Russian of the day.

[tyggerjai]

From bunnikins - the girls in wardrobe have learned the very useful phrase "Nadem'shtani", meaning "Put your pants on". They need to learn "Put your shirt on" for Roman, the 19 year old straps artist, who will take his off at any opportunity. Not that they necessarily complain, given his physique. Personally, I'm unlikely ever to need "Nadem'shtani" without first having learned "Take your pants off". Or possibly "Nice lats, wanna fuck?". Mmm, aerialists.

My Russian of the day is more mundane - "Doz avtra", see you tomorrow.

In other poly-linguistic news, I found myself saying "Da, esta bom, merci". Which is "Yes" in russian, "That's good" in Portuguese, and "Thank you" in French. I'm assuming the person I was talking to spoke at least one of those.

Love is: making sure the littlest Russian gets the littlest umbrella for their flight out of the garage. Home is: hunting down a 6' beach umbrella and a 6" cocktail umbrella to mess with her head.

man, african third world pidgeon is crazy like your Russian/pourtugee/french. Thankfullly most of it is english, but there is plenty of pourtugee, dutch and french thrown into the mix. I actually get by quite effortlessly, until I start drinking and think I can speak fluent everything. And that's exactly what comes out of my mouth, a word salad of foreign words for what I want to say. Only they are taken from all the dribs and drabs I know in fifteen different languages. A little english, french, czech, dutch, creole, swahili &c. You get the picture.

Of course, at the time I can't understand why nobody can understand me.

"Nice lats, wanna fuck?". [...] "Da, esta bom, merci".

Haha! Brilliant!
