Without the ‘é’, it says that it doesn’t speak “groins”.
We can correct it in our minds, but as a Mexican scholar explained, these marks in Spanish should not be erased in other languages as they are quite important. It is the difference between “¡Feliz año nuevo!” (Happy New Year!) and “¡Feliz ano nuevo!” (Happy new anus!).
I do notice that in Spain people are more and more omitting the accents because they are annoying to type (with the exception of the ñ which has its own key on Spanish keyboards, besides the ‘l’, where the ; is on a US keyboard).
The other ones are kinda less important anyway and really, people know what you mean anyway. They don’t really think you are wishing them a happy anus (or maybe they do want your anus to be happy in the new year of course, which is nice 🥰)
But yeah it confuses auto translators, because sí (yes) and si (if) is often confused by them. When you’re reading spanish you will automatically discern this based on context, the accent doesn’t really matter and it’s hard to see anyway. On most screens it’s like 1 pixel of difference. It does tend to confuse people relying on translators though :)
Yes, and also mainly to feed a appetite of tv/movie comedies like C’est Pas Moi, C’est L’autre (2004) or OSS:117 (2006) {that one is a 007 parody}. And b-side actresses like Caroline Dhavernas. And to get that candy that tastes like soap.
For me it’s sports, 7,5h of uninterrupted sleep, a healthy relationship with my eating habits and I once in a while tell myself that I’m enough and that I believe in myself.
I’m the last panel, the void is lying in order to avoid answering for its earlier lies. Pretending you don’t speak English is a fairly common tactic, though I suspect more so in jokes/as a joke than seriously.
It would be cool to have some Lemmy servers from some more obscure countries, like, I don’t know, Mali, or something. Do they have any interesting top level domain names?
