It's these little differences that make foreign language study so rewarding

Holy crap: I just discovered that in Czech, the same word* means both "classical" (as in music) and "serious" (as in serious relationship). Man, I'm glad none of our tutors at TAC were aware of that little factoid...it would have injected an extra element of judgy-ness into their condemnation of everything unMozart.


Huh. So I guess by that rationale, all of my relationships have been rock-and-roll to the bone. Verging on experimental noise-rock, in a few cases. Well, fuck it. Punk rock, represent!




*The word is vážný, in case you're interested, which, ok, probably not.
