Well, we discussed those two things, Mia (who does the translation of these, I proofread and edit and fix) and I. Hard to find words for those, so that the humour would come through. |

Yup, definitely once again examples of expressions that give gray hair to those doing the transalations... LOL *wanders off looking for hair dye* ;D |

Hi, I'm new here. Saw some were talking about Sauli's "tattoo". Hope this is where I should post this, but....has anyone else noticed he wears a gold band on his right hand. Has for awhile now, just curious. I think they're adorable together and as long as Adam is happy, I'm happy  |

Has for awhile now, just curious. I think they're adorable together and as long as Adam is happy, I'm happy Hi and welcome!  Yes, I'm not sure whether it's a gold or a silver band but he has been wearing it since the end of September, at least. Please join us in the News thread as well! |

Catching up on all the goodies today, and just read the Tutka translation-- thanks again to both of you, and YAY, how cool that Katri and Sauli know about your translations!!!! You're famous! A couple random thoughts... I wonder what is the "surprise" that Katri mentioned near the end of the vid? After Adam's interviews today, it seems that he'll be heading to Europe at the end of January. I wonder if Sauli will accompany him, and so maybe the surprise is that he and Katri will do some Tutkas together again? Just musing... Also I have a question about a phrase that has come up in the last couple of Tutkas. When Sauli was talking about trying to download the tv-watching program on his computer, he said he was "losing his nerves" over it. And that reminded me that in the last Tutka when they were talking about Sauli returning early to the U.S., Katri said several times that Sauli "lost his nerves" and Sauli said the same thing. When I read the phrase in the post-Christmas Tutka, the way I took the meaning is that Sauli lost his courage or became a bit frightened (which is how we use "lost my nerve" here). But in today's Tutka, I felt like Sauli was saying he lost his patience with the computer program and that he didn't have a lot of patience for complicated computer issues. So now I'm wondering if the Finnish phrase in both situations was the same and if I misunderstood his meaning about leaving Finland early. Did he simply mean that he lost patience with the darkness and the lack of snow? LOL I know this is very much going into tiny details, but I love words and I love figuring out little nuances of meaning Thanks again for all you do!  |

Oh, just listened to the Virgin interview again and I'm totally berting over the way Adam pronounces Sauli's name. Most Americans would probably say it: Sowwlee all slurred into one sound, or Sawlee (lol) but when Adam says it, it almost sounds like Sow-will-ee. Very carefully enunciated, awwww  I can imagine Sauli teaching him the pronunciation and Adam practicing over and over again soon after they met until he got it right, lol. Okay, I'll stop before I embarrass myself with all this berting over the two of them!  |
