    In the Spanish language there is also the differentiation between "Rat" (rata) and "Mouse" (ratón). So the closest translation would be "mouth mouse", in singular, because "ratón" is singular (the plural is "ratones").

    • @dhbehk5339
      @dhbehk5339 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Also, for a more faithful translation, it should be "Mouth Mouse" instead of "mouse's mouth", because the latter in Spanish would be "la boca del ratón" and it is not like that, but "Boca Ratón" (Mouth Mouse, in the same order) since it is a compund noun designating the name of a place, not a simple phrase. Sorry everyone for the bummer 😂

    Thank you, this is a beautiful city. In the mid-1990s we visited family in northern Florida and the name Boca Raton caught my attention. When we returned home after the 2nd trip I looked it up on the (new to me) internet and saw some pretty pictures of a marina and of the ocean but this was so much more comprehensive. Even now I'd like to live in Boca Raton even with the translation of the name. 😂

    As for you said the restaurant that is now a bar and wedding venue. The Addison. That was the original home and office of Addison Mizner. Across the street from there where they are building that building was the original train station that brought people down. There is also a neighborhood a little west on Palmetto Park Road called Old Floresta. He designed and built many of the homes in that neighborhood.

    Just some notes about Boca. The City Hall you went into is the City Hall complex which is going to possibly be demolished for a new city center. The Mizner built town hall that you are referring to is historic site built-in the 1920s. it is called Town hall and the Boca Raton historic museum is located inside. there are other notable historic features in Boca including the old train station, his old house which is on Camino Real, the Boca Raton resort. Also the Royal Palm Plaza which was also designed by him

    The corporate office for Office Depot is not what you noted on Glades Road - that's just a store. The headquarters is on Military Trail, a little further northwest. Office Depot just announced a sale leaseback on that property as well. Mizner Park and Royal Palm were built around the 80s - long after Addison was dead. They were built in his style. The Addison Restaurant you noted at S. Dixie and Camino Real is in one of his original buildings.

    Every single one of the properties you passed look like they are part of a super extended Billionaires' Row. It is interesting to see how buildings in Florida look so different from other parts of the USA. They don't seem to be made of brick, unless the brick is covered in white cladding or something. The area is a paradise. Wow. What a place.

    One other historical fact. The Camino Gardens neighborhood you drove through is known for their white roofs. Also when you first came into the neighborhood on the left where that red bridge was that was an old zoo built in the 1900s a thing called Africa USA.

    Good video. The corporate headquarters for Office Depot is in Boca Raton, not Office Max. Office Depot acquired Office Max in 2013. By the way, you're turning signal is quite loud and disrupts the flow of the tour. You don't need to turn on your signal from a turning lane. Everyone knows you're turning. It gets old after a while. Cheers.

    To drive in this area you just have to remember the other motorists are either (a) drunk or (b) off their heads or (c) suffering from dementia - and you'll be fine. If you want to practice defensive driving this is the best place on the planet for it.

    What is amazing in watching all your videos... Are the various districts, neighborhoods in the greater Miami and South Florida area. Especially the number of green and beautiful landscapes that are incorporated into them. You are selling South Florida better than any real-estate agency in the area. I would like for you to someday do a video on how many people who watched your videos came down to South Florida and the greater Miami area. It wouldn't surprise me if it would be in the thousands... 😎

It befuddles me how a great and world renown city like Miami, Florida can keep its streets clean. And the amount of growth that is taking place there. There is a great site titled "The Next Miami (TNM)." It lets one know what is coming down the pike in regard to all the projects that are taking place and future projects. This is a wealth of information that may help you in your future videos. All the best and thank you for your response to my comments.
