I know I can call them advertisement boards but I'd like to know if you all call it the same.

Some of the games I've enjoyed in recent years are What Remains of Edith Finch, The Excavation of Hob's Barrow, and The Drifter.

I consider all those three to have great atmosphere, voice acting, writing, and art. That's mostly what I'm looking for. I especially don't like games where you have to farm or grind stuff.

I also liked Detroit: Become Human a lot.

You get one point fewer for that move.

You get one point less for that move.

I think people call it one thing or another depending on where they live, so it would be appreciated if you could specify your region.

Edit: Sorry for not being clearer with my wording. What I was actually trying to ask was more "What verb do you use to describe what snow does when it remains unmelted on the ground after falling?"

Thank you for the replies.

He pssted at me and gestured for me to come in.

Does it sound natural? Would you write it like that? Would you avoid that phrasing?

How often do you hear it meaning to arrive or enter a place suddenly? And in what contexts do you hear it?

Some examples:

Look who's just blown in!
Have you heard who's blown into town?
A storm blew in around 4 a.m.

When texting in a chatroom, should I say "You heard that right" or "You read that right"?

I'm trying to say it in the sense where it's said to emphasize that what has just been said is exactly true despite being surprising or difficult to believe.

I'm asking in the context of a conversation where the participants are just texting without speaking a word with their voice.

For example in this situation:

How would you ask someone to pick up the banknote? I'm not sure if "banknote" is only used in the UK. There's also "bank bill" but I think that's rare. Maybe there's other words or ways of saying it that I'm missing.

Edit: Note that I deliberately chose to put a non-dollar bill in the image and that the amount due on the restaurant bill is 200, the same as the denomination of the banknote.

You've never even been there! What do you know?

(As a dismissive way of saying that someone doesn't know enough about the topic to have an opinion.)

In Spanish we say "¿Qué sabrás tú?" in this situation. Is "What do you know?" a natural equivalent, or would you use something else?

In this example, which option would you prefer?:

Cristiano Ronaldo is the longest-serving player in men's international football.

Cristiano Ronaldo is the longest-tenured player in men's international football.

Cristiano Ronaldo is the longest-lasting player in men's international football.

Would you use another adjective or phrase?

Demo units? Floor models? Other?

On the Studies menu, under the Projects section, now are listed all the Projects studies that I've taken over time. This is a webpage I'm constantly checking for new studies and it really gets annoying seeing my least favourite studies in there every time. It would be nice to have an option to hide the studies listed there.

Thank you very much.

I'd like to know what you would call this item as it's shown in the image, empty and discarded. I'd like a common term that would describe it not in terms of its branding but in terms of its function as a manufactured thing. For example an "empty snack packet" or an "empty bag of chips". Thank you.
