Mon neveu est un peu pleurnichard ce soir, mais c'est parce qu'il est très fatigué // My nephew is a bit whiny tonight, but it's because he is very tired.

Another phrase from Transparent Language. I am reasonably sure that neveu (nephew) in question was meant to be a kid, possibly a baby, but somehow an image of a marathon runner immediately after a race popped into my head.
I can't even explain why - all the runners known to me are decidedly cheerful, non-whiny bunch. And tend to feel relieved, and not a bit whiny, after a marathon.
Go figure.
Timur tells me his number is "37".
