    Just 10 minutes ago, I plopped an English word into a sentence in my native language because I couldn’t think of a good word in Danish for it.

    Tbf though, “sustainable” IS a much better word for what I was talking about than any Danish one 🤷

    No, I don’t have a huge vocabulary because I am some genius. I have it because I need to have lots of words for the same thing to make up for my memory recall fail rate.
