It’s not clear if the developers are simply trying to build a free alternative to Duolingo, but I’m not a fan of that approach anyway.
I tried Duolingo, but it was really just a flashy form of rote memorization. I had much greater success using Language Transfer, which is also free but is a series of MP3s.
Maybe this could be used in conjunction with LT, the former for vocabulary and the latter building up grammar and processing skills.
On the other hand, the inflation rate in Japan has averaged close to 0% for the past 30 years. Japan used to be considered an expensive country, but now I think it’s safe to say that it’s cheaper than much of North America and Europe
Corned beef seems to have originated in Ireland and Scotland, but was commonly used throughout the British Empire for the past 400 years. I assume the cooking and salting process makes it last much longer without going bad, which would make sense for long voyages.
Is it possible they ask the employees what food they wished to be served on that day? And the ones who are complaining were a minority who didn’t want it?
It’s equally possible that they didn’t consult employees and just didn’t something that they thought was appropriate.
It’s not clear how it happened.
My guess is, the concern is thinking that if Donald Trump is re-elected, he would pardon this guy.
There are so many flavors of protestantism, it’s hard to give a blanket answer.
For example, high Anglican practice and theology are almost indistinguishable from Catholic, except that the head of their Church is an archbishop (and above him theoretically the King of England) rather than a pope, and their priests can get married. That makes some historical sense, because the church was created simply because Henry the 8th wanted to divorce and the Pope wouldn’t allow it.
Most mainline Protestant churches believe that it is the individual’s right and responsibility to read and interpret scripture for themselves.
I don’t think your quote at all addresses the concept of whether Catholics doctrine declares the Bible to be literally true. Inerrant, yes.
I think there is confusion because the church believes that some passages should be taken literally and other symbolically, and the church will tell you which is which.
In 2005, 106 passengers were killed and more than 500 injured.
Almost exactly 50% of Christians in the world are Catholics, who acknowledge that the Bible is allegorical and not literal truth.
If you are referring to fundamentalists (typically evangelicals), yes most of them do believe in the literal truth. Evangelicals in the US are about 24% of the population, and most likely Less in the rest of the world.
Also, the actor who played Boss Hogg had been in Army Intelligence during the Korean war, and spoke about 12 languages.
I have a daily calendar of these cartoons, and it really is the high point of waking up to turn to a new day. Amazingly, my wife also enjoys it (we are very compatible in most things but not humour).
They also practiced polygamy, so that rich and influential men would have multiple wives and poor men would have none. Imagine the rage when you were a Shepherd tending someone else’s flocks, knowing that you will never have a wife or family.
It makes sense to have occasional wars with neighboring tribes so that excess males can be removed from the system.
Next you are going to say that we stole our alphabet from the Romans, who stole it from the Greeks, who stole it from the Phoenicians!
Oh, you are right. It’s been a couple of decades since I actually had to write Japanese by hand.
You are wrong. This is the character for “correct”. “Five” is similar. Both have five strokes.
五 = five
正 = correct, positive
About 20 years ago I read this:
Americans say, “I don’t know why people hate us”, and that is why people hate Americans.
I have a Bip as well, and aside from the silly name I love it. Even after 5 years a single charge lasts more than a month.
It tracks my sleep and steps, and is always on (other smartwatches turn the display off to save the battery).
It doesn’t do all the fanciest things. I can’t answer phone calls or send text messages (it will display received messages), but the advantages far away the drawbacks.
That is the most perfect comment I’ve ever seen!
My understanding is that paperless orders, like this one, are not appealable. Ever since she was chastised in two appeals at the circuit level, she has been only releasing paperless orders for this very reason.
I have been learning Spanish with Language Transfer. My wife has too, and even though she does not have much of a gift for languages, she found it very intuitive and rewarding.
For those of you who haven’t looked at language transfer, it has Spanish, Greek, Turkish, Arabic, French, German, Swahili, italian, and music theory. Some of those are introductions, others are full courses.
