Denial is close to Genial

Post by eslapion »

It occured to me that the english word "denial" is very close to the french word "genial" which means "awesome" or "brilliant".

So I guess that makes Denial an awesome forum... on top of being actually genial.

Great similarity. Genial also means "friendly, cheerful" in English. Other similarities are less interesting (Dental: the forum for a white smile; Venial: every insult is forgiven) :).
