What do people think she means by saying Maria Paseka is the "simplest" foreign gymnast?
ReplyDeleteTo call someone simple in English can mean they are slow/stupid! Perhaps this has been lost in translation and means down to earth/uncomplicated!
ps I'm rather fond of Ms Paseka :D & I agree with her comments on Sandy Izbasa ;-)
Yes down to earth thank you, I am sorry but in Italian she said simpatica which literally means simple and I was trying to find the English word for it and "down to earth" didn't cross my mind. :)
DeleteThank you - Keep up the good work :)
DeleteSimpatica does not mean simple, it means nice, likable.
DeleteOops sorry
