- Use NSFW marking accordingly
Laittakaa meemejä tänne.
- Odota ainakin 2 kuukautta ennen meemin postaamista uudelleen

I think both the Greek one and this one are more accurately turbines, not engines right? Dunno how big of a difference that makes though.
We say “jet engine” though and that’s a turbine…
That's true. Although there's no piston jet engine to confuse it with whereas there is a steam engine and steam turbine that need distinguishing between.
