Why do people seem to think that “aye” is said like “eh”? I see it a lot… (okay, a lot of the time it’s people asking if Canadian’s really do say, “aye” but we don’t, because we’re not pirates, we say “eh”).
But yes. I mean I could be totally mistaken here… but I’ve always thought that “aye” is like pirate-speak.
“AYE MATEY”.
“Aye” as in, eye. Or pretty close to that. And “eh” as in, brought to you by the letter A.
So the weekend is over, again. I feel like every week, I look forward to the weekend, and then it comes and goes so quickly, like it was never there to begin with.
Having class on Saturday mornings is nice though; I’m almost always home just after noon and I have the rest of the day. This past Saturday, six students came. Thankfully. It was bitterly cold, so I thought that there wouldn’t be such a turn out, but there was.
Granted, it was two groups of three travel-wise.
But it was nice. We started to learn colours.
It’s really annoying how the spell check on this computer (it’s like the automatic kind that underlines the words in red if you misspell them as you type) keeps telling me that ‘colours’ and so forth is wrong.
Oh but that reminds me, I did learn something interesting the other day. That ‘deke’ is a Canadian English word. It underlines that too.
I was actually reading a list of all these words that were used in Canadian English, because I think it’s fascinating. I mean, I think the differences between all the variations of English in general is fascinating.
Sunday, Kat and I hung out. We watched the new episode of Kyle XY (SO GOOD. And this week’s looks awesome and awkward). We also rented two movies. The Duchess and Forgetting Sarah Marshall. Both were good, but obviously VERY different, haha. The Duchess left you feeling kind of depressed, well, it left me feeling kind of depressed because I always want to see those wonderful fairy tale endings that aren’t generally present in reality.
I feel like when I started writing this I had a point. Unfortunately, that’s been lost.
Video blog number three in which there’s a rant on how much I regretted taking Latin (despite the awesome professor), talking about the weather in Canada and questioning the reason why people do things on YouTube.
