The city took its name from the hill. Mandalay Hill is known for its abundance of pagodas and monasteries, and has been a major pilgrimage site for Burmese Buddhists for nearly two centuries. At the top of the hill is the Sutaungpyei iterally wish-fulfilling Pagoda. A panoramic view of Mandalay from the top of Mandalay Hill alone makes it worthwhile to attempt a climb up its stairways. To get a sense of Mandalay’s pancake-flat sprawl, climb the 240 metres hill that breaks it. The barefooted walk up covered stairways on the hill's southern slope is a major part of the experience passing through and around a colourful succession of prayer and shopping opportunities. The climb takes a good 30 minutes, but much longer if you allow for stops en route. The summit viewpoint is especially popular at sunset when young monks converge on foreigners for language practice.

 

Just outside the North of downtown, Mandalay Hill which summit is 240 m above the surrounding plain is the natural watch-tower for the visitors to watch sunrise or sunset over the city plains. Every one who arrived in Mandalay, the ancient capital of Myanmar, usually goes to Mandalay Hill, the landmark of Mandalay, which overlooks the city.

 

Mandalay is de op een na grootste stad van Myanmar en ligt aan de voet van de 240 m hoge Mandalay Heuvel. In vroegere tijden was Mandalay echter niet de hoofdstad van deze streek. De legende vertelt dat de Boeddha zelf een voorspelling heeft gedaan dat onderaan de Mandalay Heuvel een machtige stad gesticht zou worden. Echter pas in 1858 besloot koning Mingdon om gehoor te geven aan deze legende en ontmantelde hij de toenmalige hoofdstad Amarapura en verhuisde alles naar Mandalay. Vandaag de dag is Mandalay weer opgebouwd tot een machtige stad die de verbinding vormt tussen alle handel tussen Noord- en Centraal-Myanmar. Ook is Mandalay een religieus centrum, waar u duizenden pagoda’s, tempels en kloosters kunt bewonderen. De allerbelangrijkst is echter de Maha Muni Pagode, waar een kolossaal boeddhabeeld bedekt met een dikke laag bladgoud te bezichtigen is. Daarnaast is een beklimming van de Mandalay Hill, vlak voor zonsondergang een unieke ervaring. Via een trap van meer dan 1700 treden is deze beklimming een ware uitdaging, maar de beloning is groot. Vanaf dit hoge punt heeft u een uitmuntend uitzicht heeft over het landschap, waartussen de Irrawaddy rivier zich een weg kronkelt.

For 122 Pictures in 2022 #58 "Language of Flowers". I wasn't sure what language they speak (Petalan? Pollenesian?), so I just took one of a vase full of them just standing there quietly.

October = LISTOPAD in the Croatian language means 'the month of falling leaves'

[LIST: 'leaf' + PAD: 'fall' = LISTOPAD: 'leaf-fall'].

 

The month of October was also called LISTOPAD in the old Macedonian (Листопад)

as well as old Bulgarian (Листопад). The month's name LISTOPAD exists or existed

in several other Slavic languages: Polish (Listopad), Czech (Listopad), old Slovenian (Listopad), Ukrainian (Листопад), and Byelarusian (Листопад). However in the latter

five languages the term LISTOPAD refers to the month of November. This is probably

due to differences in climate.

 

On the other hand, October is called "VINOTOK" [VINO: 'wine' + TOK: 'flow' = "the wine flowing month"] in the archaic Slovenian language, "ZHOVTEN" [ZHOVTIY: 'yellow' color = month when leaves turn yellow] in Ukrainian (Жовтень), and "KASTRYCHNIK" [KOSTER: 'bonfire' = month when leaves turn colour of fire] in Byelarusian (Кастрычнiк). These two languages call October the "mud month" - Finnish (Lokakuu) and Carelian (Ligakuu).

I ended the night with a final evening boat trip to this amazing lighthouse called the Maiden's Tower (Kiz Kulesi) — one of the most iconic (even if diminutive) spots between the European and Asian continents of Turkey. It's so nice just to goggle at in the evening. In fact, there are a bunch of restaurants right on the seafront, each one covered in lavish rugs and plush pillows. Locals and travellers alike relax and recline on the pillows like sultans while having amazing snacks and drinks... every five minutes or so everyone picks up their phones to take another photo of the lighthouse. You know, the whole language and everything from Turkey reminds me of the Dothraki, especially in the silky way it's spoken by Daenerys, the Khaleesi mother of dragons...

Mac knows all the language. Here you can see up right the menu for the language: on my Mac i've setted the italian as the main laguage and all the software is in italian (and in this way i can write in roman letters), but i've setted japanese kanas and kanji too, so i can easily use them and change from italian to kanji just with a simple keyboard combination (⌥+⌘+space). Now i've done an experiment: if i set japanese as the main language, all is related to japanese and all the software so too (pay attention to the upper bar). Here you can see i can choose so many other input system: from the knowest to the most subtle ones.

Digging out old reflections... or maybe not so much as scooping or pouring them out as Chris and Gavin suggested. Thanks, my friends, for teaching me the subtleties of the English language :)))

Who can identify the language that these newspapers are printed in? The paper across the lad's arm has the word Hitler as part of the headline. Any translation of the visible print?

This guy came up to us and was really trying his best to tell us something and pointing across the street. But, unfortunately, none of us could speak Chinese, so we just kinda nodded and and looked that way and he eventually moved on...

originally founded in the 1930s as the "soda springs health resort" by quack doctor and radio evangelist curtis springer. he named the settlement "zzyzx" claiming it was the last word in the dictionary, and thus, the last word in good health. zzyzx now serves as a desert research station for the cal state university system.

I came across some photos from today's date four years ago. It helps getting into the Christmas spirit when we are lucky to experience snow! (Which is not that usual in our part of the country.) I hope we'll do so soon..

This title is the title of this beautiful Danish folk song:

 

There is nought on earth so still as the snow

 

There is nought on earth so still as the snow!

Shrouding all the world in silent glamour;

Muffling ev'ry sound on the frozen ground,

Hushing ev'ry footfall's noisy clamour.

 

There is nought on earth as pure as the snow!

Swan's down loosed from winter's pinions spreading,

On the hand a flake doth a teardrop make.

Through the crystal air white thoughts are threading.

 

Nought so lulling on the earth as the snow!

Sinking light as slumber on the weary

Till the silence so into sound doth grow

Fine as silver bells, a music faerie.

 

(Helge Rode 1896. English translation: Robert A. Sickert)

 

In Danish, the original language:

 

Der er ingenting i verden så stille som sne

 

Der er ingenting i verden så stille som sne,

når den sagte gjennem luften daler,

dæmper dine skridt, tysser, tysser blidt

på de stemmer, som for højlydt taler

 

Der er ingenting i verden af en renhed som sne,

svanedun fra himlens hvide vinger

På din hånd et fnug er som tåredug

Hvide tanker tyst i dans sig svinger

 

Der er ingenting i verden, der kan mildne som sne

Tys, du lytter, til det tavse klinger.

O, så fin en klang, sølverklokkesang

inderst inde i dit hjerte ringer

"You've got a way with words

Maybe it's charming

Text during the party

Sure that could suffice

You know just what to say

Write letters for me

But it's kinda boring

When I can't see your face

 

You call to flatter me all night, all night

But I don’t know if you can speak my, speak my

 

Body language (Do ya)

Get impatient (Would ya)

Hate it if I wanna keep a little of this tension

I'm not saying (That I)

Want you baby (But ya)

Make me question all other forms of communication

Pause the adrenaline

Thinking you know me

Baby, that's so sweet

Where do I begin?

Don't wanna throw you off

But I can't just play along

So tell me if I should pick up when

 

You call to flatter me all night, all night

But I don’t know if you can speak my, speak my

What's loudest is what isn't said

The joke's on me, let's not pretend

I want to want you more than friends

But baby, can you comprehend my

Visting Dordrecht I saw on the banks of the Spui delightful small Shepherd's Purse, Capsella bursa-pastoris. Here and there - as ought to be in Spring - couples of Thick-thighed Singing Hoverflies, Syritta pipiens, being fruitful, one hopes.

In contemplation of this wonder of Nature, I immediately, of course, given this town, linked to another fruitful, major event here. In the Grote Kerk - see inset - in 1618 a Church Synod of international protestantism was convened. The theological issues caused great division in The Netherlands, but that's not my topic. Far more importantly, that Synod also commissoned a standard translation of the Bible into Dutch, the so-called Statenvertaling, comparable to the King James Version in English (1611). It wasn't until 1626 that the States-General agreed to the Synod's request and though the translation (from Hebrew and Greek) was ready in 1635 it took the government until 1637 to agree to (and to underwrite) its printing. Once printed that Statenvertaling not only served to standardise the Dutch language - almost everyone at some point used it or at least understood its phrasing - but much of its language provided catch-phrases still used today (often without the speaker realising it). Thus it became highly fruitful for Dutch literature, poetry, prose and any other kind alike.

And the name of our plant, Shepherd's Purse, brings to mind as well how the language of that Statenvertaling, stimulated and expounded by the protestant Shepherds of the Word, became known as the "Tale Kanaäns", the language of faith, often recognisable even if the speakers don't know it themselves.

But our Hoverflies merely sing without words! and are fruitfully multiplying.

I'm honoured to have been selected for the 3rd edition of the photo residency of The "Alliance Française de Toronto" (a first for me!).

I'm currently wandering around the city trying to capture the visible expressions of Toronto's cultural richness and diversity. Did you know that torontonians speak more than 140 languages ?

 

This will culminate in an exhibition at the Pierre Léon Gallery of the French Alliance.

 

Are you in Toronto? Good, come and see it! The exhibition opens on 4 May, it's free and it runs for a month!

Compositionally Challenged, Week 30: Dutch Angle

Mānana (aka Rabbit Island)

 

"In the Hawaiian language, mānana means "buoyant".[1] The islet is commonly referred to as Rabbit Island, because its shape as seen from the nearby Oʻahu shore looks something like a rabbit's head and because it was once inhabited by introduced rabbits. The rabbit colony was established by John Adams Cummins in the 1880s when he ran the nearby Waimānalo plantation.[2] The rabbits were eradicated about a hundred years later because they were destroying the native ecosystem, an important seabird breeding area.

 

Mānana is a tuff cone with two vents or craters. The highest point on the islet rises to 361 ft (110 m). The island is 2,319 ft (707 m) long and 2,147 ft (654 m) wide and has an area of about 63 acres (25 ha). Mānana's only sand beach is a small storm beach on the west to south-west (leeward) side of the islet. This sand deposit, located above the reach of the normal waves, is about 30 ft (9.1 m) wide and curves around to the western side of the island.

 

Manana was formed by the Honolulu Volcanic Series. These series of eruptions are responsible for creating other tuff cones such as Punchbowl Crater.

 

Mānana is a State Seabird Sanctuary—home to over 10,000 wedge-tailed shearwaters, 80,000 sooty terns, 20,000 brown noddys, 5–10 Bulwer's petrels, and 10–15 red-tailed tropicbirds, and numerous Hawaiian monk seals. It is illegal to land on the islet without permission from the Hawaiʻi Department of Land and Natural Resources.[3]"
