revelryintheart she/her Posted August 25, 2020 Posted August 25, 2020 Hey @The One Ring what country do you live in? (If you don't mind sharing)
Condensation she/her Posted August 25, 2020 Posted August 25, 2020 8 hours ago, The One Ring said: Same. And as a fellow Asian, I'd like to ask you whether or not Star Wars is a HUGE HIT in your country. I'm pretty sure less then 1/6 of my country's population have watch it. Reveal hidden contents The Avengers is far more famous Hide contents And I haven't watch it *seen or watched, not watch. 8 hours ago, Scout_Fox said: WOAH this is actually super interesting for me my Western mindset bias was just totally going off here thinking all like "oh yeah it's super popular because it's popular here" and not even thinking about that very interesting! I would be quite curious for The_Truthwatcher's answer. And The One Ring do you think there is a specific reason why Avengers (which you should totally watch btw it's awesome ) is more popular where you live or is it just because? I'ma be sure to check this next time I can lol super, super interested *I'm going to be sure 8 hours ago, The_Truthwatcher said: Avengers is probably more popular because it is happening right now. Star Wars came out in like 1980, and I don't think thee were many cinema halls at that point in time. Many people did see the sequels but the Avenger movies are much more famous. *there Hahaha! I shall fix all of your mistakes! Actually, not all of them, I probably will miss some at some time

Scout_Fox he/him Posted August 25, 2020 Posted August 25, 2020 (edited) 10 hours ago, The One Ring said: I agree with The Truthwatcher but I also think it’s because Star Wars is too classic, like lord of the rings, for beginners it’s sometimes not easy to like it. Huh that's super interesting too yeah that makes sense! You want to be current so that you can talk and discuss with people in the now and feel more connected. SO it makes sense that things that are more classic could be not as appealing unless it became a bigger part of popular culture like it did in the US.

Check the actual dictionary. But... it's Google. Lol it does list it as informal and some dictionaries do not list it including Merriam-Webster true but if you check the New Oxford American Dictionary it is listed (if you have a Mac it is the default dictionary application, can also look it up in the online version) Collins English Dictionary also lists the full version as correct but doesn't list the abbreviated 13 minutes ago, Matrim's Dice said: Well, even that would mean I'm wrong whenever I use 'Ima' because I don't ever add in the apostrophe... 9 minutes ago, BreezeCauthon said: I always say type it "Imma."

You have the right to speak however you want, but in the end so do other people. The mods encourage us to use good grammar if possible, but English isn’t everyone’s first language and an acronym every now and then is considered just fine. I didn’t say it to defy you; I meant it as a joke aimed at everyone. I definitely get the pain of people making grammar mistakes - I’ve copied hundreds of pages of RP into editable documents for partially that reason - but if you try to correct everyone’s grammar I worry that you’ll burn out quickly. I think I’d die if I tried. Edited August 25, 2020 by AonEne

AonEne he/him Posted August 25, 2020 Posted August 25, 2020 (edited) No, I mean that. If you actually try to correct everyone’s grammar all the time, you will eventually mentally explode. It might not look like what you think it will, but it’ll come. Edited August 25, 2020 by AonEne
