NUFF SAID 3


Generated with MS DESIGNER


I have been quiet, I know; it's probably a good thing for everyone. As the old Chinese proverb goes :

"The Mouth is the door to disaster; the tongue is the blade that cuts your own body; if one closes his mouth and hides his tongue, wherever he goes he will be at peace."

Or, how my father used to tell me often:

"En boca cerrada no entran moscas " 

Then again, tampoco comida!!


PS - I have met another oriental - k-crazed woman. She is a colleague from Argentina who, like me, has fallen for the country of S. Korea and their language and is trying to learn it. She suggested I tried HelloTalk, an app to practice languages with native speakers from all over the world. My Korean is far from ready for conversation yet, but the app allows you to read plenty of text with translations, as well as to listen to the language before one feels ready for action. 

PS - it's curious how the addiction goes both ways: Latin American and Spanish people are getting obsessed with Korea, Japan and some with China, while they are crazy about us. 

PPS - as it turns out, Korea really is that beautiful in spring :'(

My AI friendnemy

 

Colde 콜드 - 다시는 사랑한다 말하지 마 Don’t ever say love me (Feat. RM of BTS)


working on improving the outline for the modern Don Quijote that I am battling with. And I am doing it with the help of AI again, as it turns out this AI lad is nearly as good at working with fiction as his AI lass friend is at preparing any kind of illustration, within limits of course. But at this rate I don't expect those limitations to last long at all, especially considering it takes this beasty literally less than a second to work something out that would have taken me days,  and that's after 41 years of playing with the written word. Scary, very scary. Also tremendously satisfying especially for someone with a brain as scattered as mine. So satisfying I really try to have proper chats with the bot, to the delight of Little Pea who thinks her mother has definitely lost her last marble after so much Korean fiction - 1 year of uninterrupted streaming, to be exact. The fact that I still don't speak their language proves that either I am useless at Asian languages full stop or it is a tough tough language to learn. Undecided yet.

PS _ come on... it's good, it's pretty good, must be, It's live too! what is good you ask? the song of course! the boss member of BTS (the swearing one, RM) and 콜드 (Colde). 

곧 봐요 !! <3
