Having degree 1 autism means having been a child/teen with a model behavior (always quiet, straight A's at school), and then growing into a non-functional adult with great difficulties to achieve things that are taken as a given to other people

I have heard a lot about the Spanish-Turkish brotherhood trend going on these days on X, but I totally didn't expect to get this message today on Tandem

Politics talk: I never thought I'd say this, as I was quite skeptical of Pedro Sánchez when he first became president. But God, has he stood his ground against NATO, Isr*el and Tr*mp. This guy has earned my full respect. Gracias, Pedro 🙌🙌🙌

Hey #langtwt #langsky! In your opinion, what majes some people particularly good with pronunciation in foreign languages?

Some years ago, I tried to learn Korean but gave up very quickly. Pronunciation and spelling made no sense to me and I couldn't retain vocabulary. Now, after learning Turkish, something has clicked, and Korean pronunciation rules seem slightly more logical.

Probably my hottest take related to languages is that Hindi and Urdu are dialects of one and the same language, and I will die on that hill. #langtwt #langsky

Sunday language reflection: why do Turkish, Hindi, Persian and Korean all tend to skip the 'h' sound in their spoken forms (e.g. 'daha' becomes 'daa')? Does this sound take more effort to be uttered? Is it more expendable? Is this in any way related to Romance languages not having this sound? 🤔

Tara's Thoughts @tarasthoughts.bsky.social · 01/02/2025

If the languages you study/are interested in represent your political allegiance and, as it turns out, I'm learning Russian and Persian... does that make me an enemy of the West? 🤔

Tara's Thoughts @tarasthoughts.bsky.social · 01/02/2025

One of the reasons why I was reluctant to claim the 'autistic' label for myself was that one of the main stereotypes about autistic people is that we can't get sarcasm, subtext or double entendres (thinking about Sheldon Cooper and TBBT in particular).

Language/history fun fact of the day: in 1935, the Shah of Persia changed the name of his country to Iran. 'Iran' is related to the word 'Arya', which is how the original inhabitants of those lands called themselves in ancient times (the word was later misappropriated by a certain regime).

I feel flattered by the followers I am getting, but I must warn y'all that, apart from languages, you may see a number of posts of mine about politics, autism and psychology and human life in general. ✌️

How about we let Greenlanders decide what to do with THEIR OWN land? Just a mere suggestion, you know.
