I honestly do not bother to live with my parents. I don't even consider it a failure or a problem. Rather than a financial issue, I think cultural asp...

Someone who loves his country is the one who helps to improve it. I am also fond of my country, even though I spend a lot of time criticising and rant...

It's interesting to know that the situation is same in Australia. I said it was a Spanish thing since while I was in college, most exchange students w...

:rofl: I mean, we do not buy bread in specific areas inside supermarkets or malls. Mercadona sells bread, but it is "their" bread. There are also bake...

I promise I am a gentle son. I do all the housework, and I always help my parents when it is needed. I know how to sweep, put the washing machine on, ...

The tomato was good quality, indeed. Look at that beauty in the photo. It is red, big, tasty and robust. I don't know what Trader Joes is, but bread i...

Sugar is simply a carbohydrate. Sweet is the taste.

I guess you mean sweet rather than sugar, actually.

How can I experience colour!? What if I never experienced red colour, and you asked me for a red pen? I would feel a big feeling of anxiety in my ches...

Yeah, thanks for your effort, Jamal. We owe you one!

Many thanks! :up:

Understood. There will be no more paella and Sake images from now on. :up:

You asked me for a red pen. I hand you a pen which is covered by a red label and says: 'red ink pen'. You start to use the pen, but it turns out that ...

I think I can see it. By uncountable in your definition, it means that there are infinite subspaces or dimensions. Right? It is not about to be counta...

It turns to an uncountable dimension. Right? Or am I lost in something? Now, I can't see the next step in your rule.

As I said in previous pages of this thread, asking for a red or blue pen is picky. The main point of a pen is writing on paper. It is an object that h...

@"Kizzy" Let me know what you think, but do not feel any pressure to read it now. Only whenever you can. Honestly, this was the last serious and quali...

So, he really exists. Van Something (a.k.a Van de Mieroop) is a mysterious author. Gotcha, it is just his pseudonym. :lol:

I almost believed that Martin Van De Something was a real name. I searched on Google for the title of the book, and it appeared a guy called Marc Van ...

The video is not available. :sad:

When I read 'Butoh' I thought about Yukio Mishima and yes, the video also made a reference to him. Although Mishimas was an excellent novelist, he als...

:up: After thinking about it, you're correct that once a year is enough. We risk losing enthusiasm if there are two competitions in a six-month span. ...

Yeah, "heroes,” but Spain couldn’t be a member of the European Union until Franco’s death, and Chile was forgotten in its little corner of South Ameri...

Do you feel a weight on your shoulders for how your children would feel in the future? Do you believe they will feel ‘disappointed’ with you? Even tho...

It is odd folks that we didn't have a short story competition this summer. What happened to 'Short Stories July-Aug 2024'? Since @"Baden" , @"Noble Du...

So, you are tuning Italian songs this summer, Amity. Time to eat a foccacia and drink limoncello. :cool:

Ward No. 6 by Anton Chekhov. The prologue was written by Gorki. I don't know to what extent this is important and I don't usually read the prologues o...

Indeed. Imamura's films are quite impressive, and they tend to break away from traditional Japanese filming. Even their characters are very remarkable...

The expression of consent – or assent in some cases –. It may be stated expressed or implied. The OP must be referring to the latter. A succinct but f...

Hello Clarky and welcome to another Saturday of film recommendations. I bring a beautiful film from Iran. Although I am aware that Iranian films are s...

Colours are secondary qualities of the objects. If the banana is yellow or green, it doesn’t influence its properties or how affects me when I eat it.

A colour is a quality of the object, not a property.

I did not get it. Sorry, I'm lousy at puns. But I made meatballs with tomato sauce, pepper, and fries, and you are welcome to enjoy them with me. Plea...

Imagine you ask a colour blindness for a 'red' pen, and he gets it right handing you the red pen. Why did this happen? Your colour-blindness classmate...

Okay. Let's say the mantis shrimp sees red pigment. When it sees it, what does the mantis shrimp call it? "Red", "rojo", "rosso" etc. This is the poin...

Yeah. It would be interesting to think about the eventual scenario where you have to teach the helper what the red pen is. When I attended kindergarte...

Saffron rice is absolutely delicious. You prepared a typical Mediterranean meal! I believe your dinner was tasty. :smile: It is the birthday of my dad...

:up: How does an animal know that it is seeing a colour? These are part of the human vocabulary and language. A dog expresses himself using the sound ...

Basically, you are not guilty of anything. Airbnb and stupid politicians are greedy and love to exploit the cities until everything is dry. https://yo...

Lucerne and Albert by Leo Tolstoy.

Are you referring to the light that reflects those colours right? because the amount of cone cells in the electromagnetic spectrum and the colour whee...

Muy bueno. Una opinión interesante. En mi opinión, slur no puede tener mucha cabida en la lengua española. Básicamente es otro anglicismo más que se h...

Folks, why do I buy different coloured collars for my dog? Why do I say that my dog’s favourite ball is the red one? Why do I put the water and food i...

Yes, it is awesome. The eye is probably one of the most important sensory organs, yet it is a bit underrated.

Rather than perceiving colour, I believe we perceive light and reflection. That is why a blind person suffers from no light perception. Therefore, a b...

Asking for a 'green', 'red', or 'blue' pen is simply picky. The aim of every pen is to write, not to display colours.

You would know it when that person handed you the 'red pen’. If that person mistakenly hands you a blue one, you should ask for a red one instead. Ano...

I can only say that I appreciate your help in this thread, Lionino. I like the first post more than the second because it is clearer. You know, when A...

I am aware of how you will perceive me from now on. It is that simple to ignore me (and other users like me) without the unnecessary extra effort to c...
