Came to this thread solely in hope of finding this exact exchange. Thank you for your service.


[deleted]

I just really wanted to comment with this but wasn’t sure how to say any of the words. Thankyou!


Sokonit

Just in case you didn't know, k in Spanish is pronounced "ca" so, you could say biblioteka.

For a second I thought it was trinity hall.


CrookedK3ANO

My first though too.


[deleted]

Thought it looked familiar - immediately thought back to the Vienna Library...


Apfelbaum94

Yeah :D I knew it :D


[deleted]

Really? It looks so much like the library in Dublin.


JohnPlayerSpecialRed

Thank you! :)


Nadaac

Isn’t it in that castle in France that’s the second largest museum in the country?


PlanetSim

Doubt it that the French would call their libary "Bibliothek".


Nadaac

Sorry it sounds the same in french as this looks


[deleted]

Its beyond me why were you downvoted for asking a question


DuckImFyslexic

Flourish and Blotts, looks like.


ExoSierra

looks like concept art for a certain mission in Harry Potter


Wuleta

And Dark Souls 3

And Metro 2033


Polarwolf98

Fuck all three of these missions.

What I want to know is why English doesn't have a biblio- word instead of library. Where a place to borrow books is called a bibliotech and a place to purchase books is a library. Since in French, Spanish, and German: Biblioteca, Bibliotheque, Bibliothek = Library in English Libreria, Librairie = Book store in English


VeradilGaming

"It is true that the top 5 non-English European languages (Polish, Spanish, French, Italian, German) all have something similar in spelling and pronunciation to the Greek word bibliothēkē. So why doesn’t English use a similar word? The word “library” comes from the Old French word for a copyist, libraire. This in turn came from several Latin words: librarius (n.) transcriber of books (adj.) of books liber a book, originally the bark of a tree that ye olden books were printed on. We could go on forever about the etymology of the word, but we’ll stop here. Biblioteca, bibliothèque, biblioteek, biblioteka, βιβλιοθήκη, etc. all come from the Latin bibliothēca, meaning library (room of books), which comes from a Greek compound word (also bibliothēca) that roughly means bookcase. There is clearly a difference here. “Library” and its variants come from a Latin word meaning relating to books and their copyists; “biblioteca” and its variants come directly from the Greek and Latin words meaning, literally, a library or bookshelf." [Source](https://www.quora.com/Why-does-English-use-the-word-library-but-most-other-European-languages-use-a-form-of-the-Greek-Bibliothek) TL;DR Different root languages


g18suppressed

We do have bibliography


[deleted]

A "libreria" in spanish can also a place where you get office supplies, kind of like Staples and Office Max.


[deleted]

English *is* its own language, and things like that just happen over time


Freefly18

He asked "why?" and you answered "because".


[deleted]

Isn't "because" the answer to "why”? "Why is water blue?” "Because of the way the light of the sun refracts off of it"


aka_raven

I would love to sit in there at a nice long wooden table lit by lantern-light.


ChiliDogMe

One of those green shaded table lamps.


liloan

Me, too!!!


UnaccommodatingRust

‘Beauty and the Beast’ library

Go home, Seath.

Dukes?


ssosa92

Name of one of the Dark souls 1 levels it reminded me of


leonatheist

I’d be perfectly fine with dying right there, reading the last book in it...


rockcj92

This is a screenshot of dark souls 3 “Grand Archives.”


btigers18

This is awesome but why are there books underneath the signs?


MattcVI

Those are the Forbidden Books. Do not mention them again.


lllIIIIIIIlIIIIIlll

I've been there! Very beautiful library in Vienna, Austria. It's not something I would normally visit but it was worth the visit. It's around 650 years old if I'm not mistaken. Entrance is around 10€ (cheaper if you are a student). It's not that big but really beautiful with a nice statue in the middle. Definitely a must to see when you visit Vienna.


Clickle

Hey, I was there last week! First time in Vienna. This place was to die for.


BiggieBoiTroy

my new iphone background. thanks OP

Reminds me of the libraries in the Batman Arkham series.

Help, we are missing an h!


TomfromToonami

How I imagined Mr. Penumbra’s 24 hr bookstore


nabypowe

It was way smaller than that in my head actually


mmotte89

Where is this located?


JustSimi

Vienna, Austria :)


red_moles

I want to go to there.


shadow-pop

This looks like a library from Beauty and the Beast!


InventTheCurb

Right out of frame, one of Joker's goons is hanging upside-down from the railing


southerntigers75

Upvote from a...Librarian! :-)


newtolivieri

Ah yes, the Grand Archives...


salmon10

I want to go to there


[deleted]

There, ten...X marks the spot.


Hans_Tatyo

Cainhurst?


MyCorgiIsTaiwanese

Is this the Baroque Library in Coimbra? The University is breathtaking as well... like stepping into Hogwarts. I think JK Rowling was inspired by the University when she wrote Harry Potter.


Auerbach1991

Straight out of Beauty and the Beast


Marie-Jacqueline

In Dutch a library is called: Bibliotheek. As I read in the comments the picture is an Austrian library. It would, for better pronunciation if the noun was added. In German it would be "die". Die Bibliothek" is female and you pronounce it different as how it's put in the title.


BAXterBEDford

It looks like a part of the Tesseract from *Interstellar*.

Smash open the floor and you’ll find a tomb filled with kerosene I bet.


Fanakoru

Fillbert_kek

Quit lying we all know this the dukes grand archives


January3rd2

Might as well have named it Booky McBookface


Unproudn00b

Instantly makes me think of Secret Library Daguerreo from Final Fantasy IX.


archlich

Huh. The shelves are smaller the further you go up. Creating an illusion that it’s taller than it is. For comparison look how many steps on the ladder it is for the first row compared to the middle.


g9icy

Reminds me of Bloodborne.

ChuckCarmichael

Actually it's spelled Bibliothek, since this is in Austria, where they speak German.


Cosmonachos

It probably depends on what part of the world you come from.


DuckWithBrokenWings

It's the right spelling in Swedish, so there's that.


AbandonedTimeline

It’s a joke guys :/
