    I saw this in a movie about a bus that had to speed around the city keeping its speed over 50 and if it’s speed dropped, it would explode. I think it was called “the bus that couldn’t slow down”

        tid translates to time. Hour translates to time.

        Enjoy your aneurism.

          Another for you. In Denmark, we have bicycle traffic lights and they sometimes show you how long it’ll take until the light is green. They say

          Tid til grøn

          Which is almost pronounced “til ti grøn”

          Always makes me laugh a little

            til ti grøn

            As a non-Dane, what’s funny about this?

              Tid is pronounced til, and til is pronounced ti

              Idk, it’s not much but I find it silly

                Tid isn’t prononounced “til”.

                  To an English speaker it almost is, like I kinda said above?

                  Perhaps a bad anecdote

              It’s the reverse of Norwegian where “tid” is pronounced “tea”(english) and “til” is pronounced between “teal”(English) and “till”(english). The “d” is silent.

              But the Danish pronunciation is a little confusing because the d in tid is pronounced and is done so like an English “L”, at least in this instance while the “L” is silent.

            Ah. My suggestion of an aneurysm was commenting on how i wrote the reply, not necessarily the translations themselves.

    I made a tutorial video for a twin stick and one of the dudes I was chatting with told me that my username means crude thing. Or something, it was a while ago.

    “Fart” synopsis:

    Howard Payne gets on a fully packed bus he glued the windows and the doors shut right after he ate a lot of broccoli, cabbage, beans, etc., with the hopes of being able to extort $10 million from the police…

    You’ve obviously neverheard of the illustrious 8th century Norwegian King, Eystein the Fart.
