Not me using "recirculate" for "recycle" because that's what you say in my other two languages.

@AeroBlazt oh, come to think of it, that was another concern of mine: which language I should use on my accounts

You can get some lovely macarons from Maison Bigot in Versailles. 😂 Apparently French “bigot” is less harsh than the English term, meaning something like “holier-than-thou” or “sanctimonious”.

Ah, the morning language wheel, wherein I try to maintain my languages and inevitably end up wondering how anyone can live with ten languages in their head.

Memrise: *here is some Italian*
Me: *stares at it for five minutes trying to remember which is the Italian*

Memrise: Translate 'the call' into French.
Me: ...llamada. chiamata. chamada... L'APPEL. Fuck you French you're not special.
