  3. #Ceasefire” is one of those #nouns that’s almost always preceded by a particular #adjective. In this case, “fragile.”

  4. Fun fact: a group of Crows is called a 'Murder' but a Group of Ravens is called an 'Unkindness' or a 'Conspiracy.'

  5. Here are some examples of nouns to use for speeches or writing that can be helpful for all ages. #speech #writing #nouns

  6. I see/treat the words #friend & #love as #verbs more than #nouns.
    That alone has made a huge difference in how I respect & honour both - as personally chosen living actions.

  8. I’m not super confident with my #Dota2 predictions for the playoffs.

    Going into #ti12 I was sure #GaminGladiators and #TeamLiquid would be top 3 but everything has been shaken up so far. #nouns is for sure an upset; #Talon with the comeback after the mess of day 1. For now my finals predictions are #TeamSpirt vs #LGD. Let’s see how it goes!

  12. @ThePlant , if people all the (and some ) in their

    and then you'd just follow the hashtags you like

  13. On the vogue #word “weaponize,” a #metaphor for the word “politicize,” and the birth of other words with the I Z E ending that changed them from #nouns to #verbs #language #rhetoric

  15. Several writers encountered recently use strange suffixes for converting a verb to a noun. One writer uses -ance for all (e.g. "agreeance", and isn't that painful). Author of the current bedside reading has a related problem with adjectival forms, as in "educative material". I wonder what spellchecker they're using?

  16. @retsel It's usually more effective to #hashtag #nouns as opposed to adverbs and verbs. Think of them as a way of defining a category for a post, too, like #fediverse and #welcome in this case 👋

  17. God, it’s really happening, isn’t it? Fine — an #introduction, since we may be here a while:

    I’m Brendan. I live in #WestPhilly, where I freelance as a #Chinese to English #translator while looking for a better way of keeping ribs from meeting spine. I escaped a #PhD and somehow still enjoy early modern Chinese fiction / #明清小說, as well as #cats, #villanelles, and a wide variety of #nouns. When I see #hashtags interspersed with text, I automatically read them in an obnoxious #JerryLewis voice.

  19. There’s something ouroboros-like in the nounification of the verb verbify into the word verbification.
