  • Oh, no, it’s wrong grammatically too, they just don’t teach this unless you study linguistics. Most of all languages with fixed word order and some others have a natural order of adjectives. Tom Scott has a great vid about it.

    Yes, Russian has an adjective order too. “A big old blue car” would be «большая старая синяя машина», saying «синяя большая старая машина» implies that “big old car” is a specific term.

    What’s specifically asinine about it? Are you implying that bringing it up could’ve been better if it’d happened more often?

    I have just made you aware that this is, however sad, a thing that happens and people can talk about it. While I too disagree with the opinion in the OP post, you’re very much advised to not try and moral police this sub, because cringe and weird takes would appear here on a regular basis and you’ll be quite frequently offended to the core if you take it all close to the heart.

    Please don’t take it out on the strangers on the Internet.
