enough.... where does the 'f' sound come from huh.gif


"I" before "e" except after "c" except when sounding like "a" as in "neighbor" except in the word "science"...

plural of "goose" is "geese" but the plural of "mongoose" is "mongooses"

people from the Philippines are called Filipino (one p and with an "F" huh.gif )

"I am going to polish the Polish lamp".... notice that if I don't capitalize the second "polish" it won't make any sense.

the words "Through" "Trough" and "Though" all end with the same 4 letters but neither rhyme with any of the others

there are 3 distinct, and unconnected (as far as I know) definitions of the word "counter"

counter as in counter-attack. Counter as in a person who counts, or an object used to count things. And Counter as in a kitchen counter. (that's what it's called in America, maybe not so elsewhere)

"wound the bandage around the wound" translation----> "wrap the bandage around the injury"



feel free to comment or add something wink.gif
