      Is that count feely or numbery?

      source
      • joyjoy@lemmy.zip ⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

        The count of pixels is not representable with numbers.

    petition to replace “quantitative” and “qualitative” with “characteristic” and “arithmetic”

    Anglish is a form of puristic English where all French/Latin derived words (and often others) are removed from English, leaving just the germanic base. A lot of anglish words look like this

      If you’d wanna copy from German, qualitative could be highworthy.
      And in anglish, you would’ve to get rid of “number” as well. Perhaps “tally” or something related is the stand-in (from Dutch taal and german Zahl).

      A really great rundown of ‘Anglish’ is here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=aMA3M6b9iEY

      That whole channel is a goldmine of quirks, curiosities, and facts about English in general.

      Dumbitative.

    I think the feely people prefer the term “holistic.”

  • Whelks_chance@lemmy.world ⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

    I was taught maths from a guy with a really strong London accent which resulted in both words sounding the same, approximately qua-i-a-ive. Which made the lesson tricky to follow.

    Do I dare ask what "touchy" is in that case? (Heisenberg says I cannot know the answer to all three.)

      haptic

      source
    • untorquer@lemmy.world ⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

      If feely is qualitative, as in having an apparent attribute or non-specific comparative then touchy would be the subjective observer attributing the characteristic or determining the comparative.

      In other words, touchy feely.

      I’m unsure whether touchy and the objective observer would be different, though the objective observer may be called, “county”
