That's not really saying much, because I didn't do much for the last several languages and it's going to be hard to review everything (like it always is), but hey, at least I tried to do something. And then I can try to look for a new job, too!

Onam is coming up in two days, so I think I'll post an Onam song in the Malayalam songs thread I started for Onam, too. :P

Qu'est-ce que c'est Onam?

The annual Malayalee harvest festival and Kerala's biggest holiday. Technically, it's a ten-day festival, so if I'm not mistaken, today is the ninth day, but it's the last day that's the biggest part of the holiday:

And the next day is my birthday. :D

Respect your elders! Address me with 様/さま!

In all seriousness though, I was just lazy and just stole the phrase off the internet without any changes. lmao

I thought it was still possible for a koohai to adress the senpai as though they were friends. That is the usual relationship that evolves as a result after all.

Never, I will adress you with 君/くん :twisted:

Thou anger'st me :x One must always conjugate according to the occasion.

IIRC お前 is actually a pretty informal way to address someone, and お前は! is (kind of?) an insult. :P

Sorry. I didn't know you knew 汝 (how would I have known?) or that you were taking it literally on purpose.

Nice palindrome pun on the TAC of someone who speaks a language whose name is also a palindrome, though :lol:
