  No way some tattooer wouldn’t have caught this unless they’re somehow just as dyslexic… Seems fake

      Wouldn’t the letters be backwards then? Or the watch on the other wrist? I feel more like “photoshopped” to be swapped

  just make em a little thicker and it can be port and starboard XymBVbCXkA22HiW.jpg

  • capt_wolf@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

    Nah, all need to do for that is remember the port and left are both four letter words.

    Front = Bow, fore

    Back = Stern, aft

    If you don’t get it right, I’ll throw your ass out the little round window on the side!

      Why do we need a different word for left and right when we ready have the words left and right?

  To this day I have problems telling left from right.

  I will go the correct direction when I’m driving, and point the correct direction, but I will often say the wrong direction.

  One friend tried to help me by telling me that “Right is the hand that you write with”, but I’m left-handed.

  Fortunately, I have a massive scar on my arm from where my arm was shattered into three places, and that scar is on my right arm, so every time I’m about to tell someone directions, I end up tapping the scars on my arms until I find the correct scar, and then I know that direction is right so I can point in the right direction.

    Right/Left Confusion is very common. I have it, too.

    People like us tend to say “No, your other left.”

  • turtlesareneat@piefed.ca ⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

    I had real trouble for a long time, but I can always glance down at my hand and see the L made by my left index finger and thumb. Eventually I could see it in my head. I memorize things with visual cues somehow IDK.

    source

    • its_kim_love@lemmy.blahaj.zone ⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

      I try that method but then have to sit there and think about what direction L should be pointing.

      source
  • Townlately@feddit.nl ⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

    I wrote so much as a child that my middle finger on my dominant hand is actually slightly deformed. Sometimes I still catch myself touching that messed up bone to remind myself which direction is which. :/

    source
  • Rhaedas@fedia.io ⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

    think of it like their alphabetical order (assuming reading left to right, of course). L is left of R, R is right of L.

  • REDACTED@infosec.pub ⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

    This is so bizzare to me. I can easily memorize people’s phone numbers, I can remember what I did a month ago, I can learn fucking JavaScript, but remembering which is my left hand? Hardest job ever

    source

    • VitoRobles@lemmy.today ⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

      Have you considered getting a R tattoo on your left hand and a L tattoo on your right hand?

    Are you me? My scar is from breaking it in 2 places, but all the rest lines up exactly. Left handed, good sense of actual direction, and even useless advice that only makes it more confusing.

    source

    • bizarroland@lemmy.world ⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

      It’s entirely possible. Are you a six foot one Native American dude?

      If so, like, hate to break it to you, but we might have dissociative identity disorder.

  Them: just make an L with your fingers for left

  Me as a kid: shit… Why can’t I remember which way L faces!?

  • parzival@lemmy.hkserv.space ⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

    That’s actually why I learned to just tell

    source
  • stray@pawb.social ⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

    If I need to write certain single capital letters for labeling purposes there’s like a 30% chance I need to look up which way the letter faces because both ways feel correct to me.

  My wife had a freckle on her right hand. It’s the only way she can tell left from right. Ask her for directions and watch her eyes check the back of her hands.

    I’m afraid the people who struggle to tell left from right apart will also have a problem remembering which way the letter L bends

      Is the backwards L used in any languages?

  In the time and country I grew up, almost everyone had the same Converse style trainers at school for gym class. I thought I would mark mine to prevent mixing them with the rest, so I put my initials on the front: first initial on the left, second on the right. When I was done, I looked down at my feet and realised I had just written (the equivalent of) L and R on the according sides. Not smort.

  I’ve made my own words for left and right using the image of the sun and shadows.

  On Earth we can see that shadows moves in one direction. We can call this direction sunwise. We can call the other other direction counter. So in fern to determine whether what is sunwise and counter, we have to know a little bit about the sun.

  In this image, we can say that the hitten, that which is being hit, will always see their shadow move sunwise. The opposite direction would be counter.

    What about at or beyond the equator from the language’s native region?

    source
• libre_warrior@lemmy.ml ⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

  The word right comes from Old English “right hand” meaning the correct hand. Whereas left means weak.

  Think of how most people are right handed, or “correct” handed. They usually use their correct hand, not their weak hand.
