shina, a transliterated version of China, was adopted by fascist Japan in lieu of using the Chinese endonym and is a racial slur nowadays though China itself doesn’t have any negative connotations

Japanese butthurt at china is countered almost completely by the presence of meiling from touhou project. Also to see how schizo the indian response is this article is a decentish summary. https://archive.li/3AZ0q https://www.scmp.com/week-asia/poli...-religious-card The actual bureaucratic state did it's regular thing of saying terrorism is bad but palestine should be free. The hooting chuds doing "israel is killing da muslims" were doing that during operation cast lead too. Its just that theres now a lot of indians posting online.

ikanreed posted:Nah, 生 still means life or birth in most of the words it's in, like "pre" means before in English, but the pronunciation is based on the actual conversational Japanese for those words, which isn't based on Chinese like the (kanji) writing system is. It's kind of even better, because you get to see 🍆 on the page and decide on the fly, pure context vibes, whether it's pronounced "eggplant", "mad-apple", "aubergine", or "dick". tractor fanatic posted:Right, but nihon and yamato have different meanings, but are also probably used in a lot of similar contexts, then writing both as "日本" seems really weird. Also, IIRC hiragana and katana are more modern inventions, so how would we even know that there existed wildly different pronunciations of 日本? The point is that the social structure that pushed it wanted to say that there was no difference--"China draws these pictures to represent our land, our land is all ours and all of us, we call ourselves this, ergo they're the same thing simple as". All subsequent ones have differed for one reason or another. "More modern" is also true but a bit deceptive, both are attested to the early 800s, no later than the system for diacritical marks on Chinese to ease learning, and both are heirs to a less standardized system of using non-cursive Chinese to represent both words and Japanese phonetics that sprung up within a generation or two of regular contact with China. That earlier system, the obsolete first form of Japanese writing, is the key here though; one of the earliest surviving examples, a book of poetry, contains a verse that must be in 5/7 meter but also reads Man'yoshu poem #475; use as words which the reader must know as representing Japanese bolded, and Chinese words used to phonetically approximate Japanese italicized posted:大日本 Other people can explain better than I why in Chinese this comes out as dropped Scrabble tiles, but also in Chinese it's no meter at all while if taken as very early Japanese it reads perfectly as standard gloss posted:大日本 spoken reading posted:おほ*やまと *Japanese of the time did not accept two bare vowels in sequence, and many native diphthongs were once 1p2 before becoming 1f2, 1h2, and eventually 1(unvoiced)2. All p at the time that did not become unvoiced in this change is now h. Nippon Gakujustsu Shinkokai translation, still the academic standard posted:Now that the spring has come E: "だいにっぽん" is not an option there because that would be considered for poetic purposes (and probably pronounced at the time) "だいにちぽん" six morae and out of meter. "だいにほん" is not because にほん only arose later, as a result of those changes in the consonant which is now H and became completely unable to naturally geminate.

Before cspam posters thoughtlessly insult western computer touchers maybe they should consider they could be insulting honest workers trying to uphold juche.

North Korea had two failed satellite launches before Kim and Putin's big meeting. It was predicted that space rocket would one of the military techs NK wanted assistance from Russia. And NK put a satellite in space just 2 months later? That was fast.

In Brazil, Lula has been condemning the attacks on Gaza but I dont think they would go as far as to completely sever ties with Israel But meanwhile Israel as been courting our fascist ex-president again so that might eventually get a reaction
