#i was looking for what time machine is in french and when i put machine temporelle into google dutch wikipedia came up#which is funny bc this page doesnt even exist in french?#but theres also some physics article from 2017 that uses machine temporelle so im gonna assume it's a real word#and use it#bc im not using 'machine à voyager dans le temps' im sorry#it's good for my word count maybe but can you imagine if they had to say all that every time?#i like french a lot but i dont like how many words it uses to say anything#french is like why use 1 word when 4 will do#just make up some words im begging you all this circumlocution is making me nuts#it doesnt gel with my writing style At All#missy voice: im cutting to the chase babey im streamlining im saving us a c t u a l minutes#missy when she needs to say 'machine à voyager dans le temps' every time: okay so we're not doing that#ursula voice: im a very busy lady and i havent got all day#missy writing a letter to the academie français: im a TIME LADY. do you udnerstand#do you understand how using a minimum of 6 SIX words every time i refer to my vehicle is funnily enough a waste of my time?#im sure we can do something about this#and if not im sure your successor can <3
