Day 46 - 270.5: Lost in Translation

Today was a breakthrough and a reality check on the Hindi front. This evening as I was working out, my older son came in and started to jam with me. Soon enough my younger son joined in and we were bustin' moves and belting out Hindi lyrics. We've practiced as we looked at the lyrics, so the pronunciation is pretty damn good. So we're awesome, right? Sure, until they start asking, "what does 'tujh' mean, Mom?". Okay - this is not such a simple question. I spent over an hour trying to run this word through translators...nothing. I did find out that the statement "tujh mein" means "inside you" (maybe) from some obscure response on Answers.com, then a very cerebral, challenging, albeit informative discussion thread on a WordReference.com forum. So, some sort of reflexive verb forms...who knows? Not me, that's for sure. I am more resolved than ever to get my Rosetta Stone on and work it.

Anyhoo....

Breakfast - the latte and a handful of almonds
Lunch - same as yesterday
Dinner - same as yesterday

Exercise - a seriously gratifying Bollywood jam with my sons. Mom's brainwashing initiative is a unqualified success....HADIPPA!!!!!
