I just punned. In a hashtag. In Latin.

Unintentionally.


I should be allowed to take the rest of the day off.

Or given a standing ovation. Possibly both.

You could share, for those of us not tweeting.

I just wanted to do a hashtag about losing my voice at worldcon, and so "con" was obvious, like 'concrud." But then I ran out of characters. So instead of "voice" I used "vox."

#convox

Which yeah, has the echo of concrud I was looking for. But also...

Well done. Which I think would be "benissime" well done, or well blessed.
I did love Latin, but it has been too many decades.

On Facebook, we would "Like" you. On Twitter, we would Retweet. Here, we just say, Excellent!

Not knowing that much Latin, I used Google translate:
con vox = the voice

Well done, indeed.

[lagilman]

"with" voice, actually. It's a root, rather than a word that would translate easily.

By now you either have or have not taken the rest of the day off. Right?

I applaud your talent.

Excellent!
