Loving the warmth, we are having a break

in

Phuket, Thailand.

It is the rainy season, yet it is warm.

The rain usually lasts 10 minutes and the sun is out again.

Tropical flowers
Pink banana, not edible
Orchids
Frangipani

Wonderful food

Chicken fried rice
Springrolls
Pineapple rice
Phad Thai
Breakfast fruits

We visited Old Phuket town

Lovely houses
Phuket Museum

Further along  – a beautiful temple

Wat Monhkol Nimit

The Andaman Sea is beautifully warm.

Sunset over the sea,

A perfect way to finish the day.

In the land of smiles.

 Think of all the beauty 
still left around you 
and be happy.

My Favourite English Words

Posted on by

English is not my native language but I have almost mastered it, still the odd mistakes creeping in. 🙂

I love the English language it sounds warm and soft to me, unlike the hard sounding German language , my mother tongue.

There are some words in the English language which I cannot properly translate and they are such beautiful words:

 

Cherish– a wonderful word with a wonderful meaning –

1. To treat with affection and tenderness; hold dear: cherish one’s family;

2. To keep fondly in mind; cherish a memory.

 

Appreciate – another great word and I love the meaning –

1. To recognize the quality, significance, or magnitude of: appreciated their freedom.

2. To be fully aware of or sensitive to; realize: I appreciate your problems.

3. To be thankful or show gratitude for: I really appreciate your help.

4. To admire greatly; value.

5. To raise in value or price, especially over time.

 

Then there are the funny sounding words like fuzzy or furry.

They sound exactly what they mean like an onomatapoeia.

 

I put this on my bedroom door haha
