Sorority Recruitment Translations

WARNING - HIGH SNARK POTENTIAL IN THIS THREAD.


It seems to me that certain phrases keep popping up, and to the uninitiated they might mean something other than what the user assumes they mean. We should help. Drolefille is of course the queen of translations, so I'm hoping she, and all the GCers who are bilingual, will pitch in.

1. "My daughter didn't feel a connection" - translation: My daughter was absolutely sure she would be in a top tier sorority, and now they have cut her she won't consider any "lesser" chapters.

Any others?
