| | <u>'''Current project'''</u>: a language with the working name '''Yanga''' /jaŋa/, the grammar is coming along quite nicely and I have about 500 words. I also have a couple translations, just follow the link below: |

| Currently my favourite foreign word is "''tuku''" which is [[wikipedia:Quechua languages|Quechua]] for "owl".
| |
| | |
| The French phrase "''[http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poudre_de_perlimpinpin poudre de perlimpinpin]''" comes a close second, this idiom translates as "[[wikipedia:Snake oil|snake oil]]", i.e. an unproven and questionable remedy.
| |
| | |
| I'm also fond of the Russian word "''почемука''". The word is the diminutive form of "''почему''" ("why") and is used to mean someone who asks an excessive amount of questions.
| |
| | |
| The German word "''Handschuhschneeballwerfer''", I believe literally means "one who wears gloves to throw snowballs" ("hand-shoe(glove)-snow-ball-thrower"), is used to mean "coward" and is quite cool too.
| |
| | |
| My favourite English word is "[http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/verisimilitude#English verisimilitude]".

| ==My username==
| |
| My user name is a translation of a shortened version of a quotation from [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cicero Cicero's] ''De Officiis''.

| | |
| Latin: <span style="font-variant: small-caps;">''non nobis solvm''</span> [noːn noːbiːs solʊ̃]
| |
| | |
| English: ''not for ourselves alone'' [ˈnɒt ˈfɔː aʊ̯əˈsɛlvz əˈləʊ̯n]

| Kihā́mmic: ''pá mamūnám ontā́ bán'' [ˈpa mamuːˈnam ɒnˈtɑː ˈban]
