I oversimplified a bit! Sorry!

Words always shift over time and borders. The words “recu” and “receive/receipt” are pretty close and used to be closer. To be more accurate it was “receite” when they adopted it from French. Compared to Latin “recepta” which has a hard P in it. So adding “P” from Latin to the spelling as “receipt” but leaving the pronunciation as Anglo-French “receite” was the most silly part.

English is a hilarious mess. The word “receite” originated from Latin but came to England through France at which point it had mutated to modern pronunciation as “recu”, so they shoved a few extra and silent letters in there and spelled it “receipt” to pretend they got it from Latin even though they kept pronouncing it more French.

I loved this game. Puzzles that I felt I needed to understand the plot and culture to solve, made the world so much more alive.

“We didn’t use to have mental issues back then. We had a lot of people drinking themselves to death and stuff but I fail to see any relation here.”

“Well, I also was good at finding faults in anyone who were trying to improve some things and attack them for not improving all things.”

People picking leaves off plants and damaging them is clearly shitty, and I can see why they would prevent “no it fell off by itself honest” as an excuse.

That’s shitty. It effectively removes the ability to communicate in anything but English.

E.g. some frequently used words that are non-slurs: fag (nordics, meaning class/course), retard (french train stations will display this when trains are delayed). Living in Norway, I have frequently been frustrated when MMOs wouldn’t let me talk to friends in my native language without censoring or even handing out bans.
