View submission: What’s the weirdest “unwritten rule” everyone just follows?
maybe it's a kind of syntax? like, adjective syntax? adjectivial syntax? i dont think adjectivial is a word but it sounds good.
Like, we don't say "apple I the eat", we say "I eat the apple". Do other languages have similar rules on adjective stacking?

my spanish friends say they also have one, which is a little different from english, so at least with closer related languages yes. would love to hear from someone who speaks a more distant/unrelated language family and see if the same applies!
