If you were to look at the languages of Asia and Europe, you would see that many languages' word for tea is something like chai (Mandarin/Korean/Portuguese cha, Persian/Russian/Turkish chay, etc). It is repetitive to say "chai tea", even if chai does refer to a specific kind of tea. There is enough of a consistent difference between French tea and American or British tea to denote when tea is French, but nobody thinks thé tea is a legitimate phrase, and nobody would naturally think to use the phrase. There are people that see the French word thé's immediate linguistic proximity to the English word tea and recognize the redundancy there, but Francophones are also generally believed when they acknowledge a poor use of their language. Just because chai's linguistic proximity to the English word tea is less apparent to those who don't consider the presence of exchange between European and Asian languages doesn't mean chai tea isn't not repetitive and dismissive to Indians criticisms on Americans' use of the word chai
your bio says you’re southeast asian so I’m not going to tell you you can’t be critical of foreigners’ use of a word from your region. But also anything I could say to defend my (really harmless I think??) take on chai as a loan word is overshadowed by the fact that it’s now been two days of people reacting to that post and I’m tired. Many words enter other languages for various reasons and the way that other language folds them into itself is shaped by quirks of grammar, human communication, and that word’s purpose in its new language, not conscious disrespect. All languages have loan words in them that are used in ways that seem “strange” or “wrong” to native speakers of the language that word came from.
But I will say that I do not implicitly respect the French, and also if anyone asked me to make them “French style tea” I’d have no idea what they meant.

🇬🇧🇺🇸👨‍❤️‍👨 Tony Blair x George W. Bush fanart 👨‍❤️‍👨🇺🇸🇬🇧
I made a political shipping fanart of British former PM Tony Blair and U.S. former President George W. Bush.
Tumblr media
Top: Coloured pencil and brush marker portrait of British former PM Tony Blair and U.S. former President George W. Bush - 31st March 2024
Tumblr media
Bottom: Picture of British former PM Tony Blair and U.S. former President George W. Bush in their meeting in the White House - 22nd February 2005
I draw them in the same position just like in their meeting at the White House on 22nd February 2005. I could say that Bush was thinking of falling in love with Blair or being friends with him.

Brannigan (1975)
"Well, if it was up to me, I'd get some men out thumping on the streets, passing out some 'e pluribus unum'. That's what ninety percent of police work is today."
"The murder rate in your country, I'm sure, gives ample testimony to your superior police methods."

Reading Helene Hanff's descriptions of 1970s decor to my brother like it's a horror story.
Department stores sell nylon shag bathroom carpeting
"Somehow it gets worse with each word."
I bought my tearose-pink bathroom carpeting
"Ooh. Ouch."
after my friend Richard cut it to fit the floor, he had enough left over to cover the toilet tank
"Augh! No! Make it stop!"

Ellen Whitaker
Tumblr media
Henry Cavill's first public relationship was with British equestrian Ellen Whitaker. The two started dating in 2009 and were engaged in May 2011. However, the engagement was called off in August 2012. According to reports, the couple split due to their busy schedules and long-distance relationship.
Gina Carano

After his split with Whitaker, Cavill was linked to American actress and martial artist, Gina Carano. The two started dating in 2012, and their relationship lasted for around a year before they called it quits in 2014. According to reports, their busy schedules and distance were the main reasons for their breakup.
Kaley Cuoco
Tumblr media
In July 2013, Cavill was linked to American actress Kaley Cuoco, famously known for her role in the popular sitcom "The Big Bang Theory." The two were spotted on a few dates, and their relationship was confirmed by various media outlets. However, their relationship was short-lived and only lasted for a few weeks.
Marisa Gonzalo

Henry Cavill's next rumored relationship was with Marisa Gonzalo, a stuntwoman from Spain. The two were first spotted together in 2014, and rumors of their relationship surfaced soon after. However, the relationship was short-lived, and the couple called it quits after a few months.
Tara King
Tumblr media
In 2015, Cavill started dating Tara King, a British college student who was 13 years younger than him. The couple met at a London nightclub and hit it off instantly. Their relationship was not without controversy, as many criticized the age gap between them. However, the couple remained together for around a year before calling it quits in 2016.
Lucy Cork

After his split with King, Cavill was linked to Lucy Cork, a British stuntwoman whom he met on the set of "Mission: Impossible - Fallout."

Tumblr media
In 2018, Cavill was linked to Swedish actress Rebecca Ferguson, his co-star in "Mission: Impossible - Fallout." The two were rumored to be dating, and they were often seen together at various events. However, neither of them confirmed their relationship, and the rumors eventually died down.

The couple made their relationship public on Instagram in April 2021, and they have been together ever since. They often share pictures of each other on social media and seem to be going strong.
In conclusion, Henry Cavill has had a fair share of relationships throughout his career. While some of his relationships were short-lived, others lasted for a longer period. Despite the ups and downs of his dating life, Cavill has always remained professional and focused on his career. With his talent and good looks, he is undoubtedly one of the most eligible bachelors in Hollywood. We wish him all the best in his future endeavors, both in his personal life and his career.

set up an around-the-world reading challenge for myself, and i've already read books from 15 countries. it may not seem like a lot, but that's more than i expected considering i'm almost exclusively read from american, british, and french authors.

Shirley, I saw the asks about you're having British accent. While I can hear that on your writing, the 'you know' you drop at the end of sentence sounds very Asian to me. Singlish, probably, because I often hear that from people in Singapore and Malaysia (usually they say something like you know laaah~). Sometimes I say it too to emphasize the meaning.
I wish I took sociolinguistic seriously in uni because it's an interisting topic tbh. 😁
sociolinguistics???? that sounds SO cool the me that wished she took linguistics in uni is literally foaming at the mouth 🤣🤣🤣
ive always thought i had a pretty standard norcal/valley girl accent since i grew up in sf and was surrounded basically by valley girls. trying to get 'literally' 'like' 'so' out of my speech is an ongoing battle 😔 i do truncate and lose consonants while speaking, but thats harder to translate over the written word, as is my vocal fry. i adopted all this fancy vocabulary out of PURE spite from the first 2 years of schooling spent in esl 🤣🤣🤣
i picked up 'you know' (and puns) from valley girls stanning kim seokjin for....7....? years.....gods im old. my dad has been told often that he sounds singaporean and everytime he gets so insulted like his hk spirit is crushed x2 super effective damage 🤣🤣🤣 i wonder what he'll think when i tell him ppl think im singaporean chinese 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
yall have me convinced! i hope the next time i open my mouth in london ppl will stop looking at me like i commited unspeakable crimes on their royal language when the american accent IS actually the og british accent smh
