Germans were really onto something when they invented the word Feierabend

[thatswhywelovegermany]

feiern = to celebrate

der Abend =evening

der Feierabend = end of the work day, finishing time, closing time, quitting time

In light of my ß appreciation post making its round again, can we also talk about how much the cursive ß fucks

Like look at that. This is the gay sex of writing.

The word bairn (child), which is used in Scots, Northern and Scottish English, is closely related to born and to the verb to bear. These words all come from a root meaning 'to carry'. When a baby is born it's been carried to term. The infant is then carried around. Click the infographic for more.

I have missed you every evening since you left; it’s easy to get used to the good. (Schiller to Goethe, May 5, 1792)

… I wish rain and pleasant cooling soon. But nothing so much as being near you again soon. (Goethe to Schiller, July 6, 1799)

… I am close to you with everything that lives and thinks within me. (Schiller to Goethe, October 8, 1794)

Just a small sign of life. I can’t get used to not saying anything to you and not hearing from you for 8 days. (Schiller to Goethe, September 13, 1795)

Soon I will have the pleasure of hugging you again and asking your thoughts about a hundred things. (Goethe to Schiller, November 10, 1797)

It is a real comfort to me to have you near me again; Never has a separation seemed as long to me as the current one… (Schiller to Goethe, November 13, 1796)

I’m not coming today, my dear, but I hope soon. (Goethe to Schiller, October 25, 1795)

Farewell, I long for a line from you. (Schiller to Goethe, March 27, 1805)

scheissdreck ist das wort des Tages

[leopardheart-deactivated2023022]

milk-thistle is an example of a word where the tongue barely moves… basilica is an example of a word where the movement involved is like a seesaw. opium as a word is circular to say. to say a word like violence involves a bit of a forced pause in the mouth where the o connecting the syllables is. etymologists trace the word’s history, poets feel the word’s impact, singers listen to the word’s musicality, linguists tell the word to go this way and that way, and the word is gracious to all in return
