the only emotion i've seen spanish-speakers use is some sort of finely modulated form of the anglo-saxon mood called "excited", so "ayayayayayay" or maybe "chachacha"

which emotion? we have Ah! for 'oh, will you look at that, so that's how it is', Oh! for something more surprised but less interested, and [insert profanity] for real astonishment.

Not bad at all, Torco. I do say that I think you look better with beard, but that's because I'm completely biased and happy to admit my bias.

just out of curiosity, if you met me and didn't know me, what country would you think I was from? I've gotten a range of answers from people in the past...

I'd just say "the Middle East". Do you seriously expect the average Western European person to do any better?
(And does the Caucasus count as the Middle East? I've only ever met one person from that part of the world - a Georgian girl at my old school.)

no Caucasus, is just the Caucasus, separate from Middle East, different culture, different people, different DNA, etc.

Looking at you, not Armenia. Probably the Balkans, to be quite honest.

You've never really left us with any doubt as to where you're from, so the way I think is always going to be tainted by that. :P
