        @dillyd that seems far more reasonable than the other way around . Still silly but less silly

          @dillyd With some scissors you can use the stickers for Castellano too. (remove the e - frágil) 😉

          Remove the accent, too: “fragil”—german.

            @dillyd Here in Wales road signs must be bilingual (Welsh/English) which gets fun when roads are named in languages that are neither. My favourite is Avenue de Clichy, though I can't tell if Welsh or English is first on the sign...
