A polymath

what are your areas of proficiency?

>>8170161
whats a polymath?

>>8170164
Good question. My areas of proficiency include anthropology, history, philosophy, mathematics, psychology, neuroscience, computer science, quantum physics, bioengineering, computer engineering, electrical engineering, mechanical engineering, and much more.

>>8170169
Someone who's knowledgeable in many subjects.

>>8170161
What practical thing can you do with your knowledge that most ordinary people cannot?

>>8170172
What is your research focus in bioengineering?

>>8170161
Yo what's the best atom

Occupation?

how do i keep the top shelf of my refrigerator from freezing my produce?

thanks in advance

>>8170172
Can you clarify the much more part? Is it twice as much as what you already wrote down? Does it include origami and tying your shoes?

>>8170192
As a polymath, I enjoy analysing the patterns and layers of human speech; puns, sarcasm, innuendos, etc. And analyse the body language of people in order to determine their overall psychology. That's a practical use of my experience in studying psychology.

>>8170172

In a purely probabilistic sense, it's much more likely that you're full of yourself than that you're a polymath. Can you convince us quickly by stating a series of obscure facts or interesting original ideas in several of these areas? No sense in beating around the bush.

>>8170225

>>8170195

>the freshman's dream

hey do you measure your wang in cm or inches?

>>8170228
True, and I agree with you. But what kind of obscure facts would convince you? If I do mention a series of obsecure facts, I'll look like I'm full of myself again, thus defeating the point.

>>8170258
No, it proves the point to the anon who asked. You can be a polymath and be full of yourself. Too late for you to prove anything now though, convinced you're retarded.

>>8170161
What are the connected components of [math]\prod_{i=1}^{\infty} \mathbb{R}[/math] with the box topology?

>>8170233
I quite enjoy Nietzsche, even though he's a bit inconsistent. The recent book I've read and is quickly becoming a favourite is the 48 Laws of Power. I love Pulp Fiction. And I enjoy classical music, especially Moonlight Sonata by Beethoven.

>>8170265
DO IT OP

ILL KNOW IF UR FULL OF SHIT

>>8170270
Alright, move along everyone, nothing to see here.

>>8170161
Oh good quantum physics; can you give a summary of the proof of the Jahn-Teller effect using group theory please?

How is being unemployed treating you?

>>8170271
>>8170265
I have studied this problem for quite a while. If my calculations are correct the connected components have a sum of -1/12 .

Ladies and gentlemen, I'm quite saddened that you think I'm a troll or a bait. I'm genuinely a polymath. However, there seems to be a misconception that a polymath is a master of all subjects. But the truth is, a polymath is a jack of all trades but a master of none.

Dear OP: if you came here to see if you could pull it off, you're kind of full of yourself but you're alright, we can be friends still.

If you came here because you actually think several years of sporadic Googling and a couple college courses coupled with a comparatively ignorant group of peers makes you a "polymath" then back to the books with you!

I thought this sort of thing when I was like 18 and started to be shocked by just how well-learned people can actually be.

dl you know everything deeply or simply at the surface level?

>>8170324
surface level. i watch youtube videos mostly.

>>8170341
nigga pls

>>8170324
No, of course not. I don't know everything. I only know that I know nothing.

I'm deeply humbled.

>>8170346
When you say you know a subject people expect you to be able to help them with their problems in that subject

>>8170349
That is true.

Who has ever met another polymath here?

>>8170270
>Moonlight Sonata by Beethoven

Also, what is your favorite movement? many people say the first but I much prefer the intensity of the third

>>8170161
>polymath
Fields of study have become so complicated and compartmentalized today that this isn't possible in the same way it used to be. Human collective knowledge is far to great.

And being a FUCK YEAH SCIENCE fedora who reads r/askscience religiously, watches Vsauce, and just regurgitates what experts say doesn't count as a polymath.

>>8170161
Has anyone besides yourself considered you a polymath?
If the answer is no, then you're just narcissistic

>>8170270
>48 laws of power

Gross. Skimmed through a summary of it, and damn man, shit's autistic

You can't even prove basic mastery over a subject fundamental to many of the things you claim to be good at.

wew

However, I must say that all my efforts to prove that I'm a true polymath will be futile in such hostile environment.

>>8170412
Someone like you, gentleman, can easily accuse me of using a differential equation solver, even if I do solve it on my own.

>>8170430
Why are you even posting about your incredible wide breadth of knowledge on an anonymous aboriginal penile subincision discussion board if you can't even prove anything? Shit thread tbqh.

if you aren't dedicated to only one or two fields, you simply can't know enough to ever be truly useful

>>8170296
>The truth is, a polymath is a jack of all trades but a master of none.

So, you mean how the majority of the population tends to have surface knowledge about many subjects? I guess that makes you a lot less special, as by your own 'definition', practically anyone can claim to be a 'polymath'.

Do note, your definition is wrong, as a polymath is actually defined as: "a person whose expertise spans a significant number of different subject areas." And by your own admission you aren't an expert, or more accurately its synonym, 'master': "a master of none."

I rest my case, you verbose, hyperbolic, charlatan. You're probably nothing more than a dilettante, like much of /sci/ and 4chan in general.

>>8170551
>So, you mean how the majority of the population tends to have surface knowledge about many subjects?
What population are you talking about? The average person is a high school dropout who can't math and thinks anything they don't understand is stupid.

Where did you find that definition? I checked multiple online dictionaries including Merriam-Webster and did not see "expertise" or "master" anywhere -- at best I found "knowledge" and "learning".

>>8170542
>polyglot

>a 'ask a polygot anything'

>>8170542
A polyglot that does not know the English word for polyglot even with red squigglies suggesting to him that he spelled it wrong. Believable.

>>8170542
>polygot

Do you mean 'polyglot'? To note, that shows you do not have mastery of either English or Greek, as 'polyglot' is a borrowed word with a Grecian root.

>>8170545
>Indian

India doesn't have a single tongue, due to varied ethic groups and religions.

>>8170557
Because a polymath is only limited to STEM? Oh wait, no, many of your 'fields' are humanity based, I guess you contradicted yourself again.

I do apologise for the mistake. It's quite challenging to type on a phone.

>>8170566
>everyone on /sci/ is the same person
The content of my post is always completely ignored in favor of the content of posts by others. 'Tis the way of /sci/.

>>8170394
OP is faggot confirmed. Everyone go home.

>>8170571
By the way, the widely spoken tongue within India is 'Hindi', not 'Indian'. If you actually spoke it, you'd know that.

Even the most wisest of all men is not an exception to error or flaws.

>>8170265
Isn't the whole space connected?

>>8170578
By making up a language and claiming you speak it? By the way, extraordinary claims, require extraordinary evidence and that burden rests upon you, as claimant.

Since I'm both a polymath and a polyglot, people get jealous, which is understadable. This explains the attacks whenever a flaw appears in my texts.

>>8170585
understandable*

>>8170585
You made up a language and claimed to speak it, whilst also showing a lack of semantic understanding and a gross ignorance of Greek; a language you're apparently 'fluent' in. - Just give up, you're a shitty polymath.

>>8170580
I'm sorry for 'making up a language.' As I said, I don't have the advantage of writing clearly right now. However, what evidence do you require? I explained that I cannot provide any absolute evidence in this environment.

>>8170602
You said you spoke 'Indian', yet in India the official languages of the state are English and Hindi. Whereas, in reality, there isn't that much of a unified tongue as there are so many different ethnic and religious groups in India.

>>8170604
I am aware of that, it was only slip of a finger.

That also certainly calls into question your knowledge of anthropology and possibly history.

>>8170612
You can test me, if you are in doubt.

>>8170611

I blame my fingers. I sincerely apologise.

>>8170617

You cannot typo a whole word that is entirely different.

>>8170622
True, but I can make errors. And I'm fully responsible for it.

>>8170626
I bet Clinton wishes he could've just blamed his fingers, or the cigar.

>>8170161
Why haven't we heard of you before? The one great threat to intelligence is comfort. Once you become comfortable to a seat at a table, you assume everyone is equal at the table. When you sits down and proclaims superiority, you all become cowards. A real genius won't cower or fear in anonymity. They pray and play humans like a little girl plays with dolls. If OP is not role playing, he should proclaim his true identity and answer this question.

What is your greatest achievement in science?

>>8170629
Having fingers, capable of creating a language, whilst entirely separate of the executive function of my mind.

>>8170629
Shit, I made an ass of myself faster than a christian on a morale parade. Forget the spelling and grammar errors, the bottom line is that OP is claiming superiority( false authority) when no one has challenged it. In my opinion OP should still answer the questions imposed.

>>8170635
I've been challenging him (obviously) for over half-an-hour.

>>8170631
Mind the errors friend, the context is far more interesting. Unless you prefer to answer to bait. Yes I made errors, and yes I've had a few mind altering activities which weren't justified. The point of focus is that OP has made a claim of superiority and no one has challenged it. We should demand a name and ask what their greatest achievement was into science. This should demolish certain low level beliefs and acknowledge true hierarchy. Something you should all be doing instinctfully given the circumstances of this board.

>>8170641
That insult was levied at your expense, but directed at the moral fibre of OP.

>>8170639
Wasting half an hour of your time on a false identity is your own undoing. You should have known from the beginning such as I have that this is a ego boost. OP has had less than their fulfillment in feeling superior recently. Probably affairs or work related activities. Perhaps school related if it is truly this stupid.

As for you, the person who spent half and hour antagonizing OP, a little psychology would tell you this is a false claim on identity.

>>8170646
Meanwhile you have been doing? I've barely entered this board.

>>8170647
I was aware, but I've always enjoyed drowning puppies.

>>8170565
same can be said for the mysterious language known as "chinese". If I was to lay down some bullshit like this, I at least would have said "mandarin" ... would have sounded better, also would have said "Tamil" for "indian",

>>8170651
It would be Hindi though, as the official lingua franca.

>>8170650

Attacking the weak spots? How clever when I already addressed them. I guess now you will simply claim I am a drunk OP. Why don't you tell us why you made this thread to begin with, or will you simply cower and say you are someone else?

>>8170675
I'm not OP, you're OP, OP. Also, you're drunk, OP.

>>8170675
Before you type your response, let me remind you that I've called on your impairment for wasting 30 minutes on OP. So either you are hiding behind a veil of ambiguity to show off as intelligence (OP) or you are simply this stupid to spend 30 minutes with OP regardless of emotional affairs. I'm convicting myself of talking to a stupid person while I'm purposely made myself stupid by stupid actions. After I sober up I can dominate your ass in any debate in any subject. In the mean time this is entertaining while I am intoxicated. I ask again. What is your excuse?

>>8170682
Answer the question or you admit you should have known from the beginning or you truly are OP and should express your true identity. No one is perfect, no one here is some great scientist. Confess you fool.

>>8170689
>>8170685
>>8170682
In any regards, should anyone here try to contact me before I abruptly leave I can be contacted by emailing biagonist at gmail. I should suspect OP to send me an email for apologizing to creating a stupid thread.
Good night to you listeners!

>>8170695

This is quite interesting as I am actually a polyglot (the linguist from /int/ who specialises in Indic languages and is mapping out dialects of Punjabi) and a polymath, with my areas of interest spanning from anthropology to cosmology.

So I’d like to ask OP a few questions.

I’d also like to note that I don’t go around referring to myself as a polymath, but have decided to do so for the purposes of this thread.

>>8170545
>>8170656

It's referred to as Hindustani.

Hindi and Urdu are two formalised registers of one language, known to linguists as Hindustani.

I'm the other polyglot and 'polymath' who just posted.

Ok OP, since you’ve just stated you speak fluent ‘Indian’ and Urdu:

Bhaai saahib, ye bataaie…

Kya aap ke khayaal se Pakistan sayaasi taur par mazboot hai?

Yaani, lagta hai ke mazboot nahin hai, qaas taur se Hindustan ke muqabile men aur kyion ki Afghanistan ka kinaara bahut khatarnaak hai aaj kul.

In fact, fuck it; let's see if OP is really telling the truth:

Lugha wa7ida la takfi wa los idiomas del mundo son muy khoobsurat.

What did I just say?

OP has failed to respond to my Urdu post and my post comprised of five languages that he/she claims to speak.

>>8171269
OP is probably full of shit but OP is probably also gone by now, be patient.

>>8171275

But I'm feeling a bit manic and have just had a coffee; patience is very difficult right now.

Also when I said that I was also a ‘polymath’, I simply meant ‘a person whose expertise spans a significant number of different subject areas’, however I will clarify that it is to a general level.

I was assuming OP meant the same thing, however I doubt it now.

The polymath of the Renaissance period is long dead, as scientific fields have become far too complex for anyone one person to have a detailed grasp more than a couple at best, let alone the whole scope of human knowledge.

It’s not the 1400s any more.

I would like to formally apologise to all of those I kept waiting, and for my elusiveness. I've been busy with some meetings and negotiations, as such I wasn't able to contribute to this enlightening conversation.

A great number of people on here think that I'm no more than a charlatan, but the truth is that my claims are genuine.

The sceptics and doubters might say, this is all an elaborate prank made to fool everyone.

And they might be right: From their own perspective, they don't know me. So why would they believe my claims?

To this I say, indulge in scepticism. It's only when you've become sceptics will you be able to differentiate between the truths and the falsehoods. And I hope that I'm omitted from the falsehoods when you've inspected me fully.

>>8171263
I've studied Urdu with the Perso-Arabic alphabets, so I'm quite afraid I won't be able to understand that as smoothly as I would with the Perso-Arabic alphabets.

Plus, you can translate Perso-Arabic script, but it'll be difficult to do that with romanised Urdu.

I think that if the Riemann hypothesis is true, then it's going to further our understanding of prime numbers and their distributions. It seems promising.

And to your second question: That's what we're going to find out if the theory is proven to be true.

>>8171339
You haven't displayed any evidence and have in fact actually shown evidence too the contrary of your claims. The only thing you have displayed is denial, something many people share with you. OP is a faggot and a fraud.

>>8171380
Hilarious, you're like a politician, you just regurgitate the statement and make it neutral.

>>8171354
There is a huge difference between, say, the pronunciation of Arabic letters and Romanized Arabic letters stringed together. The pronunciation is subtle, and depending on the pronunciation, it can produce different meanings.

>>8171394

That is absolutely not true for the words contained within my post.

OP has failed the test, he is not a polyglot.

Yes, you missed what I said because you are not fluent in the five languages I used to compose those utterances.

There is absolutely no reason to lie about any of this.

I'm a polyglot, who just asked you to translate a series of utterances made in five languages that you claim to speak fluently, and you failed to do so.

I don't call myself a ‘polymath’ because that is an outdated term that belongs to the likes of renaissance men, such as da Vinci and Galileo.

It isn’t possible to have a detailed grasp on a broad spectrum of scientific fields in this day and age, however one can still learn a great deal about many of them.

As my interests and knowledge base spans a broad collection of fields, then I’ll wincingly refer to myself as a polymath for the purposes of this thread.

To everyone else ITT:

I’ll answer any question put to me in a logical and wholly non-political manner, and guess what if I don’t know something or have no grounding in a subject area, I’ll just tell you that I have no idea.

You're a polyglot, and I acknowledge that. But not all polyglots are equal.

The idea that 'polymath' is an outdated term and isn't useable or meaningful anymore is no more than a way for people to tell themselves that they cannot excel at multiple subjects, and become as great as Da Vinci, for example. I'm a living example of a polymath.

>>8171523

Summarise everything from the large scale structure of the universe to human society, in as few words as possible.

Let's say, 1000 word limit give or take 10%.

>>8171556
'Marcel Barbeau': you just Google Marcel and abstract expressionists, the search algorithm puts it all together for you.

>>8171556

Not OP, but the actual polyglot who keeps singing in Hindi.

Marcel was dismayed and perhaps somewhat perplexed by the complexity inherent in attempting to define the Abstract movement, as it cannot be defined by the mere disappearance of the figure on the canvas.

It is this lack of definition that opens the floodgates to painting in absence of style well defined by the not simply the dominant culture of the time, but in fact any well-defined artistic bounds, which Marcel saw as a slovenly mockery of the art, but which also compelled him to dedicate an entire book to the issue.

He saw abstract art as the production of deformity.

>>8171580
In that case, I agree with Marcel, art should represent reality as most of humanity experiences it.

Man, where are you from? I don't even blame you for thinking you're a legit polymath at this point.

Regardless, have you ever written a book or considered writing one?

>>8171656
I cannot tell you where I'm from for professional and personal reasons.

Yes. I've wrote several outstanding books, but I've been hesitant to publish them for reasons I cannot mention.

>>8171653
Why? It is clearly a field you know nothing about.

>>8171665
> for reasons I cannot mention.

Publisher either demanded heavy editing, or they are straight up awful.

My writing is hard to breath through because it's very detailed, informative and demands full attention and concentration. I've penned a new moral system (since no one is religious anymore), and some new mathematical theorems. I've also unified two major theories into one. And much more. This is only a hint.

It's because fermions are particles of half integer spin, unlike bosons for example.

Yes, I know that s is 1/2, but why does this violate the pauli principle? Is there something trivial behind this or is the proof too complicated? I would like to understand this intuitively.

Guys, OP has failed to demonstrate significant knowledge of any field and failed to translate both a multilingual audio recording and two written examples.

>>8171737
I can't really share any piece of information about my ideas, for the internet is a place known for plagiarism.

>>8171874
Admitting to not know is often a lot wiser than claiming to know all, however it is not a sign of ignorance. It's a sign of humility.

And I would like to add that appearing too perfect is dangerous for me and for you, I have to show some flaws.

What happened to Jesus when he appeared too perfect? He was crucified.

>>8171879

You did the exact opposite of that, you claimed to have knowledge over a broad range of disciplines, including languages.

Yet you have failed to demonstrate that.

When we ask you about particular topics you either dodge the question or say that you're not proficient in that field.

Then, when we ask you to just write about something you tell us that your writing is too obscure or your work is too valuable and is likely to be plagiarised.

Post something that you don't care about being plagiarised, but is apparently too obscure to read.

Trust me, I'll sail right through it and I'm sure plenty of others will too.

I'm honestly perplexed. What do the majority of people on here think of me?

As a linguist and a polyglot, I do not think that you are a polyglot.

I disagree. The very same argument could have been used in the past referring to their past.
Still it is now as or more unlikely as it was back then - there was only a handful of polymaths, and hardly two or three were alive at the same time.

>>8172007

>>8171864
That's a shame. They're incredibly interesting (when you know some group theory like UFDs and PIDs etc). It's okay though, I figured the problem out myself. I just thought it would be a good math conversation.

>>8174177
I'm not disagreeing honestly, was just wondering. Do you actually contribute to studies in those fields at all? I always imagined it would be pretty hard to contribute to research without a degree. You'd need to self fund or know people with their own labs that would let you in.

I'm curious how you become a polyglot. I speak English natively and German and Russian to an extent but I don't have a solid grasp on either of them. Can you give any advice to how you master languages? I specifically have an issue with sentence structure and grammar. The vocabulary comes to me easily as does the pronunciation and accent as well.

I hope I'll be able to answer all of your questions, however if I do not provide an answer to a question then it might be due to one of the following reasons:

1. Your question is poorly constructed.

2. Your question is ridiculously simple and would be a waste of everyone's time if I answer it.

3.Your question is not serious, and is for mocking purposes.

>>8176251

Explain the evolution of our universe, based on the most recent data and theory.

>>8176385
I'm OP. I would suggest that you read more of German and Russian literature, and try grasping the language as best as you can. Observe the language of such writers like Tolstoy, Dostoevsky, Göethe, Nietzsche, etc. And if you have the opportunity, speak with the natives of the language and interact with them more. Understanding the logic behind a language will improve your sentence structure and grammar.

>>8176385

OP has not proven himself to be a polyglot once, nor proficient in any language other than English.

He has been offered two tests in two formats: audio and text based.

He failed.

>>8176403

OP record yourself speaking in the languages you claim to speak on vocaroo.

Let's give you yet another opportunity to prove yourself.

>>8176411
Yeah IK, OP is fake. I'm asking you since you seem to be proficient in so many languages.

>>8170545
我都說中文. 你學過幾年 哪裡又怎麼溫習?

>>8176432

Ok, cool beans.

To what extent do you speak German and Russian?

Just so I have a better idea.

>>8176451
(For German) I'd say I can speak at a somewhat intermediate level. I can compose basic statements and can probably read elementary school German texts with ease. I watch a lot of movies with German subtitles so I can develop a more intuitive sense of the language. When I say intuitive I mean being able to tell when a sentence sounds/looks incorrect. I do this because my grammar/sentence structure is rubbish. What my real question is I suppose is, how do you learn sentence structure and grammar effectively? I'm not so much worried with Russian because German is more interesting to me but I enjoy both. My Russian is in a beginner stage, I can introduce myself, read/write/speak the alphabet, basic numbers, etc. Thanks for any help you can provide.

Then read as much as you can in the language, at a level that you find manageable but challenging, while always trying to progress.

Can you read and write Cyrillic yet?

>>8176516

>>8171468
by the way, your russian at least was incorrect
not only in pronunciation, but also in conjugation
is there no real polyglot here?

http://vocaroo.com/i/s17LCJ7L6T3I

what is it with german and compound words?

>>8176542

I said 'ya khochu gavaryu' instead of 'ya khochu gavareet'.

When pulling words from multiple languages out of the brain at the same time, it's likely that conjugation will be ignored and the underlying meaning will be prioritised.

So it was bound to happen at least once.

That's one mistake, while speaking in five different languages, in series utterances that I made up on the spot, off the top of my head.

As for pronunciation, the same thing goes as I barely had time to warm up in any language, before switching to another, so my pronunciation was bound to be off.

Give me a break anon.

>>8176557
"khochu" isn't a word
you likely mean "hachu", or "хoчy"
are you sure you aren't a monoglot?

>>8176543

They love efficiency; why have four words when one can do the job?

P.S. Nice German.

>>8176564
Beginner Russian learner here, the transliteration into latin characters for "x" is "kh"

>>8176564

Are you really disputing the form of a romanised Cyrillic word?

Yes, хoчy, which I wrote as ‘khochu’.

'Hachu' isn't any more of a word than 'khochu', as they are both romanisations of a word written in Cyrillic.

I deliberately didn’t use IPA, as I was attempting to write in a way that was accessible, however if you want to get pedantic about it I’ll rewrite the whole thing in IPA, so you know the exact consonants and vowels being denoted.

>>8176574

That is the typical transliteration used, but you could in theory use 'h' or 'x', as well.

Obviously, just don't be a massive faggot about it like this anon >>8176564

I use 'kh' for writing the same sound in romanised Urdu.

>>8176574
>>8176576
plebs, both wrong
хoчy has the emphasis on the second vowel, so the "o" is pronounced as an "ah".
also, "x" is not pronounced as "kh". it is prounounced like a guttural h, which is why our russian friends will right "xaxaxa" in place of "hahaha" )))
>>8176583
>post yfw you are a monoglot who thinks he is a polyglot but is actually a polyglot
дypaк

>>8176593

The term you are looking for is 'voiceless velar fricative', not ‘guttural h’ which is a layman term.

If you want to get technical then ‘x’ is pronounced ⟨x⟩.

You can’t be wrong when informally transliterating.

Plus, I’ve already proven that I am a polyglot, unlike OP, which you yourself have seen, or I should say, heard.

i will concede that you are probably more of a polyglot than OP, but your russian needs work. i am unfamiliar with linguistic terms, but i do know that your pronunciation of хoчy (in the vocaroo) was incorrect everywhere except for around the students of a beginner's russian classroom.
source:
i took an intensive russian course at my university with a few mean old soviet ladies

>>8176629

Anon, I went from Tamil, a language from the Dravidian family and spoken in Southern India and Sri Lanka, to Russian, a Slavic language, in a split second, for three words and then moved on to Spanish.

It is hardly likely that my pronunciation would have been on point, given the circumstances.

>i am unfamiliar with linguistic terms

No shit.

I’m not, because I’m a trained linguist who is currently working on mapping out dialects of Punjabi spoken by inhabitants of Northern Pakistan and North-Western India; I’ve posted my work on /int/ and hosted several threads on Indic languages, as well as collaborated with a Youtube polyglot who is working at Lahore university.

That is to say, I'm transparent about my abilities, unlike OP the shit poster.

Post an audio recording of you speaking in Russian, and make sure you say the word ‘хoчy’ in it.

let me move to my desktop and i'll get that vocaroo to you, sweetheart

This is getting banal. I've proved that I'm a polyglot and a polymath more than once on here, however some people are determined to illogically criticise me no matter what I do.

Don't get me wrong, I encourage scepticism and criticism. But when it's illogical and not supported, I have to ignore it. To argue with someone who has renounced the use of reason is like administering medicine to the dead, like Thomas Paine once said. And I'm referring to the anon who convinced himself that he's a polyglot, and other frauds like him.

You've already failed both my tests, so I'm quite certain that you're not a polyglot.

I wasn't caught in any lies.

I provided evidence of my language ability and my work on Indic languages.

An anon simply took umbrage to me imperfectly pronouncing three words of Russian while speaking in five languages, alternating the language an average of every four words.

I have no idea why he became so upset about it, but he did and that's that.

I didn’t claim to be anything I’m not.

You did, however and you have failed to provide evidence of your abilities.

On top of that, you effectively failed to translate the audio recording, thereby providing evidence against your claims made here >>8170545

Dear God! You really hate it when you're wrong. I guess no one can blame you or convince you that you're really wrong. You will always think you're right. So sad!

>I guess no one can blame you or convince you that you're really wrong.

I'm wrong all the time.

However, I haven't claimed to be anything that I'm not or said anything 'incorrect' ITT.

If you think I have, please provide a clear example, as I have for OP.

How do you read the literature? Do you need to have pretty strong vocab before you start doing that? Or do you have a side by side translation while reading? Please explain

>>8176837
You don't need a strong vocabulary to read, you need to read in order to improve your vocabulary. A side by side translation would be very helpful, but you have to sniff the spirit of the language and learn the mechanisms of it. Read more!

>>8176837
You have to expose yourself to the language as best as you can, and only then will you be fluent.

There is no universally accepted criterion for distinguishing between closely related languages and dialects, however if a number of regional dialects connecting a broader chain of mutually intelligible dialects (constituting a dialect continuum) die out, then mutual intelligibility can be severed, which would effectively divide the remaining dialects into non-mutually intelligible dialect chains, which could thereafter be defined as two separate languages.

This sort of thing typically occurs in regions where closely related languages bleed into one another, for example in the foothills of Kashmir.

Write a fizzbuzz right now

What are you talking about? Unique factorization domains and principle ideal domains? You find that in the group theory chapter of your standard abstract algebra book.

try ring theory you incompetent buffoon

>>8177015
Yeah that makes sense. I studied UFD's and PID's after studying some group theory and just sorta carelessly lumped them together in my mind but yes, that is actually ring theory. My mistake, sorry for letting you down.

I haven't studied functional analysis but to my understanding, you're talking about normed vector spaces and shit linked together with analysis. I don't see how that connects with UFD's and PID's, I mean, if there's a way to bring field theory into it, I can vaguely see perhaps how. Do UFD's and PID's actually appear in functional analysis or was that bullshit?

>>8170161
What do you not excel at?

>>8170172
Where do you find the time to extensively study each one of those subjects?
