Tuesday.
Went for a run, and went to the library.
Can't remember much else!
Word.......................sauss = dry and sasalis = frozen (they sound sooo similar when mom says them!)
Dish.........................ābolu ķiļķeni = apple dumplings! mom made them.. not bad, sort of like yet another biezputra, but I put avenu ievarijums on it and it was even tastier!
Random observation.................It's hard to learn things from people who don't dissect words the same way I do... I wanted to know what was the word for saltwater and freshwater in Latvian, and mom said, that's silly, those words don't exist, it's water from the sea and water from the river.
Nope... it's sālsūdens and saldūdens...wish I had internet at the house to answer all my questions!!!

is the translation salt water and sweet water?
ReplyDeletedont you have your latvian dictionary?
yes, that's the literal translation, although, of course, in english we call it salt water and fresh water. i do have a dictionary but it doesn't have everything in it.
