Well, I got that dreaded warning that I don't have enough followers for the Partner Program, so here I am getting serious about committing to writing. My first step is to stop by authors I like and show that yes, I'm picking up what you're throwing down. I'm committing to follow, like, and comment meaningfully, and I'm hoping for the same, but I'll settle for a kind Follow Back from anyone who reads this! My currently best-loved piece appears to be this one: https://nottheacademy.medium.com/lost-intranslation-why-netflixs-neon-genesis-evangelion-is-so-problematic-fbac79113a8c

I was interested with this piece in particular, Andy, because teaching Communication classes is how I pay for my Medium account. :) You've put together a great vocabulary list here. I'd love to see you do a follow-up that addresses any similarities in grammar, syntax, stress, intonation, etc. I think too often people learn a lot of vocabulary from studying books about a language, only to find that when spoken it is much harder than they imagined!
