I'm waiting for BBVA to take over Santander and require that Basque be added.

Fortunately I don't have to purchase a new Moomin cup from the Finnish supermarket (Prisma) every time I stop there on my way to work to purchase something to eat at lunch. Although I am often tempted. The Snufkin cup is so beautiful.

[oh, we have the slightly embarassing "temake" (third person singular pronoun + deminutive suffix) that was coined sometime in the 20th century to mean "she"; fortunately this can be encountered only in archaic-sounding translations of European novels and most people are unaware of it]

as a first-language speaker of Estonian (which has no genderd pronouns), I concur that gendered pronouns are the worst but this mistake seems to have been made thousands of years ago and isn't going away in the foreseeable future

Probably these provisions were inherited from the respective law of the Russian Empire but the language of the Estonian version was very elegant.

The pre-WW2 Estonian criminal code mandated very specific penalties for all the participants of the duel customs (seconds etc), so that the ritual can pretty much be reconstructed from the text of the law. I just never seem to get round to finding the text again. It was beautiful.

this is the reason that some fundamental rights (and mechanisms of governance) should be written into laws (or constitutions) that are difficult to change; cf Aristotle's politeia vs democracy
