Nice! I have yet to do so. Halfway through the 15 books of the Wheel of Time book series.

I just read book 1 of The Wheel of Time. My mood hasn’t swung to read the next book yet. Is reading by audiobook better?

I’ve finally caught up on Dresden Files (on ebooks) and now acquired a physical copy of the recently released installment—a gift to myself to start Level 48.

My PE instructor in school once said, "I have two daughters. Both are girls." "Bring me a red pen of any colour."

The instructor is thinking in Tagalog and translate it to English upon speaking. When we translate it back to Tagalog:

“May dalawa akong anak. Parehong babae.”

The mistranslation occurred in “anak” to “daughter”. Tagalog does not have gendered terms for offspring. That is why the second sentence in Tagalog clarifies the gender but totally redundant in English.
