I ask myself who is the “We” She is talking about.
Definitly not JW.
Maybe She is a wanna-be.

i guess you can be physically out, like in a huge way, but definitely mentally in.. serena williams claims she won't be celebrating her daughter's first birthday.. i did know people like that, raised as a jw but never actually baptizing.
that didn't mean they were not messed up in the head though..

So sad. My jw family shared this news in a family app.
I have to hold my self giving a reaction.
The Orwellian world of JW's, I shoulld say.

g. was binge watching on amazon prime the serie the man on the high castle.
because my interest in history subjects a good choice!
what i mentioned was the family of john smith, the obergruppenfuhrer.
I scared about the John Smith family.
It could be JW's.
Could I be a nazi in an alternatieve history? In a same family?
I think you know the answer.

seriously.. https://www.wuv.de/marketing/unternehmer_sichert_sich_marken_der_jehovas.
businessman felt harassed by jws, so he found that word marks "der wachtturm" and "erwachet!
" (german versions of "the watchtower" and "awake!
Fun (:

just though i'd start a thread devoted to languages, dialects/sociolects and accents, with the idea being that posters can comment on any language, or dialect or accent of any language, on this thread.. any phrases, expressions or idioms that you find interesting are also welcome.
first, the subject of english accents came up on another thread.. the british isles have many different types of accent (although many of the dialects may be dying out), and if i start to take a closer look, i can't help but see 'patterns' .... in received pronunciation of standard english, the letter r is pronounced initially, between vowels, and after consonants, e.g.
red, arrow, break.
Loveunieetcetera, the problem with English spoken by Dutch people is that it is too direct.
Like "I thank you from the bottom of my heart".
And misjudge replies like "that's interesting" for real.
And we give our real opinion.
If you ask a dutchmen his opinion, you get a real answer. "Do you like my new shoes" can be replied with "No, I prefer an other model".

What I mentioned was the family of John Smith, the obergruppenfuhrer. It felt acurate, a family acting in a social system, a group, in their case the SS.
It could be a JW family. Organization first.
It could be a fading family, too. Knowing it is a way of living, high moral standards, pure and clean, until you wake up, due to a reason in this case the sickness of the son. Working a way out.

Even in out tiny country Kingdom of the Netherlands (aka Holland) every city and region has dialects).
What I find special is that if I watch a Scandinavian TV serie (Danish, Swedish, Norwegian etc) I can understand a lot of words, that are the same or similar to us.
German we understand because Dutch is a "low German" language.
English is very similar to the Frisian language, the language of our region Friesland.
Most Dutch speak and understand English because we have many English TV series and subtitled to Dutch.
G.
do you remember those families where all the sons and daughters had weird biblical names?.
i recall a " machlon" , "eunice" , even a "jehosafath".
can you believe it..
Milton , Nathan etc.

this letter was posted on the aust and nz facebook group this week.. it is self explanatory!

Organization first, second and third.
Humans zero.
