An very squashed English to French dictionary, published in 1940 by Burgess and Bowes, 3 inches tall. While I probably could try to straighten it out a little, I’d rather not. The way it’s smushed out of shape is actually pretty convenient, it lets you easily flick through it to the word you need. And I dunno, it’s kind of endearing? The poor little thing is doing it’s best.

“Invaluable” is one of those funny words because you’d think the “in-”, as in “not”, would mean it means “not valuable”, i.e. “worthless”, but it’s the exact opposite
It means “without value” in the sense that you’re incapable of attaching material value to it because it’s just so incredibly Good And Precious that it is beyond that. It means “priceless”.
The English language fucking sucks so much I love it
