yeah that nova-myth is really persistent as of late, even though Snopes tried killing the myth a few years back.
First of all, the phrase "no va" (literally "doesn't go") and the word "nova" are distinct entities with different pronunciations in Spanish: the former is two words and is pronounced with the accent on the second word; the latter is one word with the accent on the first syllable. Assuming that Spanish speakers would naturally see the word "nova" as equivalent to the phrase "no va" and think "Hey, this car doesn't go!" is akin to assuming that English speakers woud spurn a dinette set sold under the name Notable because nobody wants a dinette set that doesn't include a table.
* Although "no va" can be literally translated as "no go," it would be a curious locution for a speaker of Spanish to use in reference to a car. Just as an English speaker would describe a broken-down car by saying that it "doesn't run" rather than it "doesn't go," so a Spanish speaker would refer to a malfunctioning automobile by saying "no marcha" or "no funciona" or "no camina" rather than "no va."

Grey/London has picked a unique venue for its annual round of graduate recruitment. The agency is renting out the house where the U.K. version of the reality show Big Brother is set, according to the BBC. The Orwellian house of horrors and its panopoly of cameras "helps you to discover if one of the group is not a team player or is really irritating," an agency representative explains.
yes I know.. Sweden has always been against ads aimed at children. Ads targeted to kids don't bother me as much as ads/sponsorships sneaking into schools and preschools - this is icky beyond!
In school, kids shall sit and pay attention - and that attention we manage to squeeze out of a 6 year old should be used to teach them valuable knowledge such as spelling etc. To use this attention area to hammer home an Oscay Mayer song is just wrong. Thats all.
anyone else have an opinion?
