Fandom: The True Universal Language
Apr. 12th, 2011 03:38 pmToday we have a group of visitors from Lafragua, a five hundred year old Mexican University, here to do a presentation on their digitization projects and look at our premises. (They are also one of our partners in Los Primeros Libros.) Anyway, Anton asked Todd and I to do one of our collection spiels and meet with them, so we did. Anton has also had his hands full translating back and forth, so he introduced us in Spanish--which I can follow when spoken or written pretty well, but I can't really speak it all that well myself because my tongue trips up because my third language is Italian, and I end up just making word salad, ANYWAY--and when he introduced me I nodded and smiled and made a Live Long and Prosper gesture.
Well one of the guys LL&P'd right back.
AWESOME.
