What are you going on about?

The problem is: what else?

Oh trust me, it happens a lot even between native speakers, and it irks me too haha

From a quick search that didn't provide anything really insightful, it seems that at least in Italian the term has been used since the XIV century, so it's not photocopy related

Wait, the resemblance thing is also used in other languages: "spitting image" in English, for example, and "copia sputata" in Italian. I'm actually wondering for the first time where it comes from, so maybe there's a reason for the Portuguese saying to be related to spit

That's literally a spectrograph

Why does this read like a list written by chatGPT?

Why?

Italian here

We give a lot of shit to our train system (and rightly so) but it actually works quite well, in comparison to our European neighbours.

Bologna to Milano is a very nice line indeed

I got that reference!

I agree with you, but why would you make a calla and listen to music at the same time?

I have the same surname as one of the most important composers in music history from the 1500-1600. It wouldn't be so bad if I wasn't a musician, and a composer specifically, myself.

Every people I've interacted with in my trade has made some remarks on it, and if someone searches "[name] composer" they obviously won't get to my music!
