A few years ago, I had a job translating pre-Classical Greek literature into Braille.

It feels like ancient history.

This one is in spanish, but I’ll translate also!!

ΒΏQuΓ© dijo la gallina de un lado del camino a la gallina del otro lado del camino?

β€œΒ‘PA’CA! Β‘PA’CA!”

English:

What did the chicken on one side of the road say to the chicken on the other side of the road?

β€œOver here! Over here!”

(β€œPa’ca” means β€œover here” in colloquial Spanish)

(I’m of Cuban descent for reference)

A citizen of the roman empire is teleported to modern day Spain

Luckily, he is able to understand the Spanish Language to some degree because of its similarities to Latin. As he learns more, he is fine with most of the changes the Spaniards made, but disliked how β€œquid” (latin for β€œwhat”) translated.

Whenever he made his thoughts on the word known, he would get called an antique.

A man and a women order a McDonalds

The man orders a Big Mac and a large fries. His wife orders a single cheeseburger. When the woman finishes her burger she glances at her husband. He has finished his burger and is moving onto the fries.

Still hungry, she looks at the fries and asks, 'Do you mind if I have a couple?'

He sighs and says, 'I suppose so,'

So she reaches over and takes a handful. The husband turns to her and asks, 'Is that a German couple?'

Confused, she responds, 'What is a German couple?'

He says, 'nein' as he slides his food out of her reach.

3yo: Are you sure?

Me: Yes?
