Hey my friend, you have been very quick with your "G" post 👍😁

You have chosen nice words and suitable cool photos what made a very good post.

Did you know that some of your words begin with a "G" in German too?

Grave = Grab
These grave stones and sculptures are beautiful and might look very good in black and white too.

Griffins - Gold = Greif - Gold
The "Vogel Greif" or "The Griffin" can be found in the Grimm's Fairy Tales collected by the Brothers Grimm.

Gasmask = Gasmaske and Garage = Garage in German

I like that old Grinder - I have just had a look, and seen that our "old" wooden coffee grinder in the kitchen looks much younger than yours, but in some years it will be antique too ;)

Have a nice evening and a wonderful weekend @qwerrie 🙂

Cheers and !BEER

hey! that is the feature of the Roman languages, I guess. some words (Geld, Gelde) are very old, some have the Latin (Roman) basis. And in this case with my post, they are of non-Russian origin, probably of Roman or English origin.
here is a little !BEER pause...

funny thing: 'Grab' in Russian means a tree, one of the species relative to the beech (Buche, Rotbuche in German).

you have been very quick with your "G" post

the more notably,-- this time I was lucky to be noticed and upvoted (and I consider it happened partly due to the fact, my post was one of the first... I am not totally sure, but maybe). which made my little happy for a little time being, cause the posts were not getting nice upvotes above 2 tokens for so long...

So you want to teach me now, young man? 😂
But of course you are right - these languages belong together and many have the same base language as origin, which has split into different languages over the centuries.

I take my time - if I get nice upvotes it's fine, if not ... what can I do? In my first months here I was wondering when the best time for posting might be, but I have found out that there is no best time. So, I don't think, posting early for a challenge is good for high upvotes, but you can prove me wrong 😉

I can see there are more comments from you to which I have to reply, so I'll wish you a nice weekend later 😉

Cheers and !BEER

You need to stake more BEER (24 staked BEER allows you to call BEER one time per day)

actually, I have two fave pics here -- the Gasmask, and the (contemporary) Grinder. the rest just added as they contained the words I needed. I also like the Grave stones, but the other pics, not these I included.

Good morning @qwerrie,

yes, I agree, the gasmask looks cool and so does the grinder - I like old things.

I hope you have a wonderful sunny Sunday 🙂 🔆
