Is the terminology really so much in the minority?
[ Jiuqing is the latest in a handful of people who have questioned him saying chirurgeon. It's the word in his world, he's stunned so many people prefer doctor. ]
...and I'm sure all of us speak different languages, ourselves. Frankly, I'm surprised we can all understand each other.
I really wonder what it is, though... so many of the other words we're speaking to each other now are the same, but why the difference in those two words specifically?
I'm glad to hear I'm not driving you away with my questions!
[hmm maybe she should get started planting some of these herbs actually. she's gonna do that. i cannot remember if i already had her start doing that and i don't want to click thread from start and reread to double check please don't make fun of me if she started doing this five tags ago]
[ Me thinking this is such a rude question to ask but you do you Estinien. Also yeah Jiuqing has actually just been aggressively planting this entire time surprise. No, idr either it's fine she can have taken a break if she did. ]

[sorry you're just old-fashioned, estinien.]
no subject
... Doctor, then. In concept so far as I've heard, they seem to be the same thing.
[ He's going to have to get used to this. ]
no subject
I wonder what it is about your world that led the people there to favor that word... how fascinating.
no subject
...Pardon? I think it's just always been used.
[ Tfw you're a weirdo who understands dragon linguistics but not people linguistics. ]
no subject
But they mean the same thing, so why is it one word where you're from and a different one where I'm from? They're the same concept.
no subject
So like -- language?
The Domans don't use the same script as we Eorzeans, and they have their own language.
[ I'm pretty sure they do, they all just speak '''English''' for gameplay purposes but surely. ]

[ ...He's just shifting, crossing his arms. ]
Nay, you at least make tangential questions relevant. I'm not clawing to get away.

Hm. I think I'll leave you to your duties then.

I'll see you around, Estinien. Take care.

He's just bad at finding stuff to talk about :( don't say that I'm sad, me. ]
