Pixel count in this tweet feely low.

[-] [email protected] 20 points 1 month ago

Numbery very small

[-] [email protected] 7 points 1 month ago

Is that count feely or numbery?

[-] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

The count of pixels is not representable with numbers.

Anglish is a form of puristic English where all French/Latin derived words (and often others) are removed from English, leaving just the germanic base. A lot of anglish words look like this

[-] [email protected] 7 points 1 month ago

If you'd wanna copy from German, qualitative could be highworthy.
And in anglish, you would've to get rid of "number" as well. Perhaps "tally" or something related is the stand-in (from Dutch taal and german Zahl).

A really great rundown of 'Anglish' is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aMA3M6b9iEY

That whole channel is a goldmine of quirks, curiosities, and facts about English in general.

county makes more sense when paired with feely.

even better. i wouldn't mind seeing scientific papers with the word cunty every now and then

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

Also "cunty" can happen when you ignore "feely" too much.

petition to replace "quantitative" and "qualitative" with "arithmetic" and "characteristic"

[-] [email protected] 12 points 1 month ago

I think the feely people prefer the term "holistic."

[-] [email protected] 11 points 1 month ago

Quantitatititative I always do a double check.

[-] [email protected] 9 points 1 month ago

how do you pronounce that without ending up beatboxing

[-] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago

Theres at least 2 tits in there so just ask a man to read it for you

[-] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago

Until I used spell check I wasn't even 100% sure this spelling was made up

I was taught maths from a guy with a really strong London accent which resulted in both words sounding the same, approximately qua-i-a-ive. Which made the lesson tricky to follow.

[-] [email protected] 9 points 1 month ago

Do I dare ask what "touchy" is in that case? (Heisenberg says I cannot know the answer to all three.)

[-] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

If feely is qualitative, as in having an apparent attribute or non-countable comparative then touchy would be the subjective observer attributing the characteristic or determining the comparative.

In other words, touchy feely.

I'm unsure whether touchy and the objective observer would be different, though the objective observer may be called, "county"

This comment should win Lemmy for the day:-).
