“louis was lying about this” “lestat must be lying about that” look this is the lying liars lie show, as far as im concerned not a single event has actually happened and it’s all just vibes

[annexlearnedhazard]

Welcome to The Vampire Chronicles where everything is hearsay and the truth doesn't matter.

[lestatthevamp]

I can't believe there are people watching the Vampire Chronicles shows and going, "Louis is the sane one."

My brother in Christ, Louis is not the normal one. Lestat isn't normal. Armand isn't normal. Everyone in this series is absolutely out of their minds.

Y'all are just absolutely committed to creating humor I cannot explain to my spouse, aren't you?

@ people in non-English speaking countries, does your language use things that “come from English” that are just… not actually used widely in English at all?

Like some places in E and SE Asia will abbreviate “WC” for restroom, especially for English translation, but I don’t know a single person in the English speaking world who still calls a bathroom a water closet, and I’ve never even heard of it abbreviated to WC even though it’s obvious how this came around

[salvadorbonaparte]

Yes! "WC" is very common in many European countries as well. In Germany we also have really strange examples like "Handy" (mobile phone) and "Public Viewing" (a public watch party, typically of a sports event).

[huntressofartemis001]

in Brazil we have “WC” too, although i do think it used to be more common when i was a child than it is now. we also use “pen drive” to say flash drive, not sure why, and we use “notebook” to mean a laptop (i know thats not something they dont say in english but it just means something completely different in english lol, sometimes i still struggle to say laptop when talking about it because my brain wants to say notebook so bad but i know thats another thing entirely)

[salvadorbonaparte]

"Notebook" is also very commonly used in Germany. I also just remembered "Beamer" (projector).

[researchwithaciir]

same in Mexico as Brazil about WC, more common when I was a child but I cannot think of anything else

[whyannitheone]

also in mexico pancakes are called hotcakes for some reason

[researchwithaciir]

oh that's because the brand that sells most pancake mix in Mexico is called Hotcakes (made by Gamesa), just as chocolate milk powder is called Chocomilk (the one with Pancho Pantera as a mascot)

[spanishskulduggery]

There are a handful of these that I've seen in Spanish so I'll just list some of the more common ones:

el esmoquin = tuxedo [this comes from a "smoking jacket" which you would not see in anything outside of Downton Abbey today it just feels very antiquated Edwardian era]

el váter / el wáter = toilet [in some countries; this is another term for WC or "water closet"]

el vagón = train car [all of the "cars" on a train are a vagón and this comes from "wagon" - though this isn't a covered wagon which you'd probably see as either el carruaje "carriage", el carro "cart" (now "car" in lots of places), or la carreta / carretilla or some variation - this is ONLY used for trains]

la cotufa = popcorn [Venezuelan; las cotufas are the Venezuelan word for "popcorn" but it's derived from "corn to fry" which would literally be maíz de/para freír... different countries have different words for "popcorn" in general though, the default word people are taught is las palomitas which is literally "little doves"]

There are also a handful of words in Spanish that are from brand names; el klínex/clínex or el kleenex is the word for "tissue" but it's Kleenex

Another is el rímel which is "mascara" but it's named after Rimmel (though that's a surname and French but still)

And I know of a handful of words that are close but would sound off to an English speaker:

el parking = "parking lot" [we do say "parking" like "oh there's no parking" meaning "nowhere to park" but some Spanish-speaking countries uses it as "parking lot" - a place designated for cars to park]

el kínder = kindergarten [some countries say el kínder which is technically from German but we would say "kindergarten" because if you wrote "kinder" it would sound like "more kind" - and in German kinder is plural "children"; but Spanish can use it as singular]

The other word that sort of surprised me when I was learning Spanish was el daltonismo or daltónico/a which is "colorblindness" and "colorblind" respectively

In my head, I assumed it would be something related to la ceguera "blindness" or ciego/a "blind"

But it's named after John Dalton who researched colorblindness and the term for red-green colorblindness and the umbrella term for some variations of colorblindness is "Daltonism" but I had never heard that particular term in English until much later
