- No explicitly political content (about political figures, political events, elections and so on), !politicalmemes@lemmy.ca can be better place for that
- Use NSFW marking accordingly
Laittakaa meemejä tänne.
- Odota ainakin 2 kuukautta ennen meemin postaamista uudelleen
- Ei selkeän poliittista sisältöä (poliitikoista, poliittisista tapahtumista, vaaleista jne) parempi paikka esim. !politicalmemes@lemmy.ca

Accents as well. You can have the rain in Spain falling mainly on the plain as much as you want, but it's not going to help any foreign visitors to Newcastle or Liverpool.
Slang as well. Apparently my grandma was hood af so when I tried to use what little German I knew my teacher was like that’s some informal shit.
And local colloquialisms as well. I can tell you the secret to a Boston accent is to replace the r after a vowel with an h, and that'll help you pahk the cah at Hahvahd yahd, but won't do a damn thing when somebody tells you the food at a restaurant is wicked pissah, but warns you that it's rainin' feckin' hahd out deyah so yeh better off takin' the T to Southie.
