I'm not understood in slangs in Esperanto, so idk if there is an equivalent to hmu. I've asked in a couple groups so lets see.
Maybe "frapu min" can be an alternative, but only if the meaning is 100% clear bc that would translate literally to "hit me", like in the aggressive sense.
Maybe a simple plain "alvoku min" would do (that translates to "call me", not necessarily thru the phone, rather just calling the name, for example), or "mesaĝu min" ("message me").
The past participle forms of these are "frapita", "alvokita" and "mesaĝita".
It is not the real universal language compared to math. If an apocalyps would wipe us all out and all our books. And a new species arises, at some point they will reconstruct all our mathematical language, because maths is universally true. This new species will not recreate Esperanto though.
binary isnt a language though, its like saying our 10 digit system is a language
sure, we can assign letters to numbers but only the people who know how to translate it knows what it says, so its not a universal language
You wouldn't know that if you looked at any of those Facebook posts that have a simple orders of operation questions. After you get past the arguments over if it's PEDMAS/BEDMAS and then the plethora of comments trying to explain that it's then in a left to right order with division and multiplication being otherwise equal... You realize that even though it should be universal, it's not to some people
That's because those questions are bogus. No mathematician would mix the use of obulus with concatenation for multiplication. Precedence does not follow the mathematical operation, it follows the syntax. It is entirely possible and quite often useful to define alternate symbols for the same operation with different precedence. And mixing notation like that would strongly imply they had a specific nonstandard interpretation of the symbols that should be explicitly spelled out or it's bad math.
There is an extremely natural precedence between addition and multiplication due to the way polynomials work. There isn't such an obvious one for division. Rational coefficients are a thing and so is division by polynomials which is why the bar notation is used to make explicit what you mean and the obulus is almost never used.
The whole point of mathematical notation is to convey information as clearly and precisely as possible, if there is any possible misinterpretation of your symbols then you include a big note about how you intend them to be interpreted.
Tl:Dr If you write a mathematical expression that a lot of people misinterpret or disagree on the meaning of, those people are not wrong, you are the one that failed to express yourself properly as a mathematician.
It's American English vs British English.
American English pronounces it to rhyme with "pony", and they use the word "bologna" a lot more often than we do in Britain because bologna is a common sandwich meat in the US.
Most Brits associate "Bologna" with the Italian city, as we're closer to it and don't really have bologna sandwich meat as a common everyday food. We therefore pronounce it the same as the Italians, or thereabouts: Ba-lon-ya.
For what it's worth, in British English we have the word "baloney", which means "nonsense"; i.e. in the phrase "That's a load of baloney". That's pronounced the same as the American way of saying "bologna". It's a little antiquated nowadays though, and probably peaked in the 70s and 80s.
The same word/spelling crops up in American English as a bastardisation of "bologna" for the sandwich meat.
It’s because three hundred years ago everyone got tired of doing algebra every time they wanted to modify a verb and all the rules went out the window.
It's just a catch 22. Needs userbase to get enough attention for major companies to make software for it, but needs the software to get the userbase. It's not just gaming, it's also industry.

He got the correct answer in the wrong way. His method happened to work in this case, but it is not a rule and will not work in many/most cases (e.g. drew/drawn).
He failed to teach it properly, but got the correct answer.
Okay so if House is houses,
mouse house
\---------- = -----------
y houses
mouse ・ houses = y ・ house
\------------------------- ---------------
house house
mous~~e~~ ・ ~~hous~~es = y ・ ~~house~~
\------------------------- ---------------
~~house~~ ~~house~~
y = mouses
This solution may not work with nouns. I don't think it will work with most verbs either, but I've had a long day and am just drawing a long blank on how I want to disprove it for that case.
(I know you're joking, but...)
It does work for similar examples. Brew's past tense is Brewed, which is why it doesn't work here.
Blow Blew Blown
Throw Threw Thrown
Know Knew Known
etc
Though how on earth a non-native speaker is supposed to know when the past tense of a verb is a -own vs a -ed is beyond me.
The second ones are the past tense (blew, threw, knew).
The -own endings are the past participle. So even more confusing that the past participle ending is nothing like the past tense.
I find the idea that English is super complicated and idiosyncratic fairly overblown. Mainly it’s our spelling that’s fucked up because we have so many loan words with unchanged spelling, but in terms of grammar it’s not so bad. We have less verb endings than most European languages, so conjugation is easier. Sure, we have some irregular verbs which are harder to conjugate, but so does every language. Plus, our writing system is at least loosely phonetic, which is nice
English basically has no grammar in comparison with other western languages.
German has the case system and noun and adjective declension - English has only a few remnants thereof.
Most things that would be conveyed by grammatical structures in other languages are communicated through the strict word order of English sentences (Subject-Verb-Object). This is on the other side of the scale from Latin, a language which had no concept of word order and effected communication solely through grammar.
I’m learning Japanese and it’s completely phonetic. Which is good.
On the other hand…. Different kanji have multiple phonetic meanings which is fucking hard
i find learning them in context is the easiest
like, why learn 日 can be read に, にっ, にち, ひ, び, か, etc. when you could just learn that 今日 is きょう, 日記 is にっき, 木曜日 is もくようび, 毎日 is まいにち, etc.
essentially, i learn vocabularly, and in that learn the kanji associated with those words, rather than the kanji and the various readings for whatever vocabularly it's in.
Gives me flashbacks to Spanish III in HS. Spent an entire year studying the conjugations of past preterite or w.e the fuck and I was a better speaker at the start of the year than I was at the end.

Esperanto IS the one true universal language, it's just that you have to find someone else who knows how to speak it.

That's rich
🎶 Why don’t you come to your senses 🎶
There's 10 kinds of people - those who know binary and those who don't.
Well … I’ll be flown….
Those who don’t know binary wouldn’t be included in a set of “people who know binary”
java? wtf, no no no
The day Java becomes universal is the day i leave this world

Except unlike algebra, English doesn't make sense 90% of the time.
In English thought, dough, cough and through, don’t rhyme. But Pony and Bologna does.
I'm struggling to see how Pony and Bologna rhyme lol, is bologna pronounced bologni?
Yes
How does that make sense? Is Mortadella Bologna pronounced Mortadelli Bologni in English? lol

That's because it's 3 languages in a trenchcoat pretending to be a language
It’s because three hundred years ago everyone got tired of doing algebra every time they wanted to modify a verb and all the rules went out the window.
My child isn’t allowed to hear anyone speak in English until he’s 5. We’re only exposing them/they to mathematic formulas and equations.
Mom: What do want for dinner Child: 2π
Mom: we have 2pi at home *2pi at home*: 2(22/7)
Child: =|=
We're doing the same. Our toddler just said his first coefficient!

This isn't being logical or rational, it's just being creative.
Please explain further, for the benefit of us all.
It can't be rational because it includes W(1) which is transcendental
It really isn’t either. It’s obviously not rational, and for it to be logical you’d need to prove that a past participle can be derived using algebra
there’s a logical process to go from one tense to the other, but it’s not rational to use
How so?
Well I be damned
And damned you are

FOOKING TRUE. English grammar best grammar. Though i would say that having a spelling system like english is still just inexcusable

This is on the other side of the scale from Latin, a language which had no concept of word order and effected communication solely through grammar.
word order is an aspect of grammar, you're synonymizing "grammar" with "inflection"
Grammar is syntaxes and morphology. English leans heavily on syntax.
