@cor3zone:
> If there is nothing that would teach him, he literally couldn't learn
Never heard of self-study?
Yes that was nitpicking, but you were the one using the hyperbolic 'literally couldn't'
> Only after that did you state that he "wouldn't bother". You literally backpedalled from 'reasons he can't learn' to 'he doesn't want to learn'
Because, if you didn't read the response to me, Hizzle asked me this:
>If you could come up with one valid reason why MC from his point of view should be putting 0 effort into trying to communicate that he wants to learn her language, I'm all ears
I didn't backpedaled, he asked a different question (why the MC wouldn't/shouldn't put effort into learning), I answered (other interests)
And if you'd go back and read again, in my reply to you I said this
>So it's not that he 'doesn't want to learn', he 'doesn't care to learn (anymore)'
Note the ANYMORE part.
>And "care to [verb]" literally means "want to [verb]" here. If he can't be bothered to(care), it means he has no desire to(want). English, friend.
I fail to find such definition, here's the one I have.
care
/ker/
verb
1.
feel concern or interest; attach importance to something.
THIS 'interest' is my usage of care. The degree of desire is different. Like the difference between just 'dislike' and 'hatred' or 'loathe'.
>Did I add any point for or against either being able to learn, or wanting to learn? Did I add any reasons he couldn't/wouldn't? That he could/would?
Because that is not your argument, I literally just said this:
>You argued that I pivoted, I said I didn't, if that wasn't argument I'm not sure what qualifies as argument to you.
> If you didn't, you'd just gloss over my comment. I was aggressive, but you responded more so. Maybe mellow out, and enjoy some manga?
Right back at you? It's you who decided to start 'analyzing' my argument instead of 'gloss over' it to begin with.
You were aggressive, I respond in kind because that is the kind of person I am and if you keep responding, so will I and I can't guarantee I'll put in that much effort into actually making logical replies down the line.
