I can’t believe Julie gave DE the human endgame Stelena was supposed to have and made Stelena’s last and only scene about SC. And Tyler didn’t even get to have a line or see Caroline one last time. Actually I can believe it, I just hate that she did it.
“Worldwide Netflix Originals have either completed their runs or Netflix stopped producing episodes. A show is assumed to have ended if there has been no confirmed news of renewal at least nine months after the show’s last episode was released.” (x)
I’m posting this here because I’m honestly so sick and tired of this kind of thing. Especially in regards to endangered languages
But yeah. so funny
For those who don’t know, Scots language is not the same as Scottish Gaelic. They are unique from each other. Some people know Scots language better as being referred to as a dialect, so if you’ve heard about the Scots dialect before online, they’re probably referring to Scots language.
UNESCO recognizes it as a vulnerable language (Gaelic is considered more severely as “endangered”).
The Scots Wikipedia is exactly what it sounds like, an alternate wikipedia where the articles are all written in Scots. There are other wikipedias that provide content for other languages the same way. It helps preserve and give access to a threatened and underrepresented language, which is invaluable.
About 16 hours ago, it was discovered that an American teenager has been editing and writing articles not in Scots, but in an American’s disrespectful phonetic take on what he thinks Scots sounds like.
This problem isn’t unique to this incident. Frequently on tumblr I see Americans making jokes about Scottish actors making what they’ve called “garbled Scottish sounds” and attempting (and failing) to type in Scots. Scottish languages have been decimated over the centuries, and Scots Wikipedia should be an amazing language resource.
The worst part? He’s apparently been at this for YEARS. He’s edited or penned nearly 1/3 of Scots Wikipedia. Apparently when Scots speakers have corrected him in the past, he’s had a “haughty attitude,” claiming that other Scots speakers (who were never present, unsurprisingly) approved of his failed attempts at writing in Scots.
The damage is heart wrenching:
“Potentially tens of millions of people now think that Scots is a horribly mangled rendering of English rather than being a language or dialect of its own, all because they were exposed to a mangled rendering of English being called Scots by this person and by this person alone.
They wrote such a massive volume of this pretend Scots that anyone writing in genuine Scots would have their work drowned out by rubbish. Or, even worse, edited to be more in line with said rubbish.
Wikipedia could have been an invaluable resource for the struggling language. Instead, it’s just become another source of ammunition for people wanting to disparage and mock it, all because of this one person and their bizarre fixation on Scots, which unfortunately never extended so far as wanting to properly learn it.”
Even worse, many people are praising this kid as the all-time most dedicate “troll,” as funny, etc. It’s inexcusable.
They’re hoping Scots speakers will volunteer to help fix all of the nonsense articles he’s put up.
I hope some people with a solid linguistics and/or Scots background can help in damage control:
This is why I don’t like Alptekin at all. He made sure that Serkan carry this burden, this heavy burden, all alone. And the thing that make me go crazy is that he told this secret just when Serkan finally found his happiness with Eda, and when he knew that they broke up he didn’t do anything. He saw that his son was hurting, bleeding, that this secret was eating him alive… And what did he do? Nothing of course. He’s such a coward. Even now that the secret is going to be revealed he continues to lie, to cover the mistake. What kind of person is that? How can Serkan and Eda will be able to forgive him? How can he be forgiven?
I feel so sorry for Serkan, he’s carrying a burden that is not his to carry. And when he can’t carry that burden anymore, when he finally got the courage to tell Eda all the truth, everything is ruined by Selin… I’m so tired of this two people.
