Pomme de Terre

it's just, fruits de mer, sea fruit.

French people unironically call wands "baguettes magiques".

Must be from South tyrol?

you know baguette means "stick" right, before meaning "bread shaped like a long stick" ?

>aujourd'hui
>on the day of today
What the FUCK is their problem?

Spanish people have no culture, no cuisine, no history. The only thing you've ever achieved is colonizing Latin America and making sure they become more relevant than you, while your home country collects EU handouts to sustain itself.

I don't care
To me it always means a bread

You're not fooling anybody, Adolf.

Yeah.
(and the other retards)
It's the bread that got the name from the thing, not the other way round.

In France, people often say "au jour d'aujourd'hui" which literally means "on the day of the day of today".

Further proof fr*Nch is the shittiest bastardization of Latin yet.

>>Quid est id quod id est?
was translating fr*Nch, should be just
>Quid est?

we used to count in base 20, it made perfect sense back then, today it's just the name of the number but nobody think about it being 4 times 20 then 10 and then 9.

Yes, it’s proper name is Erdapfel uezs

I call them "tatties".

It's سیب زمینی (sib zamini) in farsi, which translates to apple of earth as well.

same in dutch: aardappelen, earth apples

To faint in French is "Tomber dans les pommes", literally to fall on the apples

we call it patates
there's another root vegetable that we call earth apple (yer elması)

>baguette de pain, literally stick of bread
>muuuuh they call a magic stick the name of a bread lol

we call it Barra de Pan
so technically we should be calling french bread "barras"

not sure you would, baguette de pain were so popular in france and consumed daily the given name is shortened, i'm sure you have examples like that in spain as well.

This thread made me realize how goofy french actually sounds

In faeroe island they call it "eple" and regular apple sureple

kartoffel is carrot no?

It's the "correct" word for earth apple used everywhere north of Bayern.

>use septante in france
>get arrested by the language police

I always thought pomme de terre was an excellent name for a potato t b h.

The english translation sounds like the start of a limerick

This is one of my favorite things about learning languages in general.

This confused me while learning French as a kid. Honestly thought they were retards. Pomme de terre is just cute

What the fuck is up with them and apples?

>posts from Süd Tirol
>Italian flag

it's a vasconic substrate (see basque)

to be hangover is "avoir la gueule de bois", "to have a wooden mouth"

what's the breakdown of "aardvark"

Nice.

a lot of our expressions are related to food, that's just 2 : tête de chou, aller aux fraises, faire son beurre, tremper son biscuit, être une bonne patte etc there's no end

Many proverbs are about apples in Italian too. Its simply the most common fruit I think

do you have a big Pomme d'Adam ?

Joël Rebouchon mashed potatoes

oui...

I confirm, y'all going to take my baguette magique

why did you start with the worst of them also why did you pick 4/5 of them from the last two centuries

no particular reason, just named them off the top of my head

it doesn't sound particularly goofy you could make a thread like this for every single language

And we should. Words and grammar are fun.
