This is not just rotten food, it’s a whole universe, and it was in my fridge! Of course, this positive reaction may vary depending on what thing is getting rotten. This one was so colourful!! Haha. It’s a work of art!! It’s beautiful!! Please don’t send me to a psychiatric. Thanks.

DID YOU KNOW…?
ResponderEliminar…that Indonesia is the 4th most populous country in the world, with 220 million people. The 300 ethnic groups speak…365 different languages!!!! Bahasa Indonesia is the official language. Other languages include Acehnese, Ambonese, Batak, Buginese, Ceramese, Dayak, Halmahera, Javanese, Minahasa, Sundanese, Sasak, Tetum, Toraja, among others.
… that the "invention" of language is not known except for references in the Bible. It is not known what language Adam and Eve spoke. The first mention of different languages is the reference to the tower of Babel when different tongues were bestowed.
…that the invention of writing, however, is credited to the Sumerians of Mesopotamia in the 4th millennium BC. Their descendants, the Sumero-Babylonians, developed the time system that we use today: an hour divided into 60 minutes, which are divided into 60 seconds.
… that the most difficult language to learn is Basque, which is spoken in north-western Spain and south-western France. It is not related to any other language in the world.
…that Mandarin is the most spoken language in the world, followed by English. But as home language, Spanish is the second most spoken in the world.
Really interesting, isn’t it? Mostly for us who are all the time working with the language!
