I've been practising rigging in Moho and am tempted to ditch my current first shite rig and go for something a lil different now that I've been learning how to do it properly.. it is decent for a first try tho. Patting myself on the back for self teaching myself how.

an unintended discovery I've had learning how to play an instrument is that my personification synesthesia extends to music. I kinda realised that I've been thinking of the scales when I practice them like this (based on their sounds, not names):

C: the top dog but not cocky about it. the eldest, mild in temperment, but kind of aloof and rarely spoken to candidly

D: fun-loving yet responsible, sort of avuncular. the party animal of the outfit

E: smug and far from modest, a teacher's pet

F: a little meek and tends to feel unnoticed

G: sort of a neutral personality to this one, they just get the job done, if that makes sense (none of this makes sense)

A: a loner from the others, but self-assured and happy about that. a weird kid who breaks away the pack

B: they're hard to understand and get through to. also separate from the rest, but in a more ostracised way than A

Good Good Question for someone with ordinal-linguistic personification.

3. 3 is a young GNC woman who's kind of a daredevil. Probably quite emotionally vulnerable but uses a mask of cockiness to hide it.

4. Oh, sweet 4. You beautiful Disney Princess waif. 4 just wants to sing in the woods with all of her animal friends, and she gives new meaning to the term "naive." That asshole 5 is always creeping on her, and while he makes her uncomfortable, she worries about how best to refuse him without being Impolite. I think 3 is quite protective of her. Maybe they're a couple? I go back and forth on that one.

2. 2 is an upper-class but nouveau riche British woman c. 1955 who survived the Blitz and now wears Dior every day. She is middle-aged and also very protective of- but very exasperated by -4.

8. 8 amuses me. He's such a would-be tyrant, but nobody ever listens to him. Sound and fury signifying nothing. A man on the cusp of being elderly. Maybe British, maybe a Boston Brahmin of the old school.

9. 9 is the plucky farm lad who just received The Call to save his [kingdom/star system/whatever]. He's a bit bookish, very earnest, and may or may not have magical powers. I feel like he, 3, and 4 would make an excellent adventuring team in a fantasy story.

Numeral Exercises

        NUMERAL DEFINITION AND EXERCISES

In English grammar, numerals function as a part of speech to represent numbers, quantify nouns, and express numerical relationships. There are two main types of numerals in English: cardinal numerals and ordinal numerals. Cardinal Numerals: Cardinal numerals represent specific quantities or numbers. They answer the question how many? and are used to count objects or denote a precise quantity. Examples: One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten Eleven, twelve, thirteen, fourteen, fifteen, sixteen, seventeen, eighteen, nineteen Twenty, thirty, forty, fifty, sixty, seventy, eighty, ninety One hundred, two hundred, three hundred, etc. One thousand, two thousand, three thousand, etc.   Ordinal Numerals: Ordinal numerals denote the order or rank of items in a sequence. They answer the question in what order? and are used to indicate the position of something in a series. Examples: First, second, third, fourth, fifth, sixth, seventh, eighth, ninth, tenth Eleventh, twelfth, thirteenth, fourteenth, fifteenth, sixteenth, seventeenth, eighteenth, nineteenth Twentieth, thirtieth, fortieth, fiftieth, sixtieth, seventieth, eightieth, ninetieth Hundredth, thousandth, millionth, billionth, etc.   Numerals can function as determiners when they directly modify nouns, indicating the quantity or position of the noun. For example: Cardinal Numeral as Determiner: Three apples fell from the tree. Ordinal Numeral as Determiner: The first prize goes to the winner.   Numerals can also function as adjectives when they modify nouns but do not directly specify quantity or order.  For example: Cardinal Numeral as Adjective: She bought two pairs of shoes. Ordinal Numeral as Adjective: He is in his third year of university.   Additionally, numerals can function as nouns themselves, particularly when referring to numbers as concepts or entities. For example: The number eight is considered lucky in some cultures. She divided the class into groups of four.       Instructions: Please, do the exercises without seeing the Answers.

First post!! I wanted to show you how deep a rabbit hole you can dig with a very simple concept like, "What does 'four' mean?"

I have a number line.

So, I'd like you to imagine that you've sat down across from me on your first day in class, and I put some kind of math worksheet with this number line on it that gives you a very simple-sounding task: "Circle four."

If you are like nearly every one of the older students I've had, you'll circle the number 4 on the line. And I'd say something like, "That is a perfectly reasonable response to this request. There is nothing wrong with what you've done. But aren't you suspicious about how simple this question sounds? Did you see that there was a twist coming?"

On a number line, the place where we've written 4 is not actually the value 4. It is more like the position 4; we would call this the ordinal number (a number used to track the positional order of things; another example of an ordinal number is the word "fourth," which tells you that there are three other things before that one).

So, if you just circled the number 4, you definitely circled the position, but the thing you circled isn't worth 4. If you were going to circle the thing that has the value (or cardinality, since we're counting individual objects) of 4, it would look something more like this:

This is because in order to have the value of 4, you need everything that came before it! Imagine counting out candy while your kid sister steals and eats the candies you counted already. When you get to your final number, that number is not how many candies you have, but rather how many you counted cuz your sister's got 'em all! For the value of your candies to stay the same, you need all of them to be there!

"Four" could also look, less straightforwardly, like this:

The distance from the start of the circle to the end is four; and since we're circling the line, the length of the line that is circled is four. If we imagine the circle starts (from the left) at the position of 2.3, it would have to end at the position (from the right) 6.3. If we find the difference of the numbers at these positions, we would be doing the equation 6.3 - 2.3 = 4.

A quick summary:

The position of a number is shown with an ordinal number.

The actual physical quantity of the individual items is shown with a cardinal number, which we more typically call the value.

We can find a value inside the ordinals by finding the distance between any two ordinals, via subtraction.

Okay... But notice we've used two words here that seem to imply the same thing: difference and distance. Let's clear this up real quick:

Difference is the result of subtraction. Generally, if we want to find the difference between two things, we subtract the first thing from the second thing:

second - first = difference

But that's not a rule, so much as a norm. In reality, if you wanted to find the difference of two numbers, the person asking had best be very clear which way they want you to do it, because if you reverse this you will get the negative of the result above!

For example, if you were asked to find the difference between 6 and 15, you would do 15 - 6 = 9. But if it's not clear and you instead did 6 - 15, you get -9.

If, however, someone wanted to know how far apart these two numbers are, they would not be asking the difference but rather the distance between these numbers. The result would therefore be the absolute value of either one of these subtractions:

|15 - 6| = |9| = 9, |6 - 15| = |-9| = 9 Same result!

This is in actuality the real use of absolute values. Absolute value is typically shown as "the distance from zero," which is kind of true? But it's really for finding distances of any kind -- in fact, it's later used to mean exactly that when you get into complex algebra (that is, algebra with imaginary numbers) and linear algebra (matrices and vectors).

But that's for later.

I'm so angry at Duolingo rn, because with the new update they made changes in courses and as a result there are whole categories of vocab that I haven't learnt, but an app assumes I know... How am I supposed to figure out what I should've learnt and at what point in the course I was supposed to learn this new vocab? What a nonsense

Ordinal linguistic personification is smth I've learned abt semi-recently and it fucking blows my mind that it's not like... smth that everyone does ???

Like are y'all telling me that you didn't accidentally form personalities for numbers bc you kept noticing patterns in equations ?????

Like it was an involuntary thing for me, but it DID form bc of the influence of equations and shit. Like 4 6 and 8 are in a love triangle bc of different equations that involves them. 6 and 8 have like... a hate-equation relationship w/ each other but tbh they don't hate each other as much as they say they do.

Uhhhh anyways 3 and 9 are my favorite characters they're very sibling coded.
