English text in black, background is white. The text is about different ways to say F*uck you from the Language Nerds FB page.
I had to copy and share this Language Nerds’ post 😁 for example this is why learning languages might someday be useful 😇 #languagesky

Vibe check for #LanguageSky: I have always used the term "European Portuguese" (to distinguish from "Brazilian Portuguese"), but lately I've seen a couple of sources using "Continental Portuguese" instead.
Is this new? generally preferred? politically fraught in ways I can't identify?
#Greek is awesome. Built-in mnemonic devices. Psi makes the "PS" sound and looks like Poseidon's trident and is the first letter in the word for fish, ψάρι

Happy New Year!
My New Year's Resolution for 2025 is to study Spanish for an hour every day. (Ideally, I'd like to study more, but I want to start with an easily-achievable goal)

Do any of my friends in here know/practice Ancient Greek? I'm starting Attic so that I can better engage with primary sources of interest in their original language. I'd love some buddies to practice with!

There's so much discourse around how terrible duolingo is now, but no one seems to be talking about what we're really missing: learning how to swear. #duolingo #languagesky
Anyone have beginner-level podcasts on YouTube for someone learning Japanese and in need of listening practice outside of anime? lol #languagesky #learnjapanese

This is extremely cool. @ghostyghosty.bsky.social has been posting words of the day from this over on his YT channel lately and it's a really compelling glimpse into the #language and vocabulary of criminals of yore.

Fascinating work on visual illusions.
Interesting to compare with studies of grammatical illusions.

I think one linguist actually from the Miami tribe has classified some languages not as extinct, but rather sleeping.
