A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z ?

A - Aberystwyth

I have often thought that "a nostalgic yearning which is in itself more pleasant than the thing being yearned for" needed a word. However, after reading The Meaning of Liff (or it might have been the Deeper meaning of Liff) I noticed one already existed; so rather than devise my own, I thought it best to adopt the one provided by Douglas Adams et al.. It's a rather useful word which can apply to many things and situations (mainly food in my case) such as: Fish and Chips, McDonalds, Hot Dogs, and Pot Noodles.

Person B: No! Don't even think it.
Person A: Buh... Big Mac 0_o

J - Je ne pense pas

This is my attempt at a French equivalent for ‘I think not’. If literally translated I think it ends up meaning ‘I do not think’, so I’m not sure if the phrase is 100% correct. Perhaps it is more of an ‘I don’t think so’, but whether that is an honest response type ‘I don’t´think so’ such as:

Person A: Is the Lisseyviggeen stone circle in County Sligo?
Person B: Je ne pense pas.

or whether a more sarcastic or aggrivated ‘I don’t think so’/‘I think not’:

Person A: Don’t make me delete your WoW profile…

Maybe it doesn’t work in the same way in French, but meh, ‘tis a good phrase...
