WHAT THE FUPLIE

 

[StripySnailGirl04]

For those members (you know who you are) who make excessively verbose posts, my advice is......

In promulgating your esoteric cogitations
or articulating your superficial sentimentalities and amicable philosophical and psychological observations,
beware of platitudinous ponderosities.

Let your conversational communications
possess a clarified conciseness,
a coalescent consistency and a concatenated cogency.

Eschew all conglomerations of flatulent garrulity,
jejune babblement and asinine affectations.

Let your extemporaneous descantings and
unpremeditated expatiations have intelligibility and
veracious vivacity without rodomontade orthrasonical bombast.

Sedulously avoid all polysyllabic profundity,
setatious vacuity,
ventriloqual verbosity or
vain vapidity,
obscurant or apparent.

Shun double entendre,
purient jocosity and
pestiferous profanity.

In other words…
Say what you mean and
mean what you say,
and don’t use big words!!

@WhistlingBadger
Do you speak and write in Greek?
If so, translate @Fishmanic long paragraph of something into Greek!

No, but google translate does. ha ha

I'm an extremely amateur student of Koine (ancient Greek). I'm a Christian and I enjoy looking up tricky Bible passages in the original languages so I can get the nuances. But other than that, I'm pretty clueless.

So, that's an interesting topic. What languages does everyone speak, besides English?

I used to be near-fluent in German and Haitian Kreyol and reasonably conversant in Spanish, but I've forgotten most of it through lack of practice. I'm still pretty good with Pig Latin, though.

I always thought the Ukrainians spoke Russian. I'm guessing it's similar?

Majority of Ukrainians speak Ukrainian and Russian. I understand some Russian.
Ukrainian Language is similar to Russian and Polish.
However, Ukrainian has more 'softer' sounds and Russian words have more harder 'sounds'.
You can tell if a person is truly Ukrainian because they are able to pronounce these soft sounds. For anyone else, it is very difficult.

yeah
its the worst when you want to talk to someone but people keep talking over you

YESSS I used to be part of this friend group where allll the girls rushed to just get a word in, nobody could stop talking. I would sit there and listen and try to contribute to the conversation, but they would get bored of what i was saying and start talking about something else. Eventually I realized it was just the group. I was “weird” because I kept aquariums and I had rabbits. People thought I was weird because I was so quiet. The thing was, it wasn’t anything to do with me. It was just that they were mean and judgmental and rude.

So sad... I can definitely relate to that.
