Sad, drunk or wise?

Sad, drunk or wise?

Before I forget, that Slovenian translator, Vlasta (see post about bees!), told me in passing something that I think well illustrates Europe’s cultural diversity and richness. If I say, in English, that I’m feeling blue, it means that I’m feeling sad. But in German, if you say somebody’s blue, it means that they are drunk. And if you say the say thing in Slovenian, it means that somebody is wise. Europe, endless!
