Being an #English #teacher from the UK, I tend to teach learners that #numbers like this: 2.25 are spoken as two point two five. In Italian, decimals as read as two point twenty five and when I hear this, I correct it. However, I’ve noticed that non-native speakers often say two point twenty five - so, correct or not correct, that is the question. Probably depends on whether English #language learners interact with more with non native or native English speakers. Would you agree?
I really love how Xiaoma listens to and learns to use Gen Alpha “slang” to deliver these speeches, using that slang as though it were a real language…because *it is* a real language.
We marginalize and dismiss non-mainstream languages and dialects because we want to keep our distance from the cultures of their speakers. Every variant of “mainstream”English language, from AAVE to creole/pidgin to Gen Alpha, is valid and deserving of respect and attention.
Listening and paying attention to Gen Alpha English is really all about listening and paying attention to Gen Alpha *humans*.

Trying to find a nonbinary equivalent to incubus/succubus for D&D, I looked up the etymology.
Both prefixes are from Latin: "suc-" meaning "under," "in-" meaning "over," and the Latin root "cubare" meaning "to lie down."
Following that, I'd propose a nonbinary fiend of similar type would be a concubus, as "con-" is a Latin root meaning "beside."
Because you shouldn't have to conform to the gender binary to be a soul-stealing, umm... actually nvm.

"Her name is Gretchen. That's a German name, right?"
No.
"Gretchen", while totally archaic, is based on a German name, yes.
But this "Krettshn" thing Americans mutated it into is definitely not.
This is the original German pronunciation:
https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/transcoded/2/2a/De-Gretchen.oga/De-Gretchen.oga.mp3
Also, keep in mind that "-chen" is a diminutive suffix, "Gretchen" literally means "little Greta". It feels very strange for us when the person is an adult.

What word do you use for a carbonated soft drink? @TheConversationUS takes a look at the origin of some of the most common terms in the U.S. — soda, which likely comes from "sodium," pop, an onomatopoeia, and coke — as a generic term for all drinks, not just cola. We want to know, what do you say?

Consider this - "only 10.6 per cent of #India’s population speaks #English"
Yet so many major #Indian media outlets only publish in English, especially the ones doing investigative of longform journalism. It's the elite speaking to the elite, while the right speaks in the vernacular.
