STOP SAYING "GRINDED"
GRINDED ISN'T A REAL WORD
A GAME CAN NOT BE "GRINDED".
A GAME CAN EITHER BE GROUND OR GRUNDLED

i grinded on your mom last night homosexual
I can just about imagine the butthead laugh as you wrote this
True he is probably massively overweight and wears skirts.
I catched all the pokemons.
You can't catch 'em all.
no one says grinded, the correct sentence would be "I was grinding" for past tense or "I'm grinding for present.
zoomers will be the death of meaning
>the correct sentence would be "I was grinding"
This. Same with Black folk using the word "addicting" instead of "addictive".
It's just a product of English being a fairly modular language that lets anyone make up words as they go. If I called you a gayotron, you'd know exactly what I meant, despite such a word not appearing in any dictionary.
Yeah, but is it gay-o-tron or homosexualron?
Both work depending on the effect you are going for.
God I love English. What a great language to become the global standard.
Aren't all languages like that?
No, shit up.
Nope. Very few languages allow for such freedom of expression.
Monolingual here, is this actually true? Is it that rare to be able to smash together "offensive word" + "silly suffix" to playfully insult someone?
Yep, we English speakers invented it and no other language is capable of doing so without having their language license revoked.
Don't give me a sarcastic reply, nigwig
I speak two languages
>is this actually true
No.
And "homosexualron" is a pretty weak example, it's just two roots smashed together, many (if not all) languages can have that.
Oh wait, "tron" is actually a suffix in English.
But the point still stands.
>playfully
Calling someone a homosexual doesn't really sound playful to me
But I like to playfully call people Black folk online THOUGH
Black personhomosexual is my favourite one
> Is it that rare to be able to smash together "offensive word" + "silly suffix" to playfully insult someone?
funfact english is the only language that allows for expletive infixation like abso-fricking-lutely.
Hillbilly Jim, in American English, that is acceptable. Addictive would be used by an authority figure. These dang ol' kids saying butt instead of buttocks, hooey does that burn my britches!
I ground myself to level 60
that doesn't sound healthy

Unfortunately for you there are billions of ESLs
I'll never understand why Americans are personally offended at the existence of ESLs, especially when they commit "mistakes" that only happen because your language is garbage and has inconsistent rules (the past tense of "grind" being a prime example of that)
An ESL, by definition, speaks two or more languages. Even if it's only two, it's already one more than 99% of Americans
t. swede and fluent in four languages
If you actually speak four languages then you know that nearly every language has inconsistent rules and irregular verbs and that English is hardly unique in that aspect. A quick google search shows that Swedish has well over 100 itself. You might as well call any language "garbage" by that definition, it's a natural product of linguistic evolution.
Swedish is a garbage language, I don't deny this. But English is one hundred times worse. Do you have any idea how difficult it is to learn English pronunciation? There are no rules whatsoever, it is all arbitrary and on a word by word basis.
But the point of my post isn't even to call English garbage, it's to point how moronic people are for hating on ESLs when they get something wrong in a language, ESPECIALLY irregular verbs wrong, because how the frick are you supposed to get this right at first? Just never use a word until you have looked it up in a dictionary so that you don't offend the pride of basement dwellers? Please explain to me how this makes sense.
complaining about english is just another brownoid cope about how the british empire dabbed all over your for all of history and took whatever word they wanted from you
You are an illiterate monkey if this is what you have to say about my post
you are still brown
>American calling Scandinavians brown
eop has shit reading comprehension, many such cases.
>eop
wrong board Black person gay
Oh I agree with you that it's moronic, I just think calling English a "garbage" language because of issues found in basically every other language on Earth isn't right either. English does have issues with spelling ("ough" is a particularly infamous combo) but in terms of irregulars it's really not that remarkable at all and pretty much directly comparable to other major European languages like French and German.
>Do you have any idea how difficult it is to learn English pronunciation?
You're moronic
What's so hard about it? The "th" sound and? What else?
NTA but I think Dutch is a pretty hard language. My cousin from the Netherlands is dating a girl named “Pleun” (I think that’s how you spell it) and trying to pronounce her name properly proved to be really hard, and kind of embarrassing.
Though through trough tough
Weird eight height

English has context-sensitive pronunciations for combinations of letters that don't have concrete rules.
Funny that doing is pronounced doing and not doing.
Lol yeah it do be that way sometimes. There was a comedian who had a whole bit on how much this confused him when he was a kid. Like trying to distinguish between the plural form of Ox and Box.
>boxen
Kek that always cracks me up.
>context-sensitive pronunciations
Every single word you just listed is spelled differently, you stupid Black person gorilla, what "context sensitive pronunciation" are you talking about, moron?
>concrete rules
No language has "concrete rules", wienersucker.
English is fricking SIMPLE, it has WAY less difficult details than MANY other languages
>trough
No one uses that word
>never heard about the children of the trough
>No one uses that word
Don't use the piss trough at sports events?
>went to a gay bar once
>piss trough with mirrors overhead so you can check out each others peckerwood
gays have it pretty easy when it comes to sex.
Are you baiting or are you genuinely too stupid to understand the post you're replying to? The spelling of the words you just referenced IS the context that changes pronunciation without concrete rules. There's no concrete rhyme or reason for the pronunciations of the same letter or combination of letters (ough, ei, and a) in those words, it just boils down to "memorize the fact that tough and cough are different, but know that 'c' and 't' don't inherently affect pronunciations in other words."
>No language has "concrete rules"
Phonetic languages do?
>No one uses that word
You are the dumbest poster in this thread.
English is worse because of scale. Since there are many thousands of words in English, the inconsistencies are more noticeable. There's stupid shit about English I don't even think about or pay attention to until someone learning the language asks about it, and then I find myself wondering why certain shit is the way it is with this language, too.
>Americans are personally offended at the existence of ESLs
Honestly way less than other languages are, in my experience. Americans are fairly used to hearing broken English IRL, and broken English is often fairly intelligible. Whereas if you speak broken Chinese, Russian, or a Romance language, people will just stare at you like you're an extraterrestrial. Even the most rural bumfrick towns in America have some Spanish-speakers and maybe even something more exotic like Vietnamese or Czech. That's just the nature of America. People online are usually venting about dealing with it all the time or just want to be mad about Indians scam-calling our grandmas.
I can't speak for Russian/Chinese but in my experience in Europe people do not care if you speak a broken Romance language. Europe has dozens of languages and no one is entitled enough to expect everyone else on Earth to speak THEIR language perfectly.
Except the French. Frick the French.
kek
I was screaming "French" in my head til I got to the end of your post.
What's funny is that the French-speaking Belgians and Swiss are super chill about you not having perfect grammar. It's literally JUST the French that throw a shitfit.
tbh it's easy to see why they are like that once you visit paris
>every single fricking thing you learned in a history book, all gathered there within 200 meters of each other
I'd have an ego too, you're pretty much the protagonist of humanity
Yeah but they haven't done frickin anything of particular note for the world in centuries by now. They genuinely operate on the "peaked in high school" mentality.
pls be nice. theyre coping hard with paris becoming a wasteland of maghrebi settlers
>every single fricking thing you learned in a history book
Not even 1% of relevant history was centered around France.
By that logic, Greeks would demand worshipping from everyone in the planet, given how most of what we know of our oldest history comes from them.
I wonder if they paid the debnt.
>French people are literally so haughty that they want to completely avoid loan words wherever possible because it taints the sanctity of their precious language
What a bunch of c**ts, honestly.
ザット・サウンズ・プリーティ・リーズナブル、アクチュアリ
Well; everyone's got to excel at something, right?
The French, for whatever reason, chose to excel at being chauvinist elitist dickholes.
Used to hold the world record for the huffing of their own farts as well, afaik.
But, well-- ... then the Bay Area happened in the US ...
You type like a twitter Black person. have a nice day.
morons will meet parisians once and then act like they know french people. You deserve nothing.
the funniest thing is most of them can communicate in english but choose not to. if you can introduce yourself in french and explain that you don't really know the language and would rather talk english, most of them will comply
ESL posts are usually trying to communicate the most moronic ideas you've ever heard, the fact that the language is broken just makes them even more obnoxious
>English speaking board
>hurr why does nobody like ESLs?
>I'll never understand why Americans are personally offended at the existence of ESLs
It’s not them being ESLs, it’s them making 0/10 posts while simultaneously being unable to use the language properly. I imagine even if they could type their shitty opinion in their own language it’d still be annoying.
Calling them ESL is just a quick way to shut them up (sometimes).
something profoundly disturbs me when brown esls mutilate english as hard as they do
You wouldn't get it. How often do you see people mangling Swedish? I can guarantee it's nowhere near as often as English speakers do. Being the lingua franca is a curse.
Hello, American. In Europe everyone speaks a broken version of each other's language. We have so many languages here it is humanly impossible to learn all of them to a perfect degree. Some countries have 3 or even 4 official languages and not even their own citizens are masters of every official language.
It is only Americans and the French that flip out when someone commits a tiny grammar mistake.
I should have said "online" given the context of griping about ESL posts, but fair enough. Then again, we probably get more IRL too, not only because of all the blacks and immigrants in the country but because of a billion jeets SAARing it up (at the very least).
Honestly for me it's not about them mangling English, it's 50% about being a nitpicky butthole because it's fun and 50% about making third worlders feel unwelcome because they never contribute anything of worth to any discussion. If I catch a few innocents with a few stray bullets then so be it.
English speaking website. Learn to speak English or go somewhere else. Your insistence on posting here is tacit admission that your native tongue is fricking useless.
PS
The most common ESL mistake I see is using "on" in place of literally any other preposition, which is a massive error.
>"on"
It's probably because in their native language it's actually "on" and they're just translating something literally in their heads
For example, I really always want to say "on the streets" and some pedantic wienersuckers might say WELL, THAT'S ONE WAY TO SAY IT, but that's A LIE and "on the streets" never fricking works out
bork bork bork
Aside from Spanish there really isn't a reason to learn another language in America. You don't realize how big the North American continent is. It's filled with every geographical landform on the planet and has a host of it's own dialects like Cajun for instance. Being European is kind of cheat mode because you're surrounded by other foreign language speakers and traveling to other countries is like a 40 minute drive

I actually comes from usage in specific contexts like rail grinding in skateboarding and other street sports.
In sailboat racing a "grinder" is a position where you operate the manual winches, doing the same thing repeatedly throughout the course of the race. It's a tough job.
Here's a video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sFvkApBcG0U
There a few different winches, like the one I posted earlier and the front/back-directional one in the video.
Being a grinder fricking sucks because your job is never done and it's tiring as hell
I thought is was an evolution of the phrase "nose to the grindstone".

>I need to get one of the custom ones for my cutco knives.
Doesn't cutco sharpen them for free if you send them in?
That, or you can have a guy come out is my understanding. But I also expect the poor guy to be trying to make a sale the whole time based on when I was doing it. I'd rather just have the tool for myself so I can sharpen weekly rather than call a guy out every month giving him false hope for more sales.

>anon passed on barely legal pussy because his fricked childhood made him a MILFgay
I hole-hardedly agree, but allow me to play doubles advocate here for a moment. For all intensive purposes I think you are wrong. In an age where false morals are a diamond dozen, true virtues are a blessing in the skies.
We often put our false morality on a petal stool like a bunch of pre-Madonnas, but you all seem to be taking something very valuable for granite. So I ask of you to mustard up all the strength you can because it is a doggy dog world out there.
Although there is some merit to what you are saying it seems like you have a huge ship on your shoulder. In your argument you seem to throw everything in but the kids Nsync, and even though you are having a feel day with this I am here to bring you back into reality.
I have a sick sense when it comes to these types of things. It is almost spooky, because I cannot turn a blonde eye to these glaring flaws in your rhetoric. I have zero taller ants when it comes to people spouting out hate in the name of moral righteousness.
You just need to remember what comes around is all around, and when supply and command fails you will be the first to go.
Make my words, when you get down to brass stacks it doesn't take rocket appliances to get two birds stoned at once. It's clear who makes the pants in this relationship, and sometimes you just have to swallow your prize and accept the facts.
You might have to come to this conclusion through denial and error but I swear on my mother's mating name that when you put the petal to the medal you will pass with flying carpets like it’s a peach of cake.

Why is there no "casing point"?
I know it's a copypasta, but I will always love this for the sheer number of horrible puns it contains.

You ESLs could just make your own native Ganker that speaks your own language and you would never have to use the dreaded english language ever again PLUS you would be rid of those evil Americans you hate so much since they are all dumb and can't speak your superior language.

Why would I. By saying grinded I am slowly updating and bending your language to fit my rules instead.

I'm sure they're using the right word. You're just using the wrong image.
"To grind" in the gayming sense is a slang to begin with, it doesn't have to follow the rules of the real "to grind" verb
They're two completely different things, if the majority of people adopt a linguistic exception over the rule then it becomes the rules
Your linguistic major doesn't mean absolute shit no matter how much you scream, people make the language, it's not the language that makes itself
It's funnier when you realize the slang originates from the phrase "on the grind" where it's used as a noun instead of a verb. OP's argument was flawed from the start.
Language is fake and gay. If enough people say a made up word, it becomes a real word.

And all irregular verbs should be abolished as well. Not that I care now that I learned most of them, but I still want to write something like "readed" and "cutted" to specify the past tense. I READ THAT BOOK YESTERDAY, holy shit, that sounds moronic.

Reminds me of when that caster for professional League of Legends used the word "Smote/Smoted" for the first time live, and the other casters were like "Wtf does that mean?!" And he was like "Well ACKSHUALLY it's the correct plural term for smiting something!" It was hilarious because the game, at that point, had been out for like 5-6 years, and nobody had ever heard someone use that word in the game.
I hate how you can't open the catalog anymore without seeing a thread made by a thirdworlder who doesn't grasp the syntax for questions or how to use words like "does" or "how".
