I’ve seen several dentists for a similar situation. The last one said that if they go by the book they should remove it. However if it’s all under the gum, not causing any pain or getting infected, then they’d recommend letting it be but getting x-rays every two years to monitor the situation, since otherwise it’s quite a proper surgery.

Should be easy enough to identify https://www.theguardian.com/books/2025/feb/25/how-to-spot-a-fascist-the-umberto-eco-way

What would you expect a really good margherita pizza to look like?

Counterpoint: even an hour out from Oslo there are people relying on Starlink

Depends, is an imaginary angle comparable to a 45 degree angle?

There is also sunset 🌅

There’s also a faster sense of done-ness with a phone call: the conversation is almost always over at the end of the call, whereas with something like text it can take ages because it’s so spread out.

What time was that? (genuinely curious)

Yes that’s a good example too! (I don’t know of any language where that’s a possibility but I agree it’s similar)

The spaces are used for a reason

That’s the thing though - my hypothesis is that it’s based on what one is familiar with. There are languages/scripts where spaces don’t indicate word boundaries (e.g. Chinese), or that are rather agglutinative (e.g. Finnish), or somewhere in between (like German), or on the opposite end of the spectrum you have Hindi/Devanagari where a space and an overline marks a word. Totally understandable that it feels perhaps rot13-ish due to unfamiliarity but I would be surprised if native users of those languages share that sentiment.

German infamously has a lot of long compound words but for those who struggle with them I have a question (I’m curious and there’s no judgment here - I totally understand that it’s hard): Canyoureadthissentenceeventhoughtherearenospaces? What about Orangecatsittingonamat? If yes, is it difficult in German due to having a smaller vocabulary in a new language, or something else?

German is phonetic though - once you know how pronunciation maps to the alphabet (and certain compounds), it becomes easier to spell any new word. It’s actually why there’s no Spelling Bee in German.
