Che catso dici?[^] (PDF)

Replace the "ts" (which is how it's pronounced) with "zz" (which is how it's spelled), before running it through a translator.

I saw the emoji before I read the text, and thought "I'm sure that's rude in Italian"... Big Grin | :-D

That's exactly what I thought but without the Italian part. "It's rude to someone, just not sure who."

We had a silly childhood game.... if you made that gesture (had to be below mid level) and could get someone to look you could punch them on the shoulder. Now it's just a 'I tricked you into looking' kinda thing for those who used it that way.

If a picture is worth a thousand words, but one emoji needs a 14-page PDF to explain it...the point's been missed.

I stick with words. It's one of the first things I was taught.

Never seen anybody with a smile using that gesture. Usually it's in the context of "What the **** do you want!!".

Then they flick their chin.

WTF do you want from me? (CC vuoi?)/WTF are you saying? (CC dici/stai a dire?). Same cart, different apples -- which is pretty much how language works.

That's "Non me ne frega un catso".

You'll notice that I'm only teaching the most important and functional parts of the language. All training courses should be this way.

(Same thing with the "ts" and "zz".)

There's an app for that

It must have had a great UX designer[^].

I love the way they're blaming users, and not the makers of the app.

How hard can it be to make an intuitive app that people can tap a few details into and press send?

Very hard, it would seem.

BTW, are you getting better, or doing this from your sick-bed?

Slowly getting better, but it takes Ebola or Bubonic Plague to get me into a sick bed. I'm not the type to just lie there feeling ill and doing nowt, it drives me up the wall. Laugh | :laugh:
