[udmurtian-word-a-day]

Udmurtia, or the Udmurt Republic, is a federal subject of Russia located in the Volga region, west of the Ural Mountains. It is known for its rich folklore, traditional textiles, and the Udmurt language, which is closely related to Komi. Unfortunately, right now this language is slowly disappearing and the only thing I can do is try to popularize it here, that's why I'm gonna post random Udmurtian words with translation and transcription daily.

Мар бен, гажаса ӧтиськом блогам!

[wrongerzyan]

Uivötsexual/ romantic/ other attraction: a term for someone who experiences an attraction to someone in their dreams. This non-person is neither a real person you know, nor a character, nor your original character, but rather simply an NPC in the dream. For you, this may feel like living in another reality. The term comes from the Udmurt word уйвӧт, which translates into English as "dream"
