200805A - Stiri de tot soiu'  

Thrown (Ţâpat) in , ,

Poti traduce ce citesti pe blogul meu in 20 de limbi apasand pe steagul respectiv. Poze superbe, cum sa-nnebunesti nebunii, Orwell redivivus, si europenii se imbata sa si-o traga... pun pariu ca nu stiai asta! :)

Vasile Caniuca: din container IT in porsche CN  

Thrown (Ţâpat) in , , ,

Stirile despre Romania din presa straina abunda, cand ochiul antrenat le cauta. Sa discutam povestea unui roman ajuns in Canada intr-un container din Italia.

folosirea virgulei si simtul limbii  

Thrown (Ţâpat) in , , , ,

Am avut recent o scurta discutie cu Elhunes pe twitter. Este despre gramatica, o arta greu de stapanit pentru romanul emigrant, in special pentru cel care se adapteaza tarii adoptive.

celebrating chaos’n catastrophe

I recently wrote a poem for a poem for a friend who was seemingly fading away in the background. She had posted this self-accusatory and spelling-challenged photo and then went on and on commenting some stupid blog.

Franglais, sau rudele Ghidoo

Cu totii cunoastem exemplele romglezei, exemplificate fie de snobii care trantesc cuvinte romglezite din dorinta de a pare cosmopoliti, chit ca-si amintesc foarte bine corespondentul romanesc get-beget, fie de cei care si-au pierdut o parte din vocabularul romanesc pe drumul catra meleaguri streine.

Top 10 Cantece Vizualizate pentru studiul limbii engleze  

Thrown (Ţâpat) in ,

Citeam recent pe blogul Michael Nork ca ii este dificil sa invete elevii romani limba engleza. Mi-am amintit de propriul meu drum in invatarea limbii engleze si m-am gandit sa-l ajut cu cateva pie charts si Venn / Euler diagrams facute, probabil, de un alt american Big Grin.

Olivia Steer or Olive Stere? Is anti-vaxx vax?  

Thrown (Ţâpat) in , , , ,

So many scandals in Romania, so little time. It's hard to decide what to write about. I can't read Romanian news - everything is clickbait and when I try reading something, I invariably find grammar, spelling or logic (or all of the above) mistakes. I choose to write about a "scandal" that happened toward the end of March, because none of the opinions I've read explain what's going on to my level of perception.

Numeste logo-ul Web 2.0  

Thrown (Ţâpat) in , ,

Daca te intereseaza online-ul poate ai remarcat ca mai toate marile nume au logo-uri traznite dar asemanatoare, evidentiindu-se prin spelling creativ. Daca ai votat in Premiile Open Web s-ar putea sa stii mai multe. Incearca un test care te pune sa numesti compania dupa logo!

Romanians for Toronto Mayor  

Thrown (Ţâpat) in , ,

There were seemingly two Romanians running for Toronto Mayor: Radu Popescu and Michael Nicula. Radu Popescu has not listed anything other than his name, while Michael Nicula has listed a lot of info, but nowhere is it mentioned that he is (or was) Romanian.

Romanian MEP elections in Toronto

You may have heard that in Europe, on May 25, people vote for euroskeptics to represent them in Brussels and simultaneously destroy whatever's left of the European dream. You can help destroy Europe here in Toronto as well.

Blegoo strikes (debates?) again  

Thrown (Ţâpat) in , , , ,

Blegoo, previously profiled and published here, took some time off from shovelling to write an article for this blog, as a guest. I’m publishing it here as encouragement (longer version), with the spelling mistakes left uncorrected but listed at the end, and also detailing there the formatting work I (still) had to do.

Romanian origins III–land of confusion

We finally get to present and hopefully elucidate our argument.

La Multi Ani, Happy New Year, Resolutions  

Thrown (Ţâpat) in , , ,

As I’ve done in the past, I am publishing here my resolutions, mostly for this blog and wish all my readers La Multi Ani, Feliz Navidad (better late than never, right?) and A Happy New Year!

mestecau (chewing gum) as currency  

Thrown (Ţâpat) in , , , , ,

Ever since I have decided to focus on English language blogs, I find every now and then news about Romania that beg to be commented. I never have enough time to do so, but today, as I read about the chewing gum thieves, I shall make an exception.

communostalgia canalia  

Thrown (Ţâpat) in , ,

I’ve just read a piece of news that angered me a great deal as it smelled fake, but as I looked into it, I did not find the clear rebuttal I expected. It’s based on an obscure survey question that had not been reported in the media and now is fodder for fake news sites. The title is based on an 80s Italian song which roughly means “rogue nostalgia”, combined with the Romanian spelling of the word that stands for “rogue”, which, in the latter language stands for an insult, meaning “scoundrel, villain, miscreant”. 

I am Z and I am a flirt-oholic  

Thrown (Ţâpat) in ,

We've met in a crowded room and her smile (or was it her ROTFL?) temporarily blinded me. I don't know why I find her so ubercool - maybe it's cuz I met her in the middle of winter and she’s such an all-around solar experience.

zamo zamolxis zalmoxis  

Thrown (Ţâpat) in ,

I am repeatedly getting inquiries from people who are upset that this blog isn't solely about Zamolxis, as its name might suggest to them. This shouldn't be difficult.
