I bet I don't stick to this.
Word of the week in English:
peculation=embezzlement "The peculations of small Italian businessmen lack charm" (A. Lurie)
Word of the week in French:
occire (pronounced ox-ear)=to slay (says it's either obsolete or humorous - I can identify with that): "Mais pourquoi qu' t' as occis le mataf?' (Genet - yes, that one) - "Why did you slay the sailor-guy?'
Mike,
ReplyDeleteWas not sot sure of how else to contact you. I have changed computers and I have just realised I have no idea of the web address for the forum - I usually just clicked on my favourites.
Is there any chance you could give me it?

Raven is a great writer but he doesn't like to crow about it.
I've read Raven's recent comment - no probs but some of the people reading this are young in age, if old in wisdom so I've not published it openly. Raven though is a good guy and I hope he will go over to firm but fair (as opposed to loose and biased) asap.
ReplyDeleteTweet! I'm on that too now!
