In Sandic, Thanksgiving is usually rendered as ba mon aan kaja (The day for thanking). Something funny happened to me yesterday, though, so this year I am instead wishing you something different!
A customer with whom I always speak Spanish at work came in yesterday, and on her leaving, I wanted to wish her a happy holiday. I couldn't remember- and didn't know- the word in Spanish for Thanksgiving, so she completed my sentence for me!
"Feliz dia...."
"...del pavo!"
"Happy... turkey day!"
I thought that was hilarious, so now I'm passing on the joy to you.
Le:ian monab auzoi ba gobthii, le:ee ta ivin!
Happy Turkey Day, everyone!
