Irish and English have different sounds, so it's not possible to accurately represent the sounds of Irish using English spelling. This is obvious for what people call "guttural" sounds, like broad ch, you often see some variation of "chock" or "chokh" or "choh" for teach, but obviously english has no way of spelling that sound. It's not just a few sounds though, Irish has like 30 different consonants. Broad b, slender b, broad d, slender d etc.

PLUS, Irish spelling usually tells you how to pronounce words pretty accurately if you understand the rules, so this kind of respelling isn't necessary.

DOUBLE PLUS, different dialects will pronounce words differently, but the spelling will often accurately represent that for all of them. I say samhradh as samhra with a neutral vowel at the end, because that's how -adh is read in munster*, whereas in ulster they would read it as samhrú because that's how -adh is read there.

*for nouns

"if you're and adult, you cannot under any circumstances interact with minors, because you're a potential pedophile".

i mean, i notice that a lot... minors dni, im minor pls don't interact, etc. it feels so artificial. for me it sounds like...

"if you're a man and/or you have a penis, you cannot under any circumstances interact with women, because you're a potential rapist".

as a minor i used to befriend people older then me. i felt comfortable with them. no one ever harmed me.

as an adult i feel comfortable with people older then me, too.

as a trans man i often present myself online as just a man, without "trans". and ive hot a lot of hate because of my gender. ive been called rapist so much i stopped counting. and yet, i haven't even started T yet.

this is my personal experience, surely. i wanted to share it a little. the claim i wanna make is:

- those "you cannot interact" divides people even more, creates chambers and a lot of unhealthy or just hidden interactions. it makes world even more binary than it is today. it perpetuates ageism, sexism, transphobia and a lot more. but the only thing it doesn't do - help.

what's better: educate your kid or stop them from interacting with the world?

ps.

it also reminded me about prohibition of abortions. "if we ban abortions, people will make more babies".

no. you will make things worse.

(my text is for the person who asked and antis in general)

i wanna remind people, that kids are not just stupid entities everyone has to protect. kids are usually much smarter than average anti thinks. i was fucking smarter in my 10, i knew what's the difference, and now: 13-15 yo are stupid and cannot understand what is reality, what is fiction? lmao what the fuck??? how do you think they read books in schools? how do you think they watch movies? idk marvel movies? so average 14yo will watch some iron man and be like "ohhh he's real!!! and everything in movie is possible irl!"

or they would watch some horror movie and think "oh so killing people is okay!!!"

how the fuck, just how the fuck everything turned into purity culture and total censorship from normal education and thinking about kids as REAL FUCKING PEOPLE?!

publicly shipping kids with ppl too old can actually influence children into thinking that its totally fine for adults to want them romantically/sexually. before you pull out the whole its a 13+ platform that doesn't actually stop people younger than that from being on here. also, 13-15 are still super impressionable ages! anyways your content isn't good for children to see keep it to yourself tyvm

and no kids won't know better to block the proship/comship/ect tags no kids wont have parents that do shit like that for them some kids are on here totally unsupervised so as previously stated you could be apart of a child being influenced into thinking being in a "relationship" with an adult is okay

I know you like the attention of being called fucked up but your problems do not have to be the problems of innocent, impressionable children with totally unrestricted unsupervised access to the internet

I don't have a problem with you, I have a problem with kids thinking this shit is normal

When have I ever said this stuff was normal irl?

I'm sorry, but kids should know this already. They should be taught how to avoid stuff they don't like. When I do shit to allow people to avoid me, I don't know what you want me to do. You're not going to stop me from having fun with fiction in the way I want.
