Click in the bottom right corner and select the language!

Or several languages.

This is awesome.

Wow. Bluesky not only allows us to select the language of each post, but even to combine languages.

Ka rawe!

And what's this?

Well, this is disappointing.

Listen now to "Sì", the new album from Andrea Bocelli: https://andreabocelli.lnk.to/SiAlbumYT Watch the Music for Hope full event here : https://andreabocell... Andrea Bocelli - Gloria the Gift of Life (Audio)

While we're at it, lemme try how Bsky treats YouTube links. Does the video display right there like it does over on Twitter?

No, I haven't and I don't know if I will. It turned out to be really not my cup of tea.

Philosophical essays aren't usually my cup of tea, but it's in Catalán. Gotta read what I can get.

Bei manchen von den Leuten, die ich jeden Morgen vor dem Kindergarten sehe, weiß ich nicht, ob sie Eltern oder Großeltern sind. Und ich trau mich nicht fragen.

Yiddish sounds like Swiss German.

The cake was great.

I'll have you know, I went to a kiddie birthday party and ate one (1) potato chip.

Polyglot reading challenge:
Each time you finish a book, start the next book in a different language.

Who's in?

French: "This chair is feminine: la chaise." German: "This chair is masculine: der Stuhl!" English: "This chair is an object, I don't see a skirt or a pair of trousers anywhere on its cold hard surface. You people are fucking insane." Japanese: "If you don't pronounce chair exactly right, you'll end up saying testicles instead."

#langsky #linguistics

Many disciplines/fields now have their own feeds. Feeds are to Bsky what library sections are to a library. Linguists and language nerds, use the #langsky or #linguistics tag to add your language-related posts to the dedicated "section" (= feed), instead o/t general one (where we might not see them)

In Germany we don't say "You might want to rethink your stance on this topic."

We say: "Someone shat into your brain and forgot to stir."

And I think that's beautiful.
