Kafea is coffee shop in Davvisámegiella or North Sámi. I chose it because that is the best place to hang out with cool people, or linger over studies.

baun - bean (Icelandic) According to a dictionary it's allowed to say 'ekki baun!' for 'not at all', as in 'not a bean, old chap!'. If that's not a reason to question solely dictionary use I don't know what is. सेम (sem) - bean (Hindi) My nickname is my name, and I think Paul means modest in Latin. I hope Lambeth derives from lamb. Paul in Icelandic is Páll (formally - pronounced p-ow-tl) or Palli (informally, pronounced as written).

I am registered as 'ember' in a few other communities and forums, and in Russian-
speaking ones, they often try to call me 'янтарь' ('Amber' in Russian), which is a completely different word. So I have to explain, which is not easy since Russian does not have a single word for 'ember'.
I have 4 or 5 only in my (well, my husband's) family! In Cyprus, it is THE most common name! )))) 1 person has voted this message useful | ||||||

Iwwersetzerin means translator (in the female form, the male form is Iwwersetzer) in my native language Luxembourgish. Guess what I do for a living ;-)

My nickname is the Bengali way of pronouncing my first name, Harshad.
In Sanskrit "Harsha" = Happiness and "Da" = Giver. (Although North Indians generally drop the final "a" from Sanskrit words. So Harshada becomes Harshad. And all Sanskrit 'a's are pronounced as 'o's in Bengali. Hence, Horshod.) 1 person has voted this message useful |
