You sound odd, like a child or someone not fluent if you don't use our misuse the genders of words.

That being said, as native Spanish that lived in the UK for a while, I noticed that genders and verb forms are useful for providing more context when talking.

Cannot think of specific examples now, but in general in a phrase if you don't hear a word or don't know the meaning, it is easier to guess it because the rest of the phrase is constructed around the gender and more complex verbal forms.

Believe it or not, I've read the books and saw all the movies, but was a franchise for which my love decreased as it evolved. So not a huge fan at the end, but the game was not very punishing for knowing or not a lot of lore.

Regardless, the game itself is greatly done in some parts and some others were left without any love. I won't go into spoilers. The graphics are incredible for being on the switch, and the beginning of the game and mostly the castle are amazingly done with a lot of details and love. You can definitely feel to be a student in hogwarts and it's great. There are some beasts to interact to, which was also interesting and I had some fun with those mechanics.

The main problem is that at some point most of the missions are outside the castle (which is just land half empty with repetitive areas), which breaks the immersion of the hogwarts-life built in the castle. Partly because of that, some of the story and side missions don't make a lot of sense to me, which was a bit of a disappointment, mostly towards the end (I think I felt the same about the books/movies ๐Ÿค”).

I finished Hogwarts legacy, which was a "meh" 6/10 by my taste.

Now I'm playing Dave the Diver and I'm enjoying it a lot, definitely is more than meets the eyes.. and the cinematic videos are great ๐Ÿ˜…๐Ÿ

you're right of course, and for me the first panel the sentence sounds correct, but not the last one, where she's already refering to her cat which is a cat like "gato" only. Maybe not the same asking if you have any car, any boyfriend or any cat as opposed to saying that now you have a cat, which should go with the "a" before. Unless the cat is called "Cat" ๐Ÿ˜…

I'm not a linguistic and cannot argue the why properly, but the sentence in last panel is definitely off

"un gato", it's missing the word "a" in "a cat", which makes it sound wrong and funnier in spanish than if it'd be written well

I would have translated better without the "a" to make it wrong and same level of absurd.

  • Do you have cat?
  • No
  • Now you do
  • And that's how I got cat

I check regularly from the creator website instead, which is great with references to its own lore, link here

Prepare for a hardcore zelda-like game with Tunic. I couldn't finish it for the life of me, too frustrating even though I kinda got through 70% of it

I found this one if you're interested to replace it

Radom tapas is a thing in small places in Spain. Definitely my favourite, as usually is what they have just freshly made from the kitchen and not thinking is a wonderful perk. I'd go to a "random tea" place definitely
