In #Bulgarian the literal translation of the word we use for "probably" is "safely" (сигурно). And when we want to say something is 100% probable, we say "with safety" (със сигурност)

My current projects, no particular order: 1. Developing a website/blog builder in quasar framework. 2. Beating DK World and True Lies for the SNES. 3. Rehearsing for a gig with my electro-rock band. 4. Rehearsing for a gig with my death-metal band. 5. Maintaining my online radio and discovering new chiptune songs. 6. Digitizing an encyclopaedia on Bulgarian dialect. 7. Recording children's songs sung in regional dialects. 8. Writing new music for my electro-rock project. What's on your agenda?

Good news! I did pretty well on my last gig. I tried not to look at any of the audience members, instead looking straight up above them. It...

Good news! I did pretty well on my last gig. I tried not to look at any of the audience members, instead looking straight up above them. It also helped that a friend of mine told me to try and do my worst. Aiming for failure is very liberating and allowed me to enjoy my time on stage.

When I perform live, my mind is constantly racing and overthinking. It seems like I cannot go into a flow state and just enjoy the moment. Got any tips and tricks on how I can minimise the self-consciousness?

In #bulgarian language, negation is very subtle. We say:

"не ПРАВИ това" (don't DO that)

which is very similar to:

"наПРАВИ това" (DO that)

The negating word "NOT" is almost never stressed, and unlike English, it's weird to say "DON'T do that". Here's a few more examples:

"това не БИВА да се ПРАВИ" (this should not BE DONE)

"тук не СЕ ЯДЕ" (here you DO not EAT)

It doesn't help that the "NOT" is often pronounced quickly and/or with a schwa sound.

Not having listened to Elvis Presley before, I've been going through his discography this week. One thing I keep hearing is Cher. I can't unhear it. I have to remind myself this isn't Cher singing, it's Elvis. Anyway, so far I find his #music mediocre, at best. Boring background music.
