I've just been handed a copy of "Les 500 mots des sports paralympiques d'ete" -- or "The 500 words of summer paralympic sports."
It's a primer of basic paralympic phrases in English, French and Greek and is full of useful terms.
"Amputation tibiale" means below-knee amputation.
"Prosthese de competition" means competition prosthesis.
And the French for stump is "moignon."
Your Athens' blogging has been a bit unimpressive so far. I guess sport reporting is not your first choice. Are you just miserable the whole time or is there any positive going on?? Looks whether you might be a bit more enthusiastic during the Paralympics...
ReplyDeleteSeems to me that blogging is all about saying what you want, however you want to say it. If you want consistent sports reporting, perhaps the newspaper may be a better choice.
