9:28 am

mkg

Any clues for the P 7s? I an not seeing them at all.

9:28 am

MollyL

It isn't an abbreviation it's a quality of a feather

9:29 am

dcseain

my first p7 is a plural

9:29 am

dcseain

thanks, Molly :) I knew it had to have an other meaning.

9:29 am

hokie carla

he just gave one

9:29 am

hokie carla

oh, was that not p7 but p something else and that's why I can't find it?

9:29 am

dcseain

the PA thing is a 5

9:31 am

hokie carla

oh, I just found a pe6/7 bird, mkg. I suspect that is seain's plural.

9:32 am

dcseain

no, mine's a po6/7

9:32 am

mkg

I am looking. Ty. So far no lightbulbs going off.

9:32 am

MollyL

Your first can't be a po

9:32 am

hokie carla

9:32 am

dcseain

it's the first one I found

9:32 am

mkg

9:39 am

dcseain

well, the males have the tail. but yeah.

9:39 am

hokie carla

I said that!

9:39 am

MollyL

The po6/7 are not exactly well known words

9:39 am

dcseain

oh, so you did, my bad :)

9:39 am

hokie carla

I thought I was implying this was the female but I guess not.

9:40 am

hokie carla

the po6/7 look like a mis or alt sp of a float boat

9:40 am

dcseain

you absolutely did imply that. total reading compression failure on my part.

9:41 am

hokie carla

1:27 pm

dcseain

I'm having trouble with st6

1:28 pm

hokie carla

I still need 2 from that S so will look.

1:29 pm

hokie carla

1:29 pm

MollyL

st6 sounds like where you get your hair done with a different vowel

1:29 pm

hokie carla

got it, thanks

1:30 pm

dcseain

oh ,fishy. thanks, Molly

1:30 pm

hokie carla

finally found my last 2 a's

1:35 pm

hokie carla

I saw a kid working at our golf club with a name tag with ta5 - bird claw. I thought that was an interesting choice by his parents. maybe they are eagles fans or something.

1:38 pm

hokie carla

\

1:38 pm

MollyL

Ta5 is a French name that has gotten "trendy" recently. I have no clue why.

1:39 pm

MollyL

I bet those same people would not name their son Claw.

1:40 pm

hokie carla

I guess that makes me feel better

1:41 pm

MollyL

However, being years away from people who are the age of "naming children", I am out of touch with what is popular.

1:44 pm

MollyL

I just looked at the 2024 list of popular baby names. Many traditional names (Emma, Charlotte, Noah) are back in fashion. Talon wasn't on the list. 😊

1:55 pm

hokie carla

this kid was less than 5 years younger than my youngest and I don't recall every hearing of that as a name back then.

watching Evil. I think Molly was asking the other day if anyone here watches. anyhoo, they just used afreet/afrit.

3:23 pm

dcseain

nice

3:24 pm

dcseain

afeared is a standard part of my vocab

3:28 pm

hokie carla

yeah, I've heard that a time or two in the mountains. LOL

3:31 pm

Gillie

Well, afreet/afrit is a demon, apparently, but its Arabian, so I'm not sure how it fits in Evil (which is based on Catholicism, I think?)

3:35 pm

Gillie

I looked up Evil online a while ago, but maybe I'm not remembering right

3:38 pm

hokie carla

no, you are right. this episode is about a foster kid who's seeing one and she lives in a catholic/muslim house.

3:39 pm

hokie carla

the main characters work for the catholic church and were called to investigate by the foster dad

3:39 pm

dcseain

oh, neat

3:41 pm

Gillie

ok - interesting

3:42 pm

hokie carla

oh, this guy just said shaitan. I'm seeing all kinds of words I only know from babble in use.

3:52 pm

dcseain

الشيطان is al shiTan, with emphatic T that modifies the alef to an aw.

3:52 pm

dcseain

in standard modern arabic, dialects vary.

3:55 pm

hokie carla

well, in babble grids it's shaitan ;P

4:07 pm

MollyL

Evil is a great show. I love it.

4:07 pm

hokie carla

I'm just in S2

4:08 pm

MollyL

As far as demons go, evil is about all kinds of demons. And there is no such thing as a "Catholic demon"

4:15 pm

hokie carla

well the priest and the sheikh were arguing over who got to do the exorcism

4:24 pm

SamanthaJoy

Probably the priest and the imam :)

4:27 pm

moolingwa

4:28 pm

SamanthaJoy

Hiya moo

4:29 pm

moolingwa

hey there, happy Tuesday (I think)

4:30 pm

SamanthaJoy

I ate red beans and rice yesterday, so it must be tuesday

4:30 pm

moolingwa

good reference point

4:31 pm

SamanthaJoy

<3

4:32 pm

hokie carla

well, the show called him the sheikh

4:33 pm

moolingwa

was he chocolate, strawberry or vanilla?

4:33 pm

hokie carla

now I want a shake

4:33 pm

SamanthaJoy

Interesting! But possible; a sheikh can be the spiritual leader of a group, but an imam runs a mosque.

4:35 pm

hokie carla

they also said something in an earlier episode about Nov being great weather on Everest, where the main character's husband was guiding climbs, when even I know that is like Apr. so maybe the writers don't do great research.

4:35 pm

moolingwa

I don't know what makes good weather for climbing! Why would it be spring/fall and not summer, does anyone know?

4:37 pm

hokie carla

hmm, a quick google tells me the fall season is less crowded than the spring so maybe they do do it

4:38 pm

moolingwa

Well perhaps in Summer the Himalayas get more snow because of the Monsoons?

4:38 pm

hokie carla

fall season being sept-nov

4:38 pm

SamanthaJoy

Google is telling me March/April/May and then Sep/Oct

4:42 pm
