that's a good idea  

[kittyfox_kumiko]

Still, it means more in English than the Japanese word, which I've been told has no direct translation.  

[Kioya Sato]

yeah, i've heard that from a few people
Language is a strange thing  

[kittyfox_kumiko]

There are tons of words in other languages that don't translate directly into English. Someone wrote a book about it.  

[Kioya Sato]

umm..what an occupation  

[kittyfox_kumiko]

I think it was probably just a side thing. xd  

[Kioya Sato]

that's good to hear  

[kittyfox_kumiko]

Still, I want that book. I love words. mrgreen  

[Kioya Sato]

i'm not big into words mostly because i can't spell
but numbers, numbers i can handle  

[kittyfox_kumiko]

Numbers and I don't always agree...

I'm a writer and also a big language person. I just started my college Latin class today.  

[Kioya Sato]

jeez more words now in a different lanugage, i barely get through spanish class  

[kittyfox_kumiko]

I was too young to know how I did in my Spanish class. lol

I like Latin. I even made my Stargate OC fluent in it. Then again, it's pretty much her native language.  

[Kioya Sato]

they use a lot of latin for ancient, i feel bad for the researchers for that show  

[kittyfox_kumiko]

They don't do it right, either. They had one mostly good sentence, and that was Jack's line "Ego volo novum locus." The adjective and subject don't agrre, though, which ruins it. xp  

[Kioya Sato]

well they can get away with it becasue technically it's not latin, it's ancient
