There's a lot of houses like that in a few areas here. Like, somebody decided it was important to be able to take the stairs from the second floor directly into every first floor room. Takes up half the square footage of the place.

something about the lighting makes that house especially spooky to me. the architecture is bad and that's the highlight, but man houses can really unsettle me. it's a weird kind of fear too. it's not like oh a jump scare is coming kind of scare, and it's not like silent hill pt where you really want out of there because that's not fair. you know something bad is going to happen or is happening and so you're on edge. this is just sort of like ... no... i'll bet the neighbourhood is incredibly off putting also

No! It'll be so incredible for hide and seek, and spotlight when we're older!

Hiding in the nook so you know just when somebody's coming down and you can drive out your remote control car to surprise them.

"I used to actually teach with a textbook that said English has no infixes," says English Professor Anne Curzan. "I would have to go into class and say, 'That's not true. It's just that the textbook doesn't want to talk about them.'"

Are infixes common in other languages?

I took a wild guess and found this, but hopefully our more stoic dogposter can provide more insight
Hungarian has 2 forms which can be added to the verb stem to modify the meaning. These are sometimes referred to as infixes, but they are not true infixes because they are not inserted inside another morpheme.
