in my quest for an *ANT*idote to boredom

skipping a day in school on the pretext of studying just never works out.
    instead of doing the 4 lessons i promised myself i'd finish by today, here i am, amidst sunflowers, Adele and the very gorgeous Cristiano Ronaldo (who has an overall total of 7 goals in the 7 preseason games, btw). i've already shared the sunflowers and Adele... let's stop for a minute and drool over this before we move on to my next topic:


....okay....
*reluctantly drags eyes away from picture*
moving on....


with nothing better to do (no, studying doesn't count) i decided i'd learn something new today (apart from what i'm s'posed to).
and sooooo, i turned to Google Translate!
and learned how to say "ant" in 25 different languages.
here we go:
  1. Portuguese - formiga
  2. Arabic - (namila) نملة
  3. Chinese - 蚂蚁 (mayi)
  4. Finnish - muurahainen
  5. French - fourmi
  6. German - ameise 
  7. Greek - μυρμήγκι (miriminki)
  8. Hungarian - hangya
  9. Icelandic - maur
  10. Indonesian - semut (say-moot)
  11. Italian - formica
  12. Japanese - アリ (ari)
  13. Kannada - ಇರುವೆ (iruve) 
  14. Korean - 개미 (gaemi) 
  15. Latvian - skudra
  16. Norweigan - maur
  17. Polish - mrówka
  18. Romanian - furnică 
  19. Russian - муравей (muravyei)
  20. Serbian - мрав (mrav)
  21. Spanish - hormiga
  22. Tamil - எறும்பு (erumpu)
  23. Telugu - చీమల (cimala) 
  24. Turkish - karınca (karinja)  
  25. Thai - มด (md)  

quite an ANTidote to boredom, don't you think? (hawhaw i'm PUN-NY)
