γαλῆν (Greek, Typo Dialect) galên [ ɡa.lɛ̂ːn] (I think, let me know if this is wrong) a weasel. Famously said by Hegelochus instead of "γαλήν" (calm sea), putting him out of a job and mocked by all to this day.

Round one: Gezellig vs 우유, uyu

Gezellig (Dutch)

Standard Dutch: [ɣəˈzɛ.ləx] West-Flemish Dutch: [həˈzɛ.ləh]

Translation: Gezellig is a famously untranslatable word. The closest translation is probably 'cosy', but it is much more than that. Whereas cosy usually only refers to a place or a setting, anything and everything can be gezellig in Dutch: a place or a setting, an atmosphere, a person, a group of people, an event... Anything you do, especially in a group, can be done in a way that is gezellig. Other ways of translating gezellig are 'convivial' or 'fun', but they also miss a lot of what 'gezellig' entails. Gezellig can also be used sarcastically: "'I'm having dinner with my bigoted relatives tomorrow.' 'Oh, gezellig.'”

Dutch is an Indo-European language belonging to the Germanic branch spoken by 16 million people in the Netherlands and 24 million total. Most speakers outside the Netherlands are from Belgium, which has a Dutch-speaking area with 7 600 000 speakers. It makes up one end of the West Germanic Dialect continuum. Dutch is also the basis for Afrikaans, spoken in South Africa.

Motivation: It is a word I use all the time in Dutch! I can never find a good way to say it in English, because none of the possible 'translations' actually say the same as 'gezellig'. The concept of 'gezelligheid' is also said to be an integral and defining part of Dutch-speaking culture.

우유, uyu (Korean)

[uju]

Translation: (cow) milk

Korean is spoken by 50 million people in South Korea and 25,4 million people in North Korea. It is almost an isolate, a language unrelated to other languages, except that there’s another Koreanic language spoken on Jeju island whose speakers are switching to Korean. The Korean script, Hangul, is pretty interesting: It’s the only big writing system which is featural, which means that the way characters look are based on how the sounds they represent are produced in the mouth, so that similar sounds look similar.

Motivation: Okay simply because it makes me happy. It's pronounced oo-yoo / u-yu and that is a simple but fun rhyme. But also! The word looks like either two little people standing next each other. Or maybe two vampires but one is missing a tooth. It just makes me happy to say and write.

Venus 1h in Solar Return is no joke, more if it’s in Leo or conjunct Rising. You’ll take your best selfies this year and you’ll also glow up! (Example with me the year I had it)

Hiç yaşanmamış bir hayattan, gecenin dipsizliğine uzanış desem haksızlık olacak… Islak ve ıssız hüzünleri yok yere isyan ettirmenin manası yok. Uyu..!
