Czech uses "Pájení" (derived from "joining") vs "Svařování" (derived from "boiling".

So, also different with different etymology in a language from a different group (although these things were probably influenced by German)


Yeah - the Czech wording is quite clever:

* the first one makes it clear a something (a different material) is used to join things together

* the second one implies you melt/boil the things to join them together

It's not just a coincidence, it's the emergence of spurious statistical correlations when observations happen across sessions rather than within sessions.

You can add an M-dash, and we completed the bs-bingo. :)

I felt a bit uneasy writing something similar into my software e2e test suite, but hey if glibc can do it, why not!
