That was indeed very annoying when I was in the USA being used to selecting the bills by color and form. And the permanent necessity to squint while driving because all signs were a long text instead of symbols that could be checked by a short glimpse.

Spanish has a word for two people with the same ( first) name: ' Tocayos'. Seems a bit contrived .fresh_42 said:Why does English use a word for such a big thing as antlers, which sounds like tiny little eusocial formicidae aka insects?
The same reason that the three syllable full-sized term "World Wide Web" is shorter than its nine syllable acronym "Double-you double-you double-you.".fresh_42 said:Why does English use a word for such a big thing as antlers, which sounds like tiny little eusocial formicidae aka insects?
A mix of Germanic and Latin roots, I think. So it's your fault...fresh_42 said:Why does English use a word for such a big thing as antlers, which sounds like tiny little eusocial formicidae aka insects?
