Sunday

And other observations I made this weekend.

Did you know that there was originally no word "pea"? The English word "pea" was taken from the French (or Old French, or something) "pease". That's singular, one pea. (And hee, I know someone with that name, as, I'm sure many of you also do.) Anyway, since the sound "s" denotes a plural in this, our English language, speakers of Old English determined that "pease" must be plural, and that in the singular, you would have one "pea".

Peeeeeeeea.

Dictionary.com says that the word of the day is recidivism, which means: "A tendency to lapse into a previous condition or pattern of behavior; especially, a falling back or relapse into prior criminal habits." Hee. That's a funny word.

Yesterday, I saw Kill Bill   and Lost In Translation . In that order. It was kind of like a theme day. Only not really.

My shirt smells very nice. I'm going to have to wash it, eventually, though. Sadder yet, even sooner than that, I'm going to need to take it off and put on a different shirt.

I now need to compose a structure for the definite determiner in Romanian. This is not as fun and action-packed as it sounds.
