I need someone to tell me I shouldn't name a character or ship Mathimos. I know what it means. I should be kind.
However, Umingmak is totally going in.

🤷 Mind you while drug stores are called "Drogerie" or "Drogeriemarkt" in German. But for whatever reason that's okay. #FunWithLanguages

Sometimes it happens that my brain in passing makes very silly things out of words. Like just reading a German recipe title for "Schweinelendchen" as "Pig little miseries" instead of "Small pork loins". Well, for the pig it probably was the first tbh...

I love how dramatic direct translation can sound b/w languages.
Ex: “Tengo hambre/sed” from Spanish to English is “I have hunger.”
Do you have a favorite direct translation? #funwithlanguages #spanish #english #multilingual #languages #randomthoughts

There's a Papageno in every German outlaw according to AI, which translates German "ein Vogelfreier" (an outlaw; literally someone as free as a bird) as "birdman".
