Elizabeth Tai | 戴秀铃 🇲🇾Just came out of the cinema and well, this movie was surprisingly good! Highly recommended.
Except...wtf is a childe??
It bugged me throughout the movie 😂🤣
PS: Movie should also be called "We Are All Crazy Here".
radioactivestardust@liztai native title is 귀공자 (gwigongja) = young prince, it also says "nobleman"
My german translation says "edelknabe" which is an old word for a young royal (like a boy who becomes a knight)

@bookstardust Young Prince would have made an interesting and better title hehe
Alix@liztai Not sure if this is relevant, but in old-style English aristocratic language a Childe (or Child) is the young heir to a noble, who hasn’t yet been knighted and accepted as an adult.
There’s an old poem about a Childe <insert name> that I can’t remember. What I can find are 19th-century Romantic poets doing a revival and writing about Childe Harold (Byron) and Childe Roland (Browning).
