I did have a bizarrely similar (to the original poster's) accident about four years ago, in which I slipped over a cookie and somehow twisted my ankle so far that it broke

From: English, Standard Arabic, (Egyptian Arabic, Palestinian Arabic)*

Alright, I've already started doing the chains. If anybody else wants to join, you better sign up soon.
@Theta: I'm afraid that unless somebody who can translate into Vietnamese or Navajo signs up, I'll force you to translate from English.

From a native's Finnish to a not-too-certain-on-Classic-guy's Classic? What could possibly go wrong?

Obviously I forgot to write in my post that I don't want to translate from Polish.
Re: التلفون المتعدد اللغات ١٦ (Polyglottal Telephone XVI)

Saturday! Unless Mr. Z steps in at the last minute saying his post wasn't serious, or something.

My post about Classical Japanese wasn't, if that's the one you're referring to. I actually forgot I posted it XDSerafín wrote:Saturday! Unless Mr. Z steps in at the last minute saying his post wasn't serious, or something.
Wait, I didn't stall all of you now, have I?...
