@kura it's how Italian's say pasta

[oblomov@sociale.network]

@kaia @kura dafuq are you saying, we say pasta. Basta actually exists as an Italian word and it means “stop”, “no more” or “enough”.

So you can say for example «basta pasta» which means «no more pasta»

@ellenor2000 @oblomov @kaia @kura

Consonantal migration and vowel (or bowel) shifts for the win.
