New Word
Since my co-workers and friends are very helpful in showing me notes, we have settled on "eurotraquer" ... or I have, at leastYannn wrote:Doesn't sound very French to me...alex77r wrote:In french : ebtaliser
What about billotraquer ?
but since talking and long words are indeed de rigueur in France, there's always "participer sur Internet au suivi et à l'encodage des billets libellés en euros dans le but de gagner une cyber-retrouvaille"
But "eurotraquer" sums it up nicely...
In the spoken Finnish ebtata would be pronounced eptata, because b isn't a Finnish letter. There are some letters that are difficult for the Finnish speaking people to say. B becomes p, f -> v and g -> k, for example.airis wrote:In Finnish the verb might be ebtata
So this hobby is called ebtaus or ebtaaminen
But Finns already use the word träkkäys (tracking). -->v. träkätä, s. träkkääminen or träkkäys
Tr wasn´t used in Finnish this way, so in some dialects the spoken word would be räkkäys. That is close to the word rääkkäys which means torturing (animals).
In Finnish it's ebtisti or ebtaaja. Ebtaaja sounds more Finnish, I would say.lmviterbo wrote: just tell me: how do you call someone who ebtalises?
