  4. (6/6) Modest spelling/pronunciation changes for country names, like #Nauru to #Naoero, usually don't result in a change in #Chinese, which adopts foreign names by picking eloquent full-syllable symbols with loosely similar pronunciations, since it doesn't have individual letters.

  5. (2/6) "Naoero" - actually the original local-language name of Nauru - now promoted for use in English and other languages (see below) - is apparently pronounced roughly like the English words "now-arrow". Does that sound right, Nauruans?

  10. Sometimes You Get To Remotely Explore Some Spatial Stuff In A 'Very Different' Part Of The The World

    [โ€˜borrowedโ€™ photos from those that HAVE visited Kosrae itself, me next please!]

  12. La propiedad de las piedras rai de las islas Yap de Micronesia se transferรญan en herencias, matrimonios, alianzas, acuerdos polรญticos, recompensas o, en menor medida, alimento. Como son grandes y delicadas, no solรญan moverse, usรกndose incluso cuando se perdรญan en el mar. Su propiedad se transmitรญa en la tradiciรณn oral y tenรญa un valor acordado segรบn su tamaรฑo, historia y elaboraciรณn.๐Ÿ“ทScot Nelson #micronesia
