Not your same ol' love story

I use Google Translate a lot.  Mostly to make sure what I'm typing is correct, but also to translate song titles.  I have a lot of non-Englist artists in my Spotify library due to trying to learn various languages.  Also, Eurovision.  But I digress.

I was translating the title of a Romanian song this morning and noticed this.



Who knew that Google Translate had Romani as one of its languages?  Not me, for sure.  Otherwise, that would have been getting some use.  Hahaha.  And as an interesting side not, the Q'eqchi' langauge is apparently a Mayan language spoken in Mexico, Guatamala, and Belize. 

Okay, enough of my idiocy.  Hope you're having a fantastic Tuesday and that it's not too terribly cold where you are today.  

Mind your damn business.

I’m adding pics of the kitties to make up for the rant I’m about to drop. Hahaha.

This was going to be a strictly cat-related post but I'll be damned if Kobo didn't give me a reason to laugh this morning.

Saw this on Facebook and got quite a laugh out of it.

Title: Cum Se Zice…?*
Fandom: Romani Detective Original Fiction
Pairing: Andrej Zeklos/James Rosewood/Zayne Reyes
Rating: PG-13
Word Count: 1,055
Summary: James spies Zayne doing something sketchy and calls him out on it, only to discover it’s not as sketchy as he thinks.
Author’s Note: Written because my random list of words today were the same as Zayne’s. Side note: the title means ‘How do you say…?’ and I thought it appropriate. Weird additional side note: the same phrase in Spanish is ‘Cómo se dice....’ Even though Spanish and Romanian come from the same Latin base, it sometimes weirds me out how similar the two languages are. French, as well. My older daughter picked up one of my books at home and said, “Hey, Romanian is a lot like French!” Thanks, kid, but that helps me not at all. And… I’m shutting up now, sorry. Because I have a weird third thing I want to mention but won’t. *zips lips*
