| Equally important is ensuring the written language looks nice, and accounting for sound mutations within the language. Some palatalization examples: ⟨fuse⟩→⟨fusion⟩, ⟨submit⟩→⟨submission⟩; vowel reduction examples: ⟨photograph⟩ pronounced FOH-tuh-graf (-toh-), and ⟨photography⟩ pronounced fuh-TAH-gr... |

| Frankly I'm going to have to agree with Kiprobalhato. It'd be a lot of work to make an alphabet and writing system that works for most of the most popular English dialects/accents. But I still love the idea of English spelling reform :D Okay, here's my go at a reform: Wat r ur thots on nglish spllng... |

| Some of HFA/Asperger's common symtoms might actually arise from comorbid syndromes such as GED (general anxiety disorder) or OCD (obsessive compulsive disorder). I think that many aspies have an anxiety disorder. Asperger's is definitely on the autism spectrum; the DSM-5 got rid of Asperger's in fav... |

| I was thinking Portland when I read your post, before I even got to your list of cities. It meets all your criteria and is a great place to be. The only thing about Portland is that it doesn't have a lot of jobs. This may not matter if you're just going to school full time but should be a factor if... |

Live for yourself, not for society's warped values. Do you really want all that stuff, or do you want the social status it affords? Social status is... |

| It doesn't really count as Polish, but I have been trying learn Russian! From what I have read they are fairly distinct -- comparable to comparing German and Dutch. The Polish language, with its Latin script, is quite beautiful; Polish and consequently Poland has a warmer "feel" to it than most Slav... |
