Every time she does the "Tabby" character, I immediately think of a certain far-lefty here.

I'm catchin' your orbit.

My mom is uploading pictures from her Italy trip, and today posted one with the caption, "bobble-head popes for sale in Rome". Sure, there was a bobble-head pope in the picture, but my focus was drawn to the bobble-head buddy Jesus. I want it! My mother will not get the reference, or have known to buy such a souvenir for me.

Is Sowieso a single word, or a common phrase made of "So wie so"? I always wrote it that way in high school and was never corrected. Perhaps my Deutsch teacher was lax on that matter, I don't know.

Regardless, in most languages there are multiple ways to say the same thing when it comes to certain common terms/sentiments. Often the differences are either regional or class in origins.

The way it's presented to me, it's a single word, but we are talking about Duolingo here.

And ja, I am already familiar with the latter. Like using the verb "kennen" to say you are familiar with a person or place, but "wissen" to say you know how to do something.

Or "Nummer" for fixed numbers like addresses, apartments and hotel rooms, versus "Zahle" for arithmetic.

TRP seems as good a place as any.

Can any German speakers/learners explain why there are at least four different ways to say "Anyway/Anyhow" in German?

So far, I've got "Irgendwie" and "Sowieso". To me, "Sowieso" makes the most sense, because "Wieso" means "Why?", which is simply a natural extension of saying a pompous English, "Why so?"

In my mind (and I could be wrong - German thinking has often been a bit backwards for me), with "Sowieso", you're sort of answering the "Why?" question, with "Anyway/how...", "In any case...", "Thus...", "So therefore..."

Nobody on this board is on the "far left" lmao.

That said Contrapoints is good and she sometimes comes on as a guest on a show I do watch.

Here's a random post.

Does anyone else here watch the "ContraPoints" channel on YouTube? Run by a trans-woman who has a PhD (or close to it) in philosophy, and plays all her own characters. Every time she does the "Tabby" character, I immediately think of a certain far-lefty here.

Here's (one of) her critiques of the far left.
