Question for fluent non-native English speakers: did you explicitly learn this at any point, or did you just pick it up?https://twitter.com/propensive/status/916681012368855040 …

1. You just pick it up 2. It's not as easy as that list. There are many naturally occuring counter examples.

Yeah, the list feels like it's simplistic and a bit too formal for something which presumably just evolved naturally.

I'm certainly comfortable with some pairs of adjectives appearing either way round.

On Twitter where I'm optimising for characters, or just generally? ;)

It's my impression it goes beyond shortening messages - but your english is excellent none the less
