I'm not sure what the connection between young Harry and Albania is but I suppose it beats a portrait of ex-King Zog.And on scrawled on a sign at the entrance to Via Appia Antica was this rather touching plea - though given the speed with which on coming traffic approaches the marito would have to have keen sight or be, like us, on foot.
To my husband from your wife - I love you - come back.
And my first thoughts about how this sign outside a restaurant should be translated had me wondering if as advertising it was just a tad defeatist. However Qui nun se more ma does not mean - as I first thought - No one dies here anymore..
What it means, very loosely translated, is: Here no one will starve to death.Silly observations that suggest perhaps I should get a more interesting life but ....

I love you little translation better..in fact if I ever open up a bar I am going to put a sign up that says, no one ever dies here....
Personally, i think it shows how interesting life can be with just a little knowledge of another language.
