I don’t know whether it’s a urban legend, but apparently Icelandic has a hundred or so names for snow. We have many specific words for what is important for our survival. 🍝🍕🤌

But if Italians have 100 words for spaghett, did somebody touch mine?

Here in Australia the rumor is that snow is made up by other countries to flex on us!

Yeah but you also have to turn your monitors upside down to read and are constantly living with spiders in your ears.

I made love to an Inuit lady once and after she had a thousand words for disappointment.
