If I saw that in any other context I would have assumed it was a low budget special effect--mostly due the spray of rainbow sparkles when the module separates from the base.
i would think some of our taboo words that a re borderline illegal and I am scared to even type the first letter of with asterixes because i am on a work computer
If I could change one thing about Duolingo, it would be to allow the user to turn off all the gamification completely. I don't care about fake internet gems, knowing how to speak Chinese (or whatever) is it's own reward, so stop wasting my time with bs!
Nevertheless, Duolingo is an amazing and convenient starting point for unlocking the learning of new languages.
Make your way through the entire course as fast as you can, while also listening to music, talking to people, talking to chatGPT, reading books, etc in the target language as soon as you can manage.
Protip: learn your 3rd language using your second as the language of instruction.
Thou and Thee are nominative and objective cases. Same for You and Ye.
The formality/informality distinction is between You/Ye and Thou/Thee.
Plural 2nd person used to formally address a single individual came to English from French, thanks to the Norman Conquest.
French, I think, inherited it from Latin, and the custom of addressing the emperor with the plural.
After a while it became rude to address people with the informal 2nd person singular.
By the time of the King James Bible, iirc, English had already switched to universal "you", and "thou" was brought back in order to indicate where the source text had used a singular versus a plural.
"What is thy bidding, my master" is therefore foreshadowing of later insubordination.
