quick someone teach this poor lizard plato’s allegory of the cave

Which Bob’s Burgers character are you?

lol what i got Bob: “You may come across as a stick in the mud every now and then, but really you just want to take care of your family, and when you’re not worried about making ends meet you’ve got quite a few quirks yourself.”

so i noticed this interesting thing where sometimes non-native speakers are better at a language than its native speakers? only in certain aspects though. for example in english, they’re good at types of clauses, conjunctions, and verbs.  idk if i explained this right

YES i know exactly what you mean. i was telling my english friend that i was learning phrasal verbs in school and she did not know what those were (but obviously she speaks better english than me)

It is actually proven that non-native English speakers are able to achieve higher scores, including a perfect 12/12, in this quiz compared to native English speakers. “Non-natives generally study grammar and mechanics of a language in a more focused way than native speakers. While an English speaker might inherently know grammar rules, non-natives can actually explain those rules, so students fully understand and remember them”

I got a 50% on this and english is my first language lol I feel like I learned some of this stuff in elementary school though? But just forgot?

i got 4 wrong and i sent this to my german friend and she got only 1 wrong 😂 wtf?

what the fuck is a noun clause

am i the only one who feels like i don’t even have my own personality? I just pick up traits and behaviors from people i admire and idolize and smash it all into one huge ass mess. And that shit changes weekly at this point.

it lists other things that meghan’s also been criticized for as well… and how her and prince harry and have also worked hard to fulfill their duties

also people are saying that the british press always criticizes everyone and yes, while that’s true, i don’t understand why the public in general prefers kate over meghan? like why are we pitting the 2 against each other? with all the criticism, people should be standing up for one another. we don’t know the real story of what the family thinks about meghan, what fued is happening, or whether she’s a “diva” or not “royal enough,” but it’s dumb that like apparently 60% of the public prefers kate or meghan

happy valentines yall
