I love languages. Even just the little random pieces of them. Like how to say 'please'. In French, it's s'il vous plait, which I think translates more formally to "if it pleases you", which is awesome, and I assume something similiar to the origins of the English 'please'. But in Irish, it's Mais e do thol e, which translates fully to "if it is your will", which ... tickles the part of me that just really loves a nice formal turn of phrase. *grins* Not that English doesn't have a few nice formal phrases of its own, you understand. I just love how, with other languages, what gets translated to a nice flat English 'please' is something much prettier in reality. Heh.
