comment Is there a standard, most common, or most neutral Spanish term for “chat room”?
@vartec: "messenger" usually means a one-on-one conversation, not a chat room; at least in English, and in Mexican Spanish... is it understood differently in Spain?

comment Suffixes used to transform an adjective into a noun
It is... but I've also asked the moderators to make it community wiki, same as the question I copied from EL&U. (The fact that they haven't yet probably means they have some reason not to want to... shrug). I asked that question in part to test the waters here... if you think it's inappropriate, you ought to VtC :)

Hauser: I don't think the comments are the appropriate place for a long discussion on the purpose of SE sites. It has been hashed out thuroughly many times, but if you think it needs additional discussion for this new site, I'd encourage a meta post.

Only a single answer can be "accepted" as correct. And you are right, there are many "list answers" on SE, but most of the ones that are still open are left for historical reasons.

@vartec: Are women heavier drinkers in Slavic-speaking regions than in Latin-speaking ones? ;)

comment Is there a standard, most common, or most neutral Spanish term for “chat room”?
I've heard chatear most often used to describe online chatting. If I tell someone estoy platicando, they ask ¿por teléfono, o en linea? But if I say estoy chateando, they know immediately. But I would guess that chatear is a Spanglish word, and likely most common in Mexico.

There are two problems with a list-question of this type, and neither is that the list would be infinitely long. 1) It solicits multiple corret/partial answers, making it impossible to choose the "correct" one. 2) As a reference material for future visitors, it makes finding the specific info they need harder, because they'll have to dig through the entire question. Having said that, your recent edit narrows the scope significantly, and thus makes it a better questions.

comment “ir a «infinitive»” vs. future tense
ir a.. is more flexible than the strict "future tense", in that it can, for example, refer to the past, as well... fui a..., iba a... etc.
