(Happy's is better) My defacto language type "did you know?" has for years been the buffallo one... Buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo. That's a gramatically correct sentence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Fish 10750 Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 I like the "typewriter is the longest word you can type using just the top row of keys on a standard qwerty keyboard" I don't buy the explanation that they arranged the letter this way to make it easy for typewriter salesmen to display the practicality of the device. I'd have thought anything on the centre row, at either end would be easier? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They get half a place at the World Cup. How do you define a continent anyway? I mean, how are Europe and Asia seperate continents? It makes no sense.

Jan 0 Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 Not in English speaking schools it isn't They are generally identified by convention rather than any strict criteria, with seven regions commonly regarded as continents—they are (from largest in size to smallest): Asia, Africa, North America, South America, Antarctica, Europe, and Australia. Conventionally, "continents are understood to be large, continuous, discrete masses of land, ideally separated by expanses of water." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
