Translation

 I'm up to six hundred sixty-something days in a row on Duolingo, attempting to learn a bit of Spanish. It's slow going, but I'm trying. 

One portion of the Duolingo program has little stories to read and answer questions about. A recent story had two of the recurring characters protesting the presence of a statue on their school campus. One of the characters attached herself to the statue in protest.

And that was the moment when I learned that the word for "handcuffs" is the same as the word for "wives". 

Oh, dear.
