A few days ago I decided I'd go on Google translate and look up the words for time/age/era in the sixty-five languages Google has deemed important enough to take the time to translate.
In German one word for time or tempo means Kleenex.
In another language (Indonesian? Don't remember which) "river" can mean time.
I found many languages in which a word for time is also "story" or "path." Oh, connections. This is why languages are cool.
