From OP:

Indistinct green shapes swirled overhead. The world seemed to be screened from me by a thick haze of fog and confusion. This smelled of craniocerebral trauma,

He had wavy shoulder-length brown hair and large brown eyes. I guess he'd be considered hot if you were into that sort of thing (which I wasn't) and by that sort of thing I mean men.

"You're the most gorgeous girl in the world," Legolas said. "You're a liar and also a creep" I responded and then I slapped him across the face.

I wish Boromir was my dad.

In the end they sent me to live out my days on a small farm in the middle of nowhere. It suited my tastes.

pain slashed through my frail body and I said a very bad word

For example, a couple years ago, while learning Spanish, I encountered the word for a store, "la tienda." I thought "huh, that's a lot like tener (tiene) - the word for store in Spanish literally corresponds to 'to have/keep'. How interesting!"

False cognates happen all the time, within one language and when comparing two or more languages.

The word "tienda" is NOT actually related to "tener/tiene."

"Tienda" in Spanish means "tent," and it comes from the same Latin root word as the English word "tent." Every Latin-based language, including Spanish, Portuguese, French, and even Romanian, has a similar word.

"Tener/tiene" does mean "have/keep/hold," but it is unrelated to "tienda." "Tener" comes from an entirely different Latin root word.

However, the word "store" is the same in both instances. It refers to a place where items may be kept OR a place where items may be purchased (though the latter is mainly used in North America).

I'm not a linguist, but it's as simple as looking it up with a reputable source. It is so helpful to know root words instead of just guessing!

However, tener and tender are actually ultimately related, both derived from the same Proto-Indo-European root *ten- meaning "stretch". The meaning "have" coming from earlier meaning "to hold". Presumably the connection between stretch and hold being something like stretching your hand out to hold something?

Literacy crisis WHO? This was said in the most vocal fried Californian accent ever. I hope The Girls enjoy some Russian lit this summer.

In the next panel, the focus shifts to the two women. The other woman, a black woman with long locs, responds with a closed eye smile, "Yaaas. Like Dostoevskyyy"
