Implications for language teaching:
🔁 Learners rely on what they see early and often.
📘 Early exposure to emotionally charged or simpler verbs boosts acquisition.
👩🏫 Carefully sequencing complex structures in the curriculum could better support long-term learning.

Ahmed al Ahmed, a Lebanese Muslim who owns a Sydney fruit shop, risked his life to disarm one of the Bondi Beach shooters.
His courage gives me hope amidst the horror and darkness. Muslims and Jews are not enemies. Our futures, in the Middle East and beyond, are intrinsically bound.
A true hero.

Mixed member proportional representation? Let’s have a National Citizens’ Assembly on Electoral Reform and see what the possibilities are beyond First Past The Post. @fairvote.ca
Many folks are tired of voting and not having their vote seem to count. They’re tired of writing to a politician and being ignored, or being told to take their concerns elsewhere. They’re tired of being told to vote to keep something bad out instead of voting for something good.
