    Joder if it was realistic?

    Google translate says joder is fuck, would you mind explaining?

    I hope you don’t mind me trying to learn spanish through your memes, haha

      Correct orthography would be ¡Joder, sí que lo hacen realista!

      Damn, they do make it realistic.

      Sí as in yes, “sí que” is almost always sarcastic.

      The si there is not a conditional, it’s a reaffirmation. IIRC reaffirmation “si” should have tilde (sí) but average people never remember that rule (they should have also used a comma)

      A literal translation would be “Fuck, they do make it realistic”

      Simplified:

      “Fuck, it’s very realistic!”

      “Fuck, it do be realistic!”

        but it’s such a pain in the ass to do it from platform to platform. lol

          In phone, you can use the spanish keyboard as english keyboard, but if you don’t like looking at the ñ on your right, just add the spanish keyboard to the list of used keyboard and simply press the globe button.

          这就是我写汉子的方式

          In computer you also have the list of keyboards and you wind+space to change

            i’m a foss user and the keyboard combinations are both different from distribution to distribution and even between versions sometimes.

            i used to commit them to memory, but dropped it after all the distro hopping i’ve had to do.
