Damn it. On a whim I decided to try subtitling a youtube video in French, because I started off pretty well, finding the correct words for the wrong auto subtitles... And then, as usual (I try this stunt every few months) came across... well, a combination of sounds that makes no sense to me and I can't find in any dictionary, no matter how I interpret it (and it's not a name of a fictional city)... Makes me kind of mad. I mean, I guess there's English where my mind is adapted to produce meaningful sentences, and anything beyond that is me floundering in a sea of either primitive vocabulary that I know well and on the other hand barely familiar definitions (requiring double-checking)... And all the other many many words that I'll die before I'm able to simply memorize them, let alone learn to appropriately use...

Damn it... I mean, okay, I can't transcribe a video now. When am I going to be able to? Ever?

The kind of questions I like to ask the uncaring universe.
