*smiles* "By Heav'n yclept Euphrosyne" is my favourite morsel of poetry, followed by "And no birds sing" and I am now sure that "Jabberwocky" was modelled on "La Belle dame sans merci". Yes, yclept is a fantastic word. -------------------- I am a mater of time and how . Deep down, you know you should have voted for Alcritas! Posts: 387 | Registered: Tuesday, March 1 2005 08:00 |

Favourite foreign words: German: Schifffahrt (gotta love the spelling reform) Pikkoloflöte quergegenüber daß anything that has a ß in it Latin: peto (just because when it means "attack" you can facetiously translate it as "seek", and when it means "seek" you can facetiously translate it as "attack" and it's even funnier) "gavisus sum" venustus Old English: æglæca anything that has an æ in it -------------------- A C, an E-flat, and a G walk into the Tower of the Magi.

Finnally: In Tria'Mojae <------ Is that the correct spelling in English? Oh well it's not important: Funjazanteir Nakalemakoxz I know my Tria'Mojae is not very good but, I at least know these words and can pronounce them my favorite words in Tria'Mojae that I can't pronounce: Xaulauxae Yiyilintama and of course: Buyifli'kiunajmahltal'ak :confused: <----- A friend tells me that is one of very few "real" Tria'Mojae words that is almost impossible to use in a gramtically correct sentance. Sorry I can't figure out how to get accents on these, English keyboards. All this in accordance witht the prophecy. -------------------- "My Mazaradi goes 185 They Took my License Now I don’t drive But I got me a limo And I sit in the back Lock all the doors In case I’m attacked.” Posts: 54 | Registered: Wednesday, April 12 2006 07:00 |

Originally by lord llama: quote:Fluffy kitten. Kitten. Edit: And it's monkey, not monky. Dikiyoba is willing to overlook most mistakes, but not one misspelling one's favorite words.
