Since the site pretty much died for a week, this seem like the best way to get some more interest. I've already drafted the first translation golf post, I just need an idea for what the source text should be. (more) |

Answer | — |
A: Translation Golf (draft stage) Ground Rules (draft) This is loosely based off of the original translation golf on StackExchange, but modified to fit a wider range of languages. Goal: Translate a given text using the minimum number of characters 1. The translation must be accurate 2. Unless otherwise stated, the transla... (more) |

@curiousdannii https://english.stackexchange.com/questions/1047/which-is-correct-you-and-i-or-you-and-me None of the examples should use "me", *that* would be ungrammatical. (more) |

Agree with everything except the "host on Meta" part - Q&A would make it more visible, so I think we should start there (and hey, if they check out the other Q&A category questions, all the better) (more) |

Question | — |
"Us neither" - Is it valid? Recently, I read the phrase "Us neither", and for some reason it irked me. I don't know why though, since I can't immediately say what exactly is wrong with it. Logically, "Me neither" and "Neither have I" are equivalent, so why would "Us neither" not be similar to "Neither have we"? No matter how I ... (more) |

@JirkaHanika I didn't get your mention (probably since there was a comma at the end of it). Personally, I think putting it in the main Q&A is fine for now (and we get more visibility). If it's popular, we can always move it. (more) |

@fedorqui I can't get in contact with Hanika, so I'm going to just give the go-ahead myself. Feel free to do it when you want to (more) |

Looks fun - if the other mod (Hanika) is good with it too, and we get some more interest, feel free to post a first challenge in Q&A (we can always create the category later if it gets popular) (more) |

An interesting concept. Could you link some of those posts so we can get a better picture of what it's about? (more) |

Question | — |
Wiki posts are here; do we want to use them? We now have a "Wiki" post type Essentially, wiki posts are articles, but with a lower bar for editing; > Unlike with other post types, anybody with the Participate Everywhere privilege can edit the post directly, rather than having to go through suggested edits. My question to the community... (more) |

@curiousdannii English doesn't have an *inflection* for the future tense, but it can definitely express the future (using the auxiliary verb 'will'). If you read the question, you would see that that is what the asker is asking about - why not use the 'will' construction? (more) |

Pinned this so that more people will see it; we still haven't come to a consensus yet (more) |

Taken even another way, "If you'll be around tomorrow" sounds like "If you plan to be around tomorrow" while "If you are around tomorrow" sounds like "If you happen to be around tomorrow". (more) |

@msh210 Then just a regular explanation? It's that way because "when" refers to the time the action takes place. If you say "I'll eat when I'll be hungry", it means you will eat at the time when being hungry is still in the future (which doesn't really make sense). Taken another way, "present" is rel...

Are you asking for some sort of intuitive explanation (beyond an answer just saying "That's how English grammar is"?) (more) |
