Awkward translations

I’ve mentioned in previous posts some of the interesting translations of food items on menus. Here are some others I’ve found on real estate sites, AirBnb, or other random sites. This may be an ongoing theme…

• Homely semi-detached house…

• …the house is floor and floor. Good chance…
  
• … the largest contains a large dressing room and the traditional volt ceilings…

• The houses are completely restored. Consist of 12 bedrooms, 13 bathrooms, dining rooms with chimney, kitchen office completely equipped, terraces, porche (nice touch!)

• Otherwise, our market is open 24/7 with a large selection of products such as fresh jar food…

• Basically, you can usually tell from the taste whether the water quality invites you to drink. If it tastes strongly of chlorine or salty, you automatically lose interest in tap water.

• Used Wagon cars Barcelona Spain
  
• (re home recycling pick-up) Every day from 8 pm to 10 pm, according to the pre-established calendar, you can leave the fraction that touches the rubbish bins in front of your portaI
  
• If we to throw our heart over the obstacle, we could see this dream realised by the end of 2024.

And just on tonight’s menu:

Old beef entrecôte
Calf fillet
Meat tartar

Another menu item: Cod with mashed topinamburs (wha?)

I’ve learned that our exclamations in English are not the same in other languages. For example, “youpi” is French for “yay”; “guau” is Spanish for “wow”; and “buff” is Spanish for “ugh,” I think.

I came up with a couple more “pro’s” for living in Spain:

• No roaches in the shower, the toilet, the sink, flying around, or ANYwhere (at least in the north)!
  
• The safety factor. I’m not afraid of personal violence here. If anyone would ever try to rob me, I am certain I could be threatened with force, but not with a gun. That’s a huge relief.

And just so you know you’re in good company, I now have over 122 followers from 29 countries! Kinda fun.
