Any bilingual/multilingual people out there who like to help me out? You'll get - okay. You'll just get thanks. But they will be very sincere thanks.

Oh, thank god, I just spent about ten minutes trying to understand that. I got something like, 'the heat-bodied soul of a wolf?'. I thought maybe it was a Sirius/Lupin Greek joke... (what? That could happen!)

It really is an evil icon. Especially to use around Classicists. There's always the intitial laugh at the concept, and then an increasing feeling of distress as they realize that *they* don't quite get it either.

It's probably my favorite icon

ahahahahahaha WOLVES. Lupe! Wolves! *dies* WOLVES.

There NEED to be more grief/wolf puns out there. Like, NOW. I can totally see it! Medea: My heart is destroyed...by a WOLF!

It took me ages to remember that 'lupe' was in fact 'pain' and not 'wolf', and, there, I just forgot it again the moment I gave up Greek. Like it took me ages to learn that pocius means 'cup', not 'pig'. I never lived down making that mistake in class, though.
