I like that this meme still baited you to replying a year later :D
It’s a meme, there is a sheen of irony on there, which is true to your point : people aren’t going to say joueur animateur, but it’s “based” (futile and arrogant) to put rules that you have to say their joueur animateur. And by going along with what people actually say (estreamer), the RAE is wimpy and beta.
My actual gripe is that the RAE is too beta to include other things to help minority communities, like the “tod@s” stuff to be gender inclusive. It’s in fucking use, why include other things but not that?
and the exact same meme too, by you… i am such a predictable creature :(
anyways, yea i do get the meme, and i agree with u about the RAE… and now that i look at it my reply is a bit tone-deaf… i just hate the french language establishment so much lol, it could actually do interesting stuff to help evolve the french language but instead it proposes ludicrously out of touch things (i know i’ve said it before but acolyte des illustres???) and polices people’s language (especially in quebec as you’ve pointed out in other places)
i’m so mad tho. u baited me and i bit like a fucking fish :(
also, I’m sorry I hurt your feelings. It wasn’t my intention to bait you to replying… at the start. But I did enjoy noticing you paid attention to it again without revisiting the thread or having a certain sense of… deja vu.
This made me laugh for like 2 mins and a literal tear came out of my eye. Thank you for that reaction.
Last year I thought “acolyte des illustres” was just a turn of phrase for pretensious people. I didn’t realise you meant they use that phrase instead of follower.
I did very much enjoy that exchange as the mutual semi-intelligibility between romance languages, I thought looking it up too hard would have ruined it.
I still wish they would be more bold with introducing much needed changes to the languages. As a shitty polyglot, I do get frustrated that there’s too much english in the other languages when I try to speak it with friends and family. I know “leptop” is easier to say in turkish, but I want “dizüstü bilgisayarı” since it’s the actual turkic fucking word for it.
