By now you'll find me in my homeland visiting family and friends, but here I am leaving you with another couple of Untranslatables.

Come and read.

Source: from the web. The photo is not mine, just the translation and the frame. — I think this one is gorgeous, although when I saw it I thought that calling someone “my liver” didn’t sound exactly romantic. But you can do it all. ☺

Another one that gives immediate internal warmth.

And this one, I definitely love! One of those words that we should adopt immediately - especially in summer. Although on the eve of the holidays I think that "I hope that if I find something by groping it's not a jellyfish", the truth is that this term reminds me more of the act of groping with your feet when you enter a river, rather than the sea. Who knows.

Hale, now you have a word for what we've all done at some point.
You are welcome.

You can even feel it while you read it, huh?

I hope you enjoyed today's Untranslatables, that they make you dream a little and visit those countries and those feelings.

As a bonus, I'll leave you with a thought that, although it has nothing to do with untranslatables of any kind, I do find interesting - the lady is a Nobel Prize winner in Medicine, so she knows what she's talking about. In my case, I keep my brain active with these projects, for example.

Good afternoon and see you soon.

Enjoy.
