You can translate in at least 5 ways:
1. Transcribe the sound
2. Translate word for word
3. Translate the root words
4. Translate the idea
5. Translate into or via a metaphor relevant to the target language

Once they understand the concept —or at least know of it— you can reveal to them the convenient existence of a word for it in the vocabulary of the other language.

This is especially useful for monoglots, who often struggle with conceptualising anything not explicitly labelled by their native language.

Communication tip:

When explaining a concept to someone that doesn't exist in their language, you need to bypass their bamboozle filters.

Don't start by telling them the word or about the concept — this is what will trigger their bamboozle filter.

Instead, start by explaining the concept.

#SlopCode is the new #VibeCode — and don't let anyone forget it

The grim truth
The solution was to run file compression on the the Windows OS files and on most of the programme files. I reclaimed about 7GB, and finally Photoshop would launch.
If you are peaceful during times of systemic violence, you are not peaceful, you are enforcing the stance of the oppressors. And you do so because the systemic violence isn't affecting you or people close to you.
Photoshop is such a lil twerp. Even with 9GB free space, it refuses to run because "the scratch disks are full". Well I even attached a second SSD with 70GB free but it didn't accept that (despite it working fine last week)
so like will there be a public notice when Armageddon officially starts or what
