ok one thing i noticed in the silver chair is that one of the giants says ‘beetles fancy other beetles, they do say’ which is an irish proverb, ‘aithníonn ciaróg ciaróg eile’ (lit. a beetle recognises another beetle ie. it takes one to know one) which is 1) the only time i’ve ever heard this used in english and 2) i’m maybe the only person in the world who’s noticed or who cares
