So what's your name?
In the category "on se couchera moins bête ce soir" we have today's story thanks to ![]() Today we are celebrating our name day! So if you're a Галина, Галя, Галинка, Галюня, Галюся, Halya, Gali, Halyna, Galyna, Galina or some other variation, today's your day. Or rather it's either today or on the 10th of March, depending on which tradition you follow (so it says here along with the other possible date of April 29th [or 16th]). Now, everyone go "awwww" over mini!Gali. *cuddles mini!self* Happy name day to you too, mini!Gali. |

(still trying to learn the ukie keyboard... but not quite there yet but one day I'll actually be able to leave meaningful replies with that, one day.)

Je crois me souvenir que tu avais raconté que ton prénom avait été mal transcrit quand tu as quitté l'Ukraine, et qu'ils ont changé le H en G... c'est ça ou j'invente totalement ? Donc, en gros, francisé ça fait un prénom genre Alina/Aline ?

Francisé ça pourrait en effet être Alina mais il manque deux sons, en réalité je ne me suis jamais posée la question... souvent au téléphone les gens croient entendre Dalila, qui est vraiment loin de la prononciation de Galina, je pense que ça va bien avec mon nom de famille.

I, myself, have always sucked at ukie dancing... even at the summer/winter camps and other gatherings with Plast (Ukrainian Scouts) during my time in the US, I just could never get the hang of it. I'm pretty good at cooking ukie stuff so I guess everything is not so bad.

it was a lot of fun, and yes, it was hard.
i really miss some of the vegetarian ukrainian food! real varenyky, fresh borshch with smetana, omg.
my current boyfriend is from bosnia, though, so i still have quite the share of slavic food to indulge in, although balkan food is quite different! and now i'm learning bosnian, which pushed a lot of ukrainian out due to negative transfer.
