Greetings,

In 1969 the Frenchman George Perec wrote a full length detective novel, La Disparition, in which the letter 'e' does not appear at all. It has been translated into English by Gilbert Adair. The obvious translation for the title would be 'The Disappearance', but since that contains three 'e's Adair chose to call it A Void.

More than 5,000 years ago, the Chinese discovered how to make silk from silkworm cocoons. For about 3,000 years, the Chinese kept this discovery a secret. Because poor people could not afford real silk, they tried to make other cloth look silky. Women would beat on cotton with sticks to soften the fibers. Then they rubbed it against a big stone to make it shiny. The shiny cotton was called "chintz." Because chintz was a cheaper copy of silk, calling something "chintzy" means it is cheap and not of good quality.

Cleopatra was no older than 18 when she became the queen of Egypt. Despite her glamorous image today, she is depicted on ancient coins with a long hooked nose and masculine features. Yet she was a very seductive woman. It was reported that she had a lovely singing voice, exuded great charm, and was very intelligent. She spoke nine languages (she was the first Ptolemy pharaoh who could actually speak Egyptian) and was considered a shrewd politician.

A snail can sleep for three years.
so my snail is still actually alive :eek:

another evil word besides that hippoflakjdflakjflsdkfjlskjdflsjfsfjalphobia (my apoligies if thats spelled wrong) is "lisp" can a person with a lisp actually say the word "lisp" ?

Opinion backed up with some truth: If you've an english accent, you're already cool :shade:

If you've an american accent..you're considered to be stuck up and fat (according to abd'majid)

Fact: The word "Christian" appears only three times in the Bible: Acts 11:26; 26:28; 1 Peter 4:16.

touche

did you know that touche generates from fencing?

touched [French] In fencing, a touch of a sword on the opponent's body is worth a point. Thus, touché has come to mean a score or a point, often used figuratively in verbal fencing and spoken by the person against whom the point was scored. Merely saying touch is wrong since the correct term would be touched. However, even touched is wrong when the meaning is you win.
