>>507322812>your English is probably better than hood blacks here in America kekFucking kek, I hope so, my pronunciation is decent and I try to be as clear and understandable as I can be, but the accent is still there lmao. People have said it's quite pleasant to listen to and that it doesn't sound like... Like... Y'know the mexican/Spain's accent? Where you're kinda pronouncing everything as if it was in spanish/latin? I try to avoid that as much as I can, it's not a good look, or sound lol.
>im very expressive when i talk, i throw my arms around and look like a dictator speaking lelWe pretty much do that and do speak loudly, kind of like in a football match or like if you were in a coliseum kek. It's not necessarily all the time but the hands and body are a whole 'nother language too. Faces, eyebrows, grunts. It's easy to figure out what we feel or think just from looking at us, unless you're a [[porteรฑo]].
>Grapefruit and gingerI've seen yerba mate packages with ginger in them, tried it, and... It wasn't that different surprisingly, but... Grapefruit...? This is conflicting my monke brain. Worst thing is due to a medication I take I have to avoid grapefruits or the effects can wear off/get fucked up. (Please be careful with grapefruit if you take antidepressants or antipsychotics, they can increase your risk of serotonin syndrome)
(No, it doesn't increase happiness, more serotonin doesn't fix depression) (You'll just vomit and be feverish)
Man, I'd tell you to try mate for yourself but getting the porongo/little vase and the metal straw must be kind of difficult in the US. There's a national yerba being exported there, called Cachamate. Even though the British poster said we buy everything from China, we export quite a bunch of stuff to everywhere in the world. Syria loves yerba mate for example, they're like our #1 international buyer out of South Am!
