Afandi Quiz #139: Mysterious language

๐Ÿ†• We only get to hear a tiny fraction (=small part of sth) of the worldโ€™s 6,000+ languages. Thatโ€™s a shame. Give your curious ears a treat from time to time!

โ–ถ๏ธ The language this lady is speaking sounds truly mysterious. What could it be?

Our favourite mistakes #151: Grammar

โ–ถ๏ธ Please translate the following sentence:
Xudoga shukur!

โŒ Perhaps you think it is:
Thanks God!

โœ… Well, it should be:
Thank God!

โ“Why?

It sounds like youโ€™re talking to God. ๐Ÿ˜‡

โ—๏ธ Thanks has two uses: a) to thank somebody directly in a conversation or b) to give a reason for some good result, e.g. My English is getting better every day thanks to Afandi English.

โ—๏ธ To thank sb/sth is a transitive verb and thank here is a third-person imperative, similar to the Uzbek -sin suffix in bersin or qilsin.

Know Your World #67: The Great Global Warming Swindle

โ–ถ๏ธ Hereโ€™s a 2007 British documentary that claims global warming is a swindle (=cheating). The term โ€œglobal warmingโ€ has since been abandoned in favour of the more universal โ€œclimate changeโ€. Itโ€™s been heavily criticised for going against mainstream science.
