Wow, I’m pretty impressed with BC for this.

Having font support really legitimizes a language. It’s basically impossible to make digital content if you can’t type in your language, so this is really unlocking a lot for the readers and writers of all those languages!

I love your question! I think these words are examples of a trochee!

In English poetic metre and modern linguistics, a trochee (/ˈtroʊkiː/) is a metrical foot consisting of a stressed syllable followed by an unstressed one.

It’s usually easy to recognize a word that’s a trochee because it’ll sound like kids TV show title: Teenage Mutant Ninja Power Ranger Mega Turtles lol.

In this case, it’s trochaic dimeter because there’s two trochees. “LET’S-go RAN-gers!” You may have heard of iambic pentameter, somehow that one always seems popular to people. Well an iamb is just the reverse of a trochee, and pentameter means you’d put five of them on each line.

Now that you know what trochees are, you’re gonna see 'em everywhere. Or maybe that’s just me lol.

Edit: For extra fun, what do you think is going on with the clapping afterwards? I feel like we’re doing something with this at the end, but it’s late and I should go to sleep hahah. Good luck!

I’ve played it a lot, and I’d recommend it!

I’m a huge fan of using it as an ice breaker if you’re meeting new people. It’s a fairly social game, with “low-stakes” negotiations on the table, so I think it’s a great way to see how’s people think, interact, and cooperate (or not haha).

I love how different it can be depending on the audience. My partner’s family is… almost too wholesome? They help each other out a lot lol. My tech & numbers friends are fiercely competitive in their trading lmao.

Let me know if you have any questions about it!

Edit: If you have a set that includes “3rd Bean Field” cards, just ignore 'em. Later editions removed them because statistically they’re almost always a bad idea, so they’re really just a trap lol.

If you’re open to a dexterity games, I’d highly recommend Animal Upon Animal, Rhino Hero, or Click Clack Lumberjack for that age group. Even left to their own devices, I’ve seen a group of highly concentrated 6 year olds stack animals surprisingly high lmao.

Considering he’s already into boardgames, King of Tokyo is probably in scope, or will be soon! If not, the mood of Shadows in the Woods (Waldschattenspiel) can be just so good for young kids!

I’m having some trouble thinking of collaborative kids games, but maybe Dixit? That might be an 8 year olds game tbh, I don’t think most 5 year olds are subtle enough yet lol.

Good luck!

@da_g Yeah, I actually basically do slap everything in one folder on Obsidian lol. I love that I don’t need to spend time organizing folders, but I still find things easily by taking “paths” through my vault!

Ah, no [[links]]? Well. I’m a couple thousand notes deep on that format hahah.

I don’t think this is for me, but I’ve given your post a boost and an upvote! Good luck!

Has anyone used both Obsidian and Trillium? I use Obsidian, so that’s my reference point here.

1. How does using Trillium feel compared to Obsidian? Rich text is nice, but I actually like how much Obsidian gets out of your way.

Edit: Hmm, so hierarchy trees means things need to be in one place on the tree, but it can be “cloned” so it can have multiple locations on the tree. That seems like a very complicated way to day “in obsidian, you can link any note to any other note.” Am I misunderstanding anything here?

1. How’s the conversion process? I have a lot of notes lol, and I find the [[Link]] format very convenient. It looks like this only wants to use text, which is fine but it very slightly breaks my train of writing thought as I prepare the link properly.
