Wipe the glass. This is the usual way to start, even in the days, day and night, only a happy one.

Pas vraiment. That's a euphemism for menstruation, and it's a reference to the British occupation of France after the Battle of Waterloo.lsd wrote: ↑02 Jul 2021 18:31 c'est plutôt : les anglais débarquent

[ɹa˥wu˩ pi˩ɹi˥ti˩ ka˩ mo˩sau˥˩ wai˩]
đáwu Piđíti ka mo´-sa-u wa-i
people British COP.SENS NMLZ-move-LOC this_direction-DAT
'The British are coming!'
It is very possible to say:
Đáwu Piđíti sáá wai!
'The British come!'
The progressive construction is not as common as in English.

Re: The British are coming!
Portuguese
Os britânicos estão vindo!
o-s britânic-o-s estão vindo
DEF.MASC-PL british.person-MASC-PL LOC.COP.3pl come.PROG
"The British are coming!"
New word (learned) for this challenge: britânico/a "British person"
Erokinsi (Proto-Ökiset)
Ganiroi Beritentsah gapigah!
gani-roi beriten-tsah ga-pigah
person-PL.ACC Britain-GEN IMM.FUT-approach
"Folk of Britain are about to approach!"
I've used the immediate future here, since pigah- refers more to "come close" or "draw near," which I assume the British hadn't quite done yet.
New words for this challenge: gani "person," Beriten "Britain"
Translation challenge: 18%, and I'm definitely not going to finish anytime soon...
