The Hammond Times, Indiana, December 6, 1944
Finnish word of the day: taivaanranta (n.), literally “sky’s shore” or “(the) shore of the sky”, meaning ‘horizon’. The word “horisontti” also exists in Finnish, and both horisontti and taivaanranta are used quite interchangeably in speech and writing.
“It’s a most distressing affliction to have a sentimental heart and a skeptical mind.”
— Nagulb Mahfouz, Sugar Street
