<Carol> Ha ha! niveus quisquiliae ... funny once I found a Latin dictionary! So, educational too.

<guyPaulo> Uhhhhh....would someone clue the rest of us in? | |
<Lauren> niveus = white quisquiliae = rubbish or trash | |
<guyPaulo> "SQUEAL LIKE A PIG BOY! SUEY! | |
<Carol> I had thought you might want to sleuth out the answer yourself, but apparently that's just me!? In Spanish nieve=snow so it took me a while to get past "snowy rubbish." | |
<Lauren> Carol, I had heard this expression before but did go to a Latin-English translator just to make sure. I suppose I should have let guy figure it out, but I don't like to see him get frustrated. | |
<Mort> Frustrated... interesting choice of word. | |
<Carol> Hee hee! Troublemaker. | |
<Carol> Lauren, of course it's good that you gave the answer when asked! I didn't know beforehand which way would be less annoying.
| |
<guyPaulo> I probably would have never figured it out, and as Lauren states, would have indeed become incredibly frustrated. | |
