Standing in the kitchen, stirring soup for supper and feeling grateful for the simple things that made life good today: warm sunshine, falling leaves, pumpkin pie and walking hand in hand with my love. Happy Friday

Studying in an awsome ancient library in Bologna (Italy)  ☙ Alma mater Studiorum  ❧

It was such a great pleasure to explore and stay in one of the most magnificent library I have ever seen. It has a great history on his back and we can see it from the picture on the walls all around, including the cieling. 

The campus is welcoming and quiet, the main subjects are: 

➸ engeneering;

➸ medicine;

➸ economy and management;

➸ cultural goods and languages;

➸ sciences.

The Studiorum was bor in 1088 and it has a seat in a lot of cities, even in Buenos Aires.

[linguisticmaps]

“and” identical to “with” 

In these languages the conjunction “and” is the same as “with” and vice-versa. There’s no distinction between the addition and comitative meanings in the lexicon, at least. 

It’s widespread in many Niger-Congo and Nilo-Saharan languages, Sino-Tibetan, Japanese, some Austronesian and native american languages.
