The French word for a werewolf is loup-garou. Etymologically, this compound is pleonastic: garou means 'werewolf' and loup means 'wolf'. It's also hybrid: loup stems from Latin lupus whereas garou was borrowed from West Germanic *werwulf. Click the image for more.

Are you excited for the Horizon: Burning Shores DLC???

Even if Kotallo doesn't get to come with us, we'll at the very least see a Horus move. That's all I wanted since the first game. :')

#update: I added some German Tourist flare to Kotallo #I'd love a Shadow of the Colossus type bossfight with one #yknow like different stages of climbing it and stabbing it or hacking while it's moving #sometimes get on the Sunwing and drop shit on it #mmm I'd love that #Horizon Forbidden West #Burning Shores #Aloy #Kotallo

“americans have no culture”

#germans watching american football #and singing an american song #about west virginia #the only reason people say america has no culture #is because our culture is so ubiquitous that it's taken for granted

an absolutely hilarious thing from reanimator that gets overlooked is in the beginning scene when dr gruber is hopped up on reagent and that doctor asks him “wie geht’s?”

like, “wie geht’s” is the most informal way to ask someone how they’re doing. asking “how’s it going” in that situation is already funny, but just the added hilarity of it being “wie geht’s,” which is even a casual shortening “wie geht es” just makes it so much better

#not even five minutes in and i was howling #non-german speakers can’t appreciate that moment #it’s so good #reanimator #reanimator 1985 #herbert west #dan cain #jeffrey combs

Lady: 'bread kneader'

Lady stems from a compound meaning 'bread kneader'. It consisted of Proto-West Germanic *hlaeb (bread), the ancestor of loaf, and *daigijā (kneader), a derivation of *daig, the ancestor of dough. In Old English, the compound had become hlǣfdiġe, meaning 'mistress of the household'. Click the video to hear how it changed in 2500 years.

DER TOD DER MARIA MALIBRAN (1972) dir. Werner Schroeter Maria Malibran, a legendary Spanish-French opera singer who died in 1836 at the age of 28, forms the starting point for a series of stylised tableaux introducing variations on different levels, including in the form of musical phrases. Fragments of stories that take place in a non-existent country, in which the characters do not have any clear identity and are mutually interchangeable, a reflection on the 19th century cult for geniuses and divas.
