Nkosya

Nkosya

I was reading "Where Animals Talk" by ROBERT H. NASSAU, and came across this:

"Besides the words for “hunger” and “famine,” the Bantu languages have a third word meaning, “longing for meat.” "

And settled on "Nkosya" after some google searches. Actually not sure, will need your expertise. Also found out several tribal languages across the world have this term because meat is not as available as starchy carbohydrates.

I'm not a linguist, I just found this fascinating. Book is on Gutenberg:

How do you think he does it?

Is the shopkeeper paying the local mafia to set up shop? Is that why some enemies have a bunch of gold on them? I'd love to bribe some mobs too

Cuando se dice: "¡Buena esa!" ¿A qué se refiere con "esa"?

Es una buena...qué? Coña? Parida? ... Observación?

Me lo han preguntado unos estudiantes, estábamos mirando casos de uso diferentes de bien y bueno/a.

Edit: perdón aclaro la pregunta, lo que me preguntaban es por qué se usa "esa" en femenino, en lugar de en masculino, con qué sustantivo femenino puede estar concordando "esa" ?

An illustration of addresses clustered in the Bionic token network

Saw this on a Github project. It strikingly resembles to a galaxy but with the opposite of black hole in the center. There must be some networks theory law explaining this behaviour.
