Phylogenetically, apes are monkeys and so are you

Yeah in the same way that Québécois folks are Mainland frenchies

Technically we're all just really really really weird fish too

Your mom is an eukaryote.

You're just an especially active proto-fungus!

I’m not trying to correct you, but I would have said “a eukaryote,” and now I’m really curious about which is right. Does anyone know if there’s a resource to look this up?

I think you're correct, in English it starts with "yoo".

I would definitely say “a euphemism,” but I don’t know if that’s actually correct or just my dialect. It could also be like history or herb, where either is acceptable.
