐ汗で濡れちゃった。やばかった！ I mean... Japan is pretty humid when it's hot, so perhaps I just can't believe it can be that hot when it's dry. last week i went camping, and the site was in a kin...

雨が降るでしょう
It's gonna rain.

英語での"it rains"って、いつも雨が降るとか、モンスーンシーズンで毎日雨が降るという文だけで使うよ
The only time we say "it rains" is in sentences like "it often rains" or "it rains every day in the monsoon season"

日本は、普通に、英語のタイトルをかたかなにして、さらにときどきドイツと同じようにして、誰も言わないあんな珍しいサブタイトルを重ねる。でも、他の場合もある。たまになんとなく他の英語の言葉に引き換えちゃう(例:Arrivalのかわりにメッセージ、Whiplashのかわりにセッション)。そして、やっぱり一部は翻訳する、特に古いタイトルとか(例:Beauty and the Beastは美女と野獣になって、Frozenはアナと雪の女王になった)。慌ててるなー In Japanese they normally use the English title (in katakana), but they ...

I think I pronounced the L in almond until I came to Japan and saw it written as アーモンド - like obviously the pronunciation is different, but little things like that influence me subtly. But I dunno, I can't remember how I pronounced things five or six years ago. But I never pronounced it in other wor...
