Linguistics@mander.xyz•Idea for making a cipher, based on vowel spaceEnglish
1·1 day agoFor m i’d say the opposite is k. M is a labial consonant and k is a glottal consonant.
For h i’d say f or v.
For r i’d say there really isn’t an opposite since it’s made in the middle of the mouth.

I’m american and I don’t feel that way. If you’re offended by any of the posts calling out the way some americans act then you should examine yourself, not complain about europeans.
I’m not offended by posts shitting on americans who act a certain way because I don’t act like that.
