It was part of the paperwork requested by the person who arranged my loan and there were no follow up questions.

I once had to “explain the gap in my CV” when applying for a loan. And apparently, “I didn’t feel like working for those 6 months,” wasn’t a good enough explanation. Even though I think literally everybody personally understands the concept.
I ended up saying that I spent the time taking care of my parents, since I did spend some of that time taking care of them.
One important skill for school is to look at the entire question so that you can understand what the teacher is asking for, even if they don’t format the question exactly right.
In this case, your answer would not fit into the 6 spaces provided for the answer.
So you have to ask yourself what they meant by “Write the following words”. Since “the” is the same word repeated twice, once you’ve written “the” after 5, then I could argue that “the” has already been written.
Therefore, if there are only six blanks for the answer, looking at the entire question, I argue that the answer I provided is most likely correct.
- alphabet
- come
- in
- order
- the
- they

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Would the United States actually risk a Tiananmen Square incident?English
17·1 day agoI’m still surprised that all of the January 6 insurrectionists could just storm the capitol building without being shot. They were breaking into the main building that had all of our lawmakers in it at the time, and only one of those morons was shot. Only the stupidest one. The queen of morons.
And did you notice what happened after that idiot was shot and killed? Nobody else tried to go through that window.
Exactly. It’s sad, but in America, if you say something to a cop, and the cop, for example, “misremembers” and says that you confessed to a crime, you can be in hot water. If you simply don’t speak to a cop, then it’s more difficult for the cop to “misremember”.
That’s an extreme example, and it’s getting less likely with cops wearing more bodycams, but there’s simply no reason to take the risk of talking to a cop.
I wouldn’t go for this. Even in Victorian times, the catapult was outdated technology.
Now, then, if it were a trebuchet, then you’d really see how far that baby could go.
Oh my, I hope he didn’t get rid of my private collection.
You can tell from the background that this isn’t my attic.

91·2 days agoSomebody correct me if I’m wrong, but I once heard that, apart from planned obsolescence, there are parts in modern appliances that wear out faster because the parts provide some other benefit. For example, if there are plastic parts like certain gears, they may be quieter than equivalent metal parts.

131·3 days agoIt’s not particularly funny in the first place.
If a sidewalk is overgrown by grass and then people walk on the grass to make a desire path, that would be more obvious, I think.
I’m just saying this would be like that. There’s a place where people would want to walk if only there was a path there, but there is a path. It’s obstructed by snow.
とくにもくてきはないひと
means “Write out what you have to say, and then delete the last sentence”?
Sorry my phone is not letting me write properly in Japanese for some reason…
This is a desire path on top of a normal path.
It doesn’t matter. Those companies went out of business about 20 years ago, and the new companies have their own chair policies.
Did Alanis Morissette write this?
It’s honestly weird to store treasure in a chest in the first place.
If you’re rich enough to have treasure, wouldn’t it be in like a treasure vault or on display?
I recall in the early dotcom days there were companies who thought every person needed to have a Herman Miller chair. Silly thought but they are comfy.
