You do not have to look to the past to know who you are—who you can be. You can choose, Basim.

I love the term “loanwords” because it implies that you intend to give them back.

Loanwords, loaned to the British Museum so

Would everyone like to know the best thing??? There are two types of borrowed word - loan words and calques. Loan words are words taken directly from the language i.e. tattoo, sushi, guillotine. Calques are words literally translated from the language before being borrowed i.e. beer garden, scapegoat, killer whale (incorrectly calqued, the original actually means whale killer which is a whole other post).

Did anyone notice the fun thing?

Loan word is a calque (German lehnwort lit. Loan+word) and calque is a loan word (French calque - tracing or imitation). Have a good day!

SHADOWHEART

I make a fan art of her with Boccioni’s influence.

I wanted to give dynamism, movement to the sharites who surround her. Everyone moves, including her, but her intentions are not the same as Shar's soldiers.

She has already understood her fate.
