the Phonetic Temperature Theory is a theory that states that as average temperature of a native speaker's location decreases over a long span of time, the verb-consonant ratio of the native speaker's words decreases, and that speech quickens and hardens in colder temperature. Secondly, This theory also states the vice versa; as average temperature of a native speaker's location increases over a long span of time, the verb-consonant ratio of the native speaker's words increases, and that speech slows and smooth-ens in warmer temperature. Thirdly, this theory also states that pronunciation changes quicker when the average temperature of a native speaker's location changes quicker, and that pronunciation changes slower when the average temperature of a native speaker's location changes slower.
Person 1: How can I predict when the pronunciation of a word will change?
Person 2: with Phonetic Temperature Theory, we can do this by 1. knowing how long the current pronunciation has existed for, 2. knowing the differences in local average temperature at the beginning of pronunciation usage to now, 3. knowing previous pronunciation of the preceding form of the word, and using IPA slope to predict future pronunciation and use multiplication (local average temperature now - local average temperature at the beginning of pronunciation usage)/(time between beginning of pronunciation usage and now), if the value is positive (meaning the local temperature got warmer) then shift clockwise on the IPA chart (k -> g), this is the reasoning for why Latin "catta" became "gato" because the Spanish/Portuguese climates are slightly warmer than the Ancient Roman climate.

For example: "The contraposit of 'If it rains, then the streets get wet' is 'If the streets are not wet, then it didn't rain.'"
The contraposit of "If it's raining, then the streets are wet" is "If the streets are not wet, then it's not raining."
I took the original statement and formulated the contraposit to test the logical equivalence.
When trying to prove a statement false, it's often helpful to derive and examine the contraposit instead.
The professor challenged us to identify the contrapositives for various claims to better understand inverse relationships.
Logically, a statement and its contraposit must have the same truth value, so disproving one disproves the other.
The lawyer cleverly argued using the contraposit to show why her client could not have committed the crime.
Understanding contraposition allows you to catch logical flaws and manipulations when arguments swap conditionals for their contrapositives.
Geometry proofs often rely on formulating and proving the contraposit to demonstrate equivalences.
I got confused following his reasoning until I mapped out the original statement and its contraposit side-by-side.
Deriving the contraposit is a good way to test your comprehension of a conditional claim.

The phenomenon where something or someone runs too fast and therefore doesn't have enough energy and or motivation to run enough distance.
1: Man, I shouldn't had done 50 400s on the track cuz now I barely broke 46 on my 10k.
2: So you've got hypodistance?
1: Yeah, I'm hypodistanced.

Person A: Didn't you only finish one problem of your math homework last night?
Person B: No, I finished all of them.
Person A: Are you sure about that? I looked in your bag and I saw that your homework was not complete.
Person B: Don't gasunlight me, I left that homework assignment at school today.
Person A: How am I gasunlighting you?
Person B: You are manipulating me by questioning my powers of reasoning by understating what I finished. I didn't just finish one problem, I finished all seven problems, ask Ms. Goofyson, she'll say the same thing.
Person A: We'll see about that. (calls teacher)
Person B: No, I finished all of them.

Person A: Didn't you eat seven cookies this morning?
Person B: No, I ate one.
Person A: Are you sure about that? I looked in the jar and I saw that there were no more cookies.
Person B: Don't gasoverlight me, I was at work all morning.
Person A: How am I gasoverlighting you?
Person B: You are manipulating me by questioning my powers of reasoning by overexaggerating what I ate. I didn't eat seven cookies, I had only one, ask my boss, I had my lunch break near his office.
Person A: We'll see about that. (calls boss)
