English shows US flag
I once saw a language selector with two Chinese flags for “Chinese (traditional)” and “Chinese (simplified)” and also, with the British and American flags, “English (traditional)” and “English (simplified)”. That got a good chuckle out of me.
Thanks for passing the chuckle along.
Simplified is good. It’s a language not a secret code. Idk why the UK is so damn proud of their vestigial U in “colour”.
English is a loan word from AngloSaxon that translates to “Stolen Noises”.
English doesn’t “borrow” from other languages: it follows them down dark alleys, knocks them over, and goes through their pockets for loose grammar and valuable vocabulary.

and brazilian isn’t a thing
Português do Brasil is a thing and distinctive but not independent of Portuguese
yeah, i meant its not a language, and i thought by “not a thing” on a reply to a comment talking about languages, the “thing” could be understood as “language”
For anyone coming to the comments confused, it’s sounds. So if you live in a state of silent phone…
I still don’t even know what it is supposed to sound like. I’ve never seen whatever show that is.
It’s just the different ways they do mouth sounds.
OK, but what is the image reference? They are all stills
It’s a gif, with sound.
what is this newfangled sorcery
Right? I still expect my gifs to be silent.
Yeah. I don’t see anything but still images from 3 accounts. This is a png for me.
That sucks mate
They embedded it incorrectly and/or Imgur is a piece of shit. Try this or this:
or the YT Shorts link provided elsewhere
Thank you, I was so confused.
I think it still works though. It’s just super surreal.
