Are you sure it's OK to abbreviate like that?
It kept the CW from meaning anything to me at least, so I think it shouldn't be abbreviated for what that's worth.
Yeah if I just read "sui" on its own my mind would probably just think 水. The Hexbear CoC explicitly says "Do not abbreviate your CWs. Not everyone knows what the abbreviation stands for."
Shui*
Real question: What's the eufemistic for suicide? Extreme self harm?
That's a fair question, I guess I would've just used suicide but I get your point that that could be counterproductive as well
~~Yeah I'm afraid of pigs~~
Are you trying to make a joke about pig calling?
Sui is pig in latin IIRC,
I changed it, I'm not arguing about the request
Edit 1: Aw it's sus not sui, damn
Edit 2: in spanish "suino" means "pig"
Sūs in the nominative singular, suī in the dative or ablative singular.
The fuck is the ablative case, when the word cuts and extracts something?
Uh ok
So glad I stoped learning Latin once I reached “declensions”
Don't they exist in every european language except english?
I don’t recall learning them in Spanish (different than verb conjugations, right?) but you’re probably right. I checked out of Spanish grammar pretty early and just spoke based on what felt right
Ah wait that's when the nouns and adjetives change based on grammatical case. You are right we don't do that shit in spanish
Oh sick I was wondering if i totally forgot something about the language
