And My Comment:

Actually, You guys got it from us Jews. It's from Yiddish, into which it had entered as the Jewish version of the german "Na ja" ("На я"), which meabs something like "Okay, if You so insists, I will"... 😃

In Modern Hebrew, it can mean either:

"נוּ, בּוֹא כּבר!!" = "Nu, come already!!"

Or

"נוּ???" = "Well??? What say You to today's news / that last event / recent development on the World's stage???" (as in ❤️Dòdly❤️ at Friday Evening, back on the Good Ol' Eighties...😄)

My Most Favourite Places

Image
Peoplim, Between 2012 and 2021, I had created and uploaded quite a few "My Most Favourite Places" vids - the two most recent uploads, from the lockdowns' era, can still be found here and here . Конечно, those two vids are now  painfully out of date, and mostly show places I, for obvious reasons, shall NEVER   set foot at anymore. Mostanaban, конечно, I no longer have the technical ability to create such vids, as I no longer have any computer, but ONLY my phone, which I have been using for all things ecer since July '23; so, I've decided to try and create a Blog Post in its stead, containing several pics of each of my current Most Favourite Places in this Universe.😃 Enjoy: Sacred ❤️Pardésland🍋🍊🌳💚 "❤️Turist🏡❤️", ❤️Babruysk❤️ = ❤️Home❤️ ...

Smaller, More Personal, than an Official Ĥotel

They might be called  Guest House, Inn, Pension, Villa, Home Stay  or Bed and Breakfast. Some of them, might even be called (1, or 2 star) Hotel. They are a different category, more than an air-bnb, less than an actual Hotel. In most cases, they are ran by the Family whose Home it is. Some of them have Breakfast year-round (or upon request), some of them only have Breakfast during Summertime, or Summer and Spring, and still others never do. Some of them might have various perks, such as free Tea/Coffee and Biscuits, or free laundry. They usually clean your room about twice a week (or, in montenegro: only once a week, at best ). They rarely have any actual, manned reception desk (or only have it during high season). And, from May 2024 on, whenever I was not able to live at ♥️Home♥️ (meaning: at "♥️Turist♥️"😍❣️😍❣️😍 ), I have mostly lived in them. Here Is a List of All these Places I Have Stayed at, in a Chronological Order : "Hotel Damir", samarkand - May 2024: ...

What IS "Europe"? 😃

In the cultural sphere governed by california and its... people, when one says "Europe", one normally means something along the lines of France italy britain/england Portugal Catalonia ¹ the netherlands belgium and spain, with perhaps the addition of germany Ireland austria switzerland czechia ²  and... well, some scandinavian country. If, at an american movie (let's say, a Ginger Bells film, manufactured by "Hallmark" ), a character (normally[❓️] an aging Mother-figure with severely unnaturally-coloured hair, due to her pathetically desperate attempt to look younger than her daughter😂 Really, takhles: What's Closed with all those characters' hair- colouring??? 🤣 Почему, at age 70[!!], do those women  desperately try   to look 25??? 🤣🤣) goes to "Europe", that "Europe" kinda bounds to be one of the western Latin countries, ie.: France, italy, Catalonia ¹ , Portugal and spain. Some times, she might (if the movie was made by a diffe...
