Thank you for this information. It is something that helps me to understand Fosse a bit more. I think I am getting closer to Norwegian culture. Fosse ...

Thanks for your answer and point, Lionino. Lesson learned. I fully recommend this thread to you. I enjoyed discussing the meaning of silence, 'pauses'...

It has passed twenty days since I answered you in this thread. I was starting to read Fosse's trilogien. This book was translated by a Norwegian-Spani...

I agree mate!!!! And Granadilla has the same root as Dillahunty, etc. So fruits, apart from their vitamins, contain a juicy content of knowledge and u...

You are one of the top philosophers here (Don't be jealous, Banno!) Do you agree that folks don't have a clue about distinguishing a banana from a plá...

Wow! You know how to play the piano! That's amazing because - as far as I understand about music - the piano is one of the hardest instruments to play...

I took this photo yesterday evening in the park where I usually walk. Personally, I feel the winter sun is different from the autumn sun. Let me expla...

:smile: Coordination is your thing because you started music using percussion. Let me guess! Your first instrument was a xylophone!

Because the Canarian folks say banana instead of plátano. :sweat:

I know. That's what I tried to explain. When someone uses Spanish, they translate plátanos as bananas. They say banana to refer to that yellow fruit w...

Impressively perfect Spanish. Since I know you live in a Hispanic country, I guess you speak it fluently. I guess this because you wrote plátano inste...

Do you mean his soul or spirit? Agent Smith was banned like a year ago…

Merienda: A banana, a cup of coffee and mint flavor licorice.

Thank you for your explanation and clarification, friends. I understand you now. I sadly got into a 'false friend' word trap again. If I literally tra...

I still don't understand why you see it that way. But I absolutely respect your opinion. It is just I see it well written and easy to follow, but afte...

I get it, mate. I like your coordination to make this activity work. :smile:

:up: If @"Baden" needs an extension, it is granted immediately. A good choice because he puts in a commendable effort commenting on each story. Whatev...

I thought the same, and ended up with a similar conclusion when I finished reading the story. It is clever, indeed. But why do you consider it 'effort...

I erased the part where your name appeared. I think you don't like me nor shoutbox nature. But it is fine, we are not going to start a drama because o...

I think you are not used to the shoutbox rhetoric yet.

That name definitely rings a bell to me!

I personally believe Count Tom will manage all you are wondering about. Don't worry. He worked for the CIA and CIS. We don't know a better applicant f...

I can usually be a very good detective, but it is not something to brag about, honestly. One advice, Uncle Jamal: be cautious about that 'secret' cere...

I just noticed @"Count Timothy von Icarus" had been named as moderator. Well done, I think he will be suitable for the role. Why don't we hold a solem...

I think the use of ChatGPT for short stories should not be considered bad if it was used with good faith by the writer. When I finished my story, I di...

? I post from my phone in most cases, and I never have a problem in particular. With the only exception of not being able to use cursive. NO, por favo...

I miss autumn. I think it is the most poetic season. The sun appears different from the rest of the year. The rays of reflected sunlight are very beau...

Because you are the chief executive of the shoutbox, Hanover. I can't (and shouldn't) assume responsibility because I am just an employee. The Board o...

Well, Nabokov didn't like Don Quixote either. Dostoevsky inspired Freud thanks to familiar emotions, compassion, and the psychology of the characters....

Hmmm cosy :chin: I am thinking about Cee in northwestern Spain. My family used to spend the holidays there when I was a kid. Cee, Spain /uploads/resiz...

You can't accuse me of support fascism just for reading or veering towards Japanese culture. I think your reactions to my opinions have always been ex...

I enjoy reading Kazantzakis and these folks consider me a theist. Oh Jesus! By the way, I personally thought that you criticized me for being obsessed...

It's crazy how this thread causes more dispute among the members than in the Donald Trump or Gaza/Israel ones! This only means that literature is pret...

:up: :grin:

I was thinking on it... and I guess I understand now what you mean: there are three votes of 'five score', so it goes for 15 + one vote of 'three scor...

Sorry, but I do not get what you mean by 'score to date'. I see you posted it in other stories too. It doesn't make sense to me. You say '18' but this...

Well, yes. It is obvious that 'Espíritu' and 'Expirar' are somehow cognate or blood relative. More than Cuadrado o Púrpura, for sure. But remember! A ...

Lioninio... Not even close! They do not share the same root. I told you Old Castilian (or Vulgar Latin) holds a lot of 'false friend' words. You read ...

But my example proves precisely the opposite. Espíritu y Expirar have a different root, mate. Lionino... Are you trying to troll me again?

We were very close to having an Arabic language. Well, a big part of Andalusia is clearly influenced by our past of the Nasrid dynasty. Most of the ci...

It is one of the favorite books of Murakami, and it motivated him to become the successful writer he is nowadays. You don't like Murakami either, righ...

I know! But you used an emoji addressing me, and it makes me feel happy. :yum:

Jajajaja una leche!

Probably, they can share the same root. But be careful! Old Castilian can hold a lot of 'false friends' words! espíritu. Del lat. spir?tus. fantasma, ...

Finally! You just admitted French is Latin. :smile:

No, they aren't. At least in Spanish. Did you read my example?

I beg your pardon then, because I didn't follow your post enough and that's why my answer hasn't addressed what you said. I understood something diffe...

:up: Good point. I admit that I haven't seen it that way because I was focused on the role of the woman, not the husband, who appears at the end. Than...

And the granny? Latin. :snicker: Or... West Germanic, in the Indo-European language family?

It is not related, indeed. I don't know in Portuguese, but in Spanish, 'expirado' means when a deadline is gone. I studied law and the use of the word...
