🍁 Welcome to iLEARN! In Japan, autumn foliage has its own name: kōyō (紅葉) 🍂 For centuries, people have enjoyed momijigari ("autumn leaf hunting"), the tradition of seeking out autumn colours. Sometimes a culture names not just what we see, but how we experience it.

🎉 Welcome back to #iFUN! September means back to routines for many of us... except in Japan, where it's traditionally linked to tsukimi 🌕🎑, the custom of admiring the autumn moon. Would you rather spend a September evening catching up on emails or watching the full moon? 😅

🧠 Multilingual brain in action: "Hola, I'll send you the final version après la réunion, mas primeiro preciso revisar el último cambio." If that sentence makes perfect sense to you, you might be using too many languages every day 😅 How often does this happen to you?

📅 Did you know September hides a little secret in its name? It comes from the Latin septem, meaning seven. So why is it the ninth month? Because the ancient Roman calendar began in March. The calendar changed, but the names stayed. #DidYouKnow #LanguageFacts #Etymology

📅 Ever heard the story that Emperor Augustus stole a day from February to give August 31 days? It's a great story... but it's a myth. August already had 31 days before it was renamed in his honour. Sometimes history is less dramatic than the legends! #HistoryFacts #RomanHistory

🤔 What language does AI think in? Not English. Not Spanish. None at all. LLMs learn patterns and context across many languages, which is why they can switch between them so naturally. But nuance, culture and intent still need humans. #AI #LLM #Translation #Localization
