🌻 its cruel of anyone to push someone away from their own culture just cuz they dont fit the "standards" or whatever other shit 💔 ohhh u dont know the language— stfu first of all learning a language is hard. im bilingual and its hard for ME to learn any other language. i had german and spanish in school and i simply could not learn any of them and same goes for any other language i tried to learn on my own!! i learned nothing in the end even tho ive been learning english since first primary, meaning i already should have some experience in learning a new language. but i dont. and second of all no one should ever demand proof from anyone that they are a part of this culture or whatever like!!

it’s not only annoying but also fucked up that people have the sheer audacity to set stupid requirements for OTHER PEOPLE'S identity. one's identity can be so hard and sensitive of a topic and having someone try to police u in this matter, try to tell u that no sorry u dont know the language/culture so u cant call urself that— i genuinely have no respect for people who act like this

and third of all idk man if someone came to me and said "hi i want to learn more about poland and the culture because i have polish family" (because suurprise!! im polish too!!!!) id be more than happy to tell them everything i know. even if i might not be the best knowledge source AHAJSJDKDK they dont know polish? or anything abt poland?? they just learned their family is polish??? it simply doesnt matter this person wants to learn more about themselves and im more than happy to cheer on them and hope that theyll learn everything they want. and that theyll never feel excluded out of something they deserve to have place in

this got a little long but as u can tell i got very passionate about this topic 😭😭😭 it annoys me so hard how unhuman some people can be

SOO TRUE it's so invalidating ESPECIALLYYYYY when it's always other latino or hispanic people telling me. bro please. i am doing my best here 🙏🙏

i tried for years to learn spanish and it NEVER clicked in my brain. i know basic spanish and basic french (i had to take a foreign language class a few years back so i took french 1) that's it. Please. learning a language takes so much practice and patience and the issue with learning spanish is that my pronounciation will inherently be more "white" because erm. yeahh. english is the only language i've ever spoken fluently. and for some reason, there are many native spanish speakers think it's funny to make fun of mispronounciations? so now i'm scared to practice because of that. 🫶 it's not cute or funny and it's never been in intended an affectionate way. but i am also mentally ill and neurodivergent so that probably doesn't help AJKSFBJSLSHNFM idk man but it is NOT "all in good fun" it's EMBARRASSING!!!!!

IT'S GENUINELY SO FRUSTRATING why should i have to prove my ancestry to you? like. first of all that's really none of your business and second of all i literally do not have to prove anything?!?!?!?! no-one does?!?!?!?! no-one is somehow any less of their heritage simply because they don't know much about it. literally. it is so upsetting why can we not just let people live peacefully fr.

SOOO REALL i need to ask about it again because my maternal family is generally very open about this kind of thing, and it's easy to communicate with them because there is no language barrier between us. i would love to know more about myself. because my culture is something i deserve to have a part in, you know? it's literally in my blood. it is something i always was and always will be, and i feel like i have a right to want to learn about it.

nooo it's okay!!!! i completely get it. i feel like it's becoming very common for people to be less and less human. and it makes sense, given... you know. politics and everything lately. not to be political /lh but there is just a little too much hate being spread and i dislike that so much. many people have forgotten how to be kind and it's just???? very sad and upsetting.

May I request a matchup with a JJBA character? It can be any part but my fav part is 5! ^^

I'm an INTJ/5w4/True Neutral/Evil Polysexual (specifically romantically and sexually attracted to male and female though I lean more towards males), I'm polyamorous, and trans (FTM) with Neopronouns! (He/Him/Tree)

I'm a 5'0 Mexican-American, I speak Spanish (my native tongue), English (tho despite being an English Honors, I struggle with spelling and pronunciation from time to time), and sign ASL tho not completely fluently. My looks obviously aren't completely where I want them to be. Though, curiously, I naturally have more male hormones than female so I do look fairly masculine, I don't deal with periods, and I allow my facial hair to grow from time to time. I NEVER shave my legs, they're my pride lmao. I do have dyed curly hair, usually I let my friends pick the dye, but my fav color to have it is dark green. My style can be from goth to a pastel goth. To just straight up being dressed in Mickey Mouse merch (I have an obsession with the rat 💀) I do, do makeup though I see it more as an artistic thing. I don't try to make it look good I just have fun with it. Typically, eyeliner is what I mess with.

I have an older sibling and younger ones, I'm basically the middle child and have always taken care of all of them because I'm looked as the most responsible one, while also the most chaotic one. I'd say, personality wise I'm definitely a wildcard. It all depends on who I meet. I struggle with mental health so while I can be extremely energetic, fidgety, impulsive, forgetful, and bubbly bc of my ADHD, I'm also super aggressive because of my anger issues and Homicidal Ideation. And depression doesn't help either. I also have anxiety so, I'm not good at approaching ANYONE to the point I can't make eye contact. The most I can do is flash a glance at people's eyes before looking everywhere but them. But once you get to know me and I rlly like u as a person, you'll never get me to stfu especially if it's bc of a hyperfixation 💀 I also tend to dissociate a lot when I'm left alone/in silence for too long to the point when I snap back to reality, I sometimes don't even remember who I am or where I'm at for a minute. Which causes me to become panicked and anxious. Because of this, I can't go ANYWHERE without my headphones, whatever I may be doing or not doing, I have to be listening to SOMETHING at all times to keep myself grounded. Unless ppl r actively talking to me or letting me talk. I'm also a very curious and a naturally loud person, even when I'm speaking at what I assume is a normal level, I have ppl telling me to be quite 💀

However, I'd also say I'm very knowledgeable, determined, stubborn, a problem solver and a hard worker. I don't give up easily on myself nor others. I love and study Psychology and Sociology. And bc of my ADHD my hobbies are a wide range, from drawing, to reading, to sowing, to collecting specific items. I have a very hard time understanding others from an emotional stand point (in fact I can be very apathetic) but can very much understand them from a logical stand point. So while I'm not always the best at comforting, I'm great at giving advice/solutions. I'm not afraid to speak my mind and I'm also extremely honest/straight forward. However, I'm also very well known for appearing to not take things seriously bc I often joke/make witty comments as a defense mechanism to handle things/make it through tough times. And my biggest characteristic... I'm horny on main💀 However, I know when not to overstep people's boundaries. I myself have horrible experiences with that so I always make sure ppl are comfortable with whatever contact I make with them. I can be extremely affectionate depending on a person's love language! I just always want to make sure others feel cared for and comfortable around me since I know I can be overwhelming to people. Though, I like to care for others I don't very much like when others do the same for me. I'm very much someone that's used to taking care of everything and everyone so I absolutely refuse to ask for help unless it's a completely last resort.

I'm very sorry if this is a lot! This is the second matchup I've ever requested (;ŏ﹏ŏ)

I match you with... Pannacotta Fugo!

I believe he'd likely be an INTJ as well.

He's practically the middle child of the gang so he sort of sympathizes with you. Not to mention he greatly appreciates that the two of you also enjoy similar things to him but also are knowledgeable on many different topics.

The fact that you know when not to overstep people's boundaries is something he loves, finding himself at ease knowing that you won't intentionally overstep his boundaries.

He would love to sit down and have discussions on psychology and sociology, curious about what you know, and wishes to expand his knowledge on the subject if possible.

[FN] Across the Stars, Into Your Mind

I’ve always been fascinated by rhyme.

It was too pretty to be true, how consonants and vowels merged and congealed to birth syllables and sounds that went ‘ee!’ and ‘ri!’ and ‘ti!’ and every other possible combination of the mouth. Consonants, vowels, sounds, rhymes - Language gave me amusement, and I giggled and clapped my hands.

I mastered my first language at four.

I was Matilda Wormwood, I was Charles Murry, I was Ender Wiggins, I was Nicholas Benedict. I gobbled up every book, every anthology, every newspaper scrap I could find. Nothing escaped my watchful mind, not the slightest hint of grammar, nor the most delicate wisp of vocabulary. Phonetics, grammar, pronunciation, spelling - Language gave me purpose, and I lapped it up eagerly, like a hungry cat laps up milk.

English is an Indo-European language, of the Germanic subfamily. Its closest relatives are the Frisian languages, spoken in the Netherlands, Denmark, and Germany. All too easy. I needed only to read a page or two of text, and the complex web of nouns and adjectives and verbs would yield to my piercing gaze and distangle itself, obediently, for me. By seven, I had four languages under my belt, and I was hungry for more.

The Indo-European family soon fell, one by one, under the relentless attacks of my teenage self. Swedish, Spanish, Polish, Hindi. Russian, Greek, German, Punjabi. The media had taken notice, and the world came to know about the Wonderchild, the one true Genius. The people loved me, loved seeing me broadcast into their homes at eight every morning to smile and wave and tell them about the language I had learned the previous night. Money was thrown at me by the truckfuls, all the books, exercises, and native speakers I would ever need waited patiently by my side to be used every day. Morphemes, lexemes, syntax, context. Language gave me bliss, and I sucked it in by the lungful and didn’t let go.

It was around this period that the scientists proved it. The theory that language could shape your thoughts. They had suspected it for decades, but now, at last! had proof that the tongue you spoke changed the way you saw the world. Concepts of time, and space, and colour warp and reform depending on which glib you spat. Of course, having perfect knowledge of every language on Earth (I had worked hard since my teenage years), I knew all the ways of seeing the world through the lens of humans. I yearned to go further.

First contact was made on my thirty-first birthday.

I was the emissary, of course. The system was democratic, and I won by a landslide. Within the day, I had befriended their species with my flawless tongue, and they agreed to teach me their language.

It was the hardest thing I had ever done. Years and years were spent conditioning my throat to form their impossible syllables and memorising every ridiculously beautiful exception to their grammar rules. Yet, at the end of it, I emerged triumphant - another weapon added to my fabled arsenal.

By this time, I was a legend. Every citizen of the United Planets revered me. I was a supreme being to them, incomprehensibly intelligent, the best and bestest there ever would be. And so, as contact was made with more and more alien species, I was always voted the first to step forward. In the end, as the votes for me surpassed a hundred percent of the population, they did away with the system altogether and simply sent me every time. The concepts and mentalities of innumerable civilisations, millenia upon millenia of evolution were stored in the galactic recesses of my mind. Years passed, and the people willingly toiled to create the energy and technology necessary to extend my life. I knew all the languages of the universe, and yet I felt there was something else, something more to learn.

I knew it when it came by the tingles in my toes. The first callings from an extra-dimensional plane. These were no longer mere people - they were deities, celestial beings. And I was to learn their language.

Of course, I did it. There was no question, no hint of doubt in the trillion trillion people of the universe I had left behind. When I returned as a god, there were celebrations that no parade has ever equalled, and no parade will ever surpass.

But I digress. Why am I telling you this? You may ask. The answer is simple.

You have been chosen.

Languages require people to speak them in order to survive.

The language of the gods is dying, and it needs a successor.

I will teach you everything I know.

Word by word, sound by sound, I will teach you all the languages of Earth, then the Milky Way, then the Universe.

I will teach you every concept I have learned, of space, and time, and life, and death, and concepts of the mind.

I will teach you to weave the fabric of space, every stitch and knot you must know, each warp and each woof.

I will teach you how to ride the waves of the ocean of time, not just forward and backwards, but also upwards and into the other dimensions.

I will teach you how to see inside yourself, create worlds within your mind, then birth them into being.

I will teach you my language.
