       @hj @piggo eeh? I always thought red in red square is because of the building color and not because it's pretty

       @rin okay these are closely related languages with a common ancestor. One of the ways languages change is words changing meaning and inversion - words changing to mean the opposite of what it originally did. I would guess to be what happened here in one and not the other.
