I'm always curious about the traffic that shows up from far away places. How did they find me? Who are they? And what brings them back? Are they reading in English? Do that many people know English in that many countries?
But I take a silly pleasure too in reading blogs from other places in languages I don't know. They usually have pictures. I bought a book on learning Latin about 20 years ago. I can usually figure out what they are trying to say. Well, they did say it, I can usually figure out what I am trying to understand.
Today I found one in German. It's not a Latin based language and I still figured it out!! Of course, it was speckled with English and some vegetable and plant names are the same in different languages. But it Almost made me want to make zucchini fritters. Now that's talent!

Very cool. I find it comforting that "crap, what am I going to do with all these zucchini" transcends all languages and borders.
ReplyDeleteTru dat. Sometimes I wonder what drives me to plant things I can't possibly use.
