Multiliguists of Lemmy - When speaking Language A and using a word from Language B how do you decide which pronunciation to use?

  • I'm French and get mocked for saying sweatshirt instead of sweetshirt (as French do)... It's a real conundrum.

    • Novel hollow-core optical fiber transmits data 45% faster with record low loss

    Jump

  • But what if you bend the fiber ? "Clearly, such fibres would be less suitable for high fibre-count cables; they would be stiffer and less bendable, both from a mechanical and an optical point of view. For example, their critical bend radius would increase from 4.2 cm to 8.4 cm and 16 cm, respectively, in the examples above (Fig. 4b)" 4.2 cm to 8.4 cm and 16 cm, so maybe only for undersea cables.

    • What book(s) are you reading right now and recommend for others?

  • If you like science fiction, I just finished reading Semiosis by Sue Burke. A story about colonists starting a new life on the planet Pax and their alliances with sentient indigenous plant species. A really great read ! EDIT : grammar

  • The source is a fake website with the only articles being about criticizing Tesla. I am not a fan of Tesla or Musk, to say the least, but this is no better than X’s propaganda…

  • Hi there, Canigou from France. Space exploration enthusiast. I've been mostly lurking on the sub until now but I'd be happy to try out the moderator role !

  • I'm still reading the old school press and listening to the radio. I'm just not on lemmy to read about it AGAIN... On top of that, it's mostly absurd and inaplicable announcements. They crave attention so much, it's painful to listen. Look at Musk's video gaming scheme. Just pathetic...

    EDIT : Found it ! (Damn, Lemmy is awesome 😊)
