I follow this random thing on twitter (@Foreign_Words) and when I saw this word, my OCD brain immediately jumped to the scene on the couch from "To Live and Die in LA". Of course it's an ancient, unspoken language, but oh well.  smile

 

"Mamihlapinatapai"- a look shared by two people, each wishing the other will offer something that they both desire, but are unwilling to do. [Yaghan language of Tierra del Fuego]

great smile  and thanks for the twitter account link, love it!

 

(and the funny thing is that yesterday's word was "Fremdscham" and the other day I was thinking if there even existed a word for it in English because I "fremdschäm" a lot. Obviously not)

Thank you for sharing this twitter account, I loved it.

Those words are really unusual, but nice to know.

"Mamihlapinatapai"- I didn't know that the people in "Tierra del Fuego" were Caskett shippers!

I say that, because "Mamihlapinatapai" seems like the person that invented it knew this would apply to that wonderful scene!

-Oh My Gosh Castle! You were so cute back then! -Back then?   I apologize with everyone for the problems my banner caused. I didn't change it before because I hadn't logged in. Anyway, I want to thank the Admin for erasing it while I wasn't around. I'm glad it isn't causing problems anymore. Thank you for understanding.
