Um, I think Spanish is the the language that offers the most utility and ease to the average American. Yes, French has massive influence on English, and it is probably the easiest language to gain vocabulary. However, I feel it helps mainly in the written form, as French also has liaison, which takes a while to get used to hearing. Spanish, on the other hand, does not have liaison, and the spelling of words actually matches the pronunciation, unlike French. Plus, there are Spanish speakers just about everywhere in the US. She said it was her grandmother who was born in the US and learned Polish from her parents, so this was before World War 2. If you guys never heard of mutual intelligibility: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mutual_intelligibility

Why would your Polish grandmother understand spoken Russian anyway? The languages are not mutually intelligible. Second language acquisition is quite different from native language acquisition. I really just think your grandmother relied much more on English than Polish if she forgot it. My mother's native language is Japanese, and I know she'll never forget it even if she becomes completely isolated from the culture. She does certain abstract things almost exclusively in Japanese, like counting numbers.

I was just following your logic when you post normally, so it's quite hard to tell when you're being "silly." Whatever.

What if the photographer is male? Besides, you're probably only gonna see this person a few times and it's only to take good pictures, not practice picking up.

I was just thinking about saying this again to him the other day.

I can assure you most women will not find that funny at all. Taking good pictures is the most important thing on these apps. You might as well pay for a professional photographer to take your pictures since, no offense, you're willing to pay for sex.

So Biden wants at least 70 percent of the population to have at least one dose by July 4. Our community beat that goal by over 2 months.

At least try not to sound like such an old fart, if you wanna go playing a different personality route.

I'm getting discharged on Monday in all likelihood.

Yeah, cause there's still trace amounts of nicotine in the body. Once it's gone, it's mostly a psychological game.

A thread about smoking is shit and Packard is the fly. The end.

Cigarette smoke has a smell. A rose by any other name smells just like shit.

Someone's tempting yet another ban 😂

Time to bring back opium dens.

Cold turkey too. I'm not out of the woods yet, but the worst is over. I've never been addicted to such a high amount of nicotine before. Vaping allows one to consume nicotine more places than smoking, and at higher strengths of nicotine. The withdrawal hasn't been as bad as I thought. My anxiety and irritability has been rather low compared to other times I have quit. I have difficulty concentrating, I'm barely sleeping, I have a nagging headache, and everything physically feels hotter. I know these symptoms symptoms will gradually subside. Good luck to anyone else trying to kick shitty habits picked up from the pandemic.
