Topic: The Chit-Chat Thread

@Snatcher Ah, right. I wouldn't know, where did you hear this?

@TeaCatherine Wile Reddit can be up and down, it was a sub Reddit dedicated to learning languages, then there was videos and comment and they all pretty much said the same thing, I was windering if it was just a personal thing, but I even saw a video where someone tried to learn from it in a specific amount of time, and they also said the same thing.

@TeaCatherine @EllaTheKawaiiNeko I mean from my perspective:

1365 days streak, 35 units in, 52020 exp gained and:
1. Duo teaches you vocabulary pretty well, it has those fast lessons that can help you gain that traction.
2. Duo is horrible with grammar, it doesn't really explain anything and most of what I learnt was from another application called KawaiiNihongo, which I would recommend - it has 1 example for every sentence it teaches you with VERY limited vocabulary so you can see how words work in what stuctures
3. In conclusion, it's best to use duo with some other application or book

@ComfyAko All right, thanks for explaining it's flaws. I would forward the advice to my sister but she'll probably see it before long anyway.
@Snatcher So, it's pretty much a consensus then. That's annoying.

Good morning.
Phew...
Yesterday was very busy for me.
I spent 4.5 hours to finish my 3 paper crafts for my teaching materials due to Friday.
The paper crafts for each grades are different.
Grade 1 = Paper Butterfly
Grade 2 = Pop up card My Truck
Grade 3 = Pop up card Gemini

The students will do crafting during my Art lesson from the paper template I provided, their first job is draw some details on the template then give colors on them. They will start to cut and paste on the next Friday.

@Anti-Matter you've been busy! Which one of the three crafts do you like most?

@Owl1
I personally like the grade 2 paper craft Pop up card My Truck. I drew city street and some beach side for the background with paper truck inside.
The grade 2 students will draw any background they like from the paper template I provided and they will draw any simple pattern for the paper truck.
Actually I like my idea of Pop up card Gemini for grade 3 which I made 2 different version based on gender (Boy version and Girl version so my students will not complain from 1 gender only available) but the paper twins size were pretty small and cutting them was not as easy as they look. I made the template only as half F4 size to make it faster to finish for my students so I don't want to hear any excuses for working slowly.
And for grade 1 Paper Butterfly, I literally colored my Paper Butterfly exactly from the lyrics of Butterfly by Smile.dk (it says Green, Black and Blue make the color in the sky). 🤭

@TeaCatherine Yeah it’s kinda known just to teach you phrases and stuff, like i said you can pretty much use it along side a teacher from what I heard, as it will support.

@Colonel_Mustache Who?

@Colonel_Mustache Doug Walker aka The Nostalgia Critic and owner of Channel Awesome.

@Colonel_Mustache He's getting better as the years go on. Disneycember is always a treat.

Also, a certain Twitch streamer has just been banned (I will not mention their name since children might be lurking)... I don't want to be mean but...

@Colonel_Mustache the name starts with an A... I don't like those people... I never will. The sad thing is the ban probably won't last too long... But one can hope...

I don't want to come off as I hate their guts and I wish them death and evil!!! (I don't btw, I just think they took a wrong path lol) But on a site filled with 9yo's... ya... I'll leave it there.

@Colonel_Mustache because Twitter says so...

I'm well-versed enough to say that A shouldn't be on Twitch... Pretty much all of those folk...

@Colonel_Mustache... Imma go laugh...

@Colonel_Mustache just did.

@Eagly your bottom spoiler broke

@Colonel_Mustache the cake is a lie

Two YouTubers I watch every now and then got into drama

Fun times
