Hello!

We are two mid twenty dudes looking for a third person to join our 3 bedroom 1 bathroom lease which renews on July 1st where your rent would be $1916. It’s located in Alphabet City / East Village ~7 minutes away from the 1st Ave L station. It’s on the 6th floor with an elevator which hasn't broken down once since we moved in to my knowledge.

For the images below, you'd take over the bedroom there are pictures inside! It's the second largest room, so we decided on our current lease the rents we pay are separated by $100.

The apartment comes with a dishwasher, a virtual doorman, and the usual NYC apartment stuff, and is located right next to a drop off laundry place that lets you run your clothes.

We’re both pretty chill!

One of us is out of the apartment from 10 AM - 10:30 PM almost every worknight, and I’m usually out of the apartment during the weekends too. I almost never have people over and I’m super quiet but I’m totally chill with guests and noise and stuff. I’m also gone for like 2 months out of the year in Korea. The main con is when I get back at night I take like ~30 minutes in our bathroom showering and doing skin care n stuff, but you can always kick me out if you need to use the restroom.

The other roommate is also very quiet and respectful who mostly WFH. He has a partner that will be over a few times a week and will have friends over sometimes on the weekend, but they mostly stay in their room until they go out and there hasn't been any issues between us :)

We also have a cat. She’s super friendly with all people and the main things are just once in a while she’ll have a hairball that I (the owner) clean up, or she’ll bug you if I’m home late and I haven’t fed her dinner yet (anyone can feed her when I’m late if she’s annoying). Her litterbox and care stuff is in my private room which I take care of. Sometimes I’ll be gone for work, vacation, or Korea where in the past we’ve had the other roomies do the usual stuff (food, water, litter), but I’d like to buy stuff to automate that during trips so I don’t burden anyone.

We're looking for a laid-back queer friendly roomie who will keep the apartment a chill place and wants to sign very soon! You're free to bring people over and such and the usual apartment stuff :D

Hmu!

This is a pointless question but I'm curious what others think.

Let's say someone asks how many words in Korean do you know. How do you even answer that? What I mean is there's a lot of separate "words" that are all the same thing just in different versions. For example:

사실, 사실상, 사실적, 사실성

As in, I know 사실, and I know what it means when you attach 上, 的, or 性 to a word, so does that mean I "know" 4 words because I can recognize what they mean?

Same with:

시작, 시작하다, 시작되다

Do I know three words because I know what 시작 means?

And with passive verbs: let's say we have 열다 and 열리다. Is it enough to "know" it if you recognize its passive form, or should it only be known if you can recall it?

And for English speakers, do you from the getgo know thousands of words because you recognize the loan word, or do you only know it if you can spell it or accurately say the loan version of the word?

Again, shit that doesn't matter, but I'm curious how others respond. Depending on the lines you draw the number of words I know can probably differ by a few thousand depending on loan words and also passive forms or noun -> to do forms, etc.
