Portuguese: Rosa, Margarida (Daisy), Floribela (“beautiful flower”), Dália (Dhalia), Íris, Violeta, Jasmim, Magnólia, Flor (literally “flower”), Gardénia, Hortência (Hydrangea), Florência, Liliana (from Lily), Jacinta (Hyacinth). I know personally women with all but four of these names.

This in Portuguese, where I currently live, but I have no reason to believe you won’t find them in Brazil or other Portuguese speaking countries as well…

Kiam oni ne plenigas kampon, la ruĝa erarmesaĝo pri tio estas en la angla.

Ĉu vi konsideris uzi vortaron por aldoni la signifojn de konataj vortoj? Eble tio helpus komencantojn.

Is the “everything is a rental and you use it on sufferance until we say so” bullshit so ingrained now that people are no longer able to conceive of other ways for things to work?

More than one group of custodians, ideally with conflicting interests, watching one another? Essentially some system of checks and balances?

Different worldviews, new ways to reason about existing issues, raised awareness of other problems, cultures, people. And straight out more knowledge about many things (even if you read only fiction). Overall, you can move forward from a perhaps more simplistic version of the world.

Also, just the increased ability to read and understand stuff should not be underestimated. Many people can read, as in putting letters together to form words, but not read in the sense of understanding anything beyond the most basic of sentences. You’ll get scammed less often. get better deals, etc.

Was going to post this as well. Just replayed it again, never gets old!
Portugal, so we’d go with Moonspell!
OTOH, if you build a playlist manager for playlists everyone can add to, you make sure nothing anyone adds will break it…
