I'm sure you get better results though. But again... passtime activity....
Sure it's a pastime activity but to first order for me. Optimizing the process using the tools at my disposal is also pastime for me but to second order.

Not to worry. I haven't played chess since I was a teenager. I never enjoyed being pressed to think while some clock is ticking.

I hate it when they look easy but aren't. I'm of course excused by my limited vocabulary and English being my second language, but still. :(

I accidentally used a used word, i.e. forgot to look it up before I guessed. That turned out to be an advantage. However, a quick check on my translation engine showed, that the solution exists in Danish, too, only with three letters more in the official version. Btw., same as here.

I answer only to use this word I just learned: "chucklesome" :)

And I learned my second Danish word when I used my translator yesterday: blå. The first one was tak. My new hypothesis: all Danish words have 3 letters. I plan to prove it by induction :biggrin:

You have any trouble finding the 'å'? :)

EDIT:

BTW: If you can say "tak" in Danish you can use it in Norway and Sweden too. It's the same word. I kinda "collect" ways to say thanks. "obrigrado" (Portuguese), "chukran" (Arabic), "spasiba" (Russian, pronounced "spasibo", I had Russian in highschool but with around 80% truancy so I "almost" know the Cyrillic alphabet. Apropos chucklesome: I remember that "стол", pronounced "stol", means "table" only because "stol" in Danish means chair). Talk about waste of grey matter....

Not really. I thought I had it on the keyboard but it only generates degrees. I'm also missing the cédille. But I simply use Wikipedia for the correct spelling. I just struggle with Ångström because I cannot remember whether it is an 'A' or an 'Å' and whether it is an 'ö' or an 'ø'. But I think the Swedish do not use 'ø' IIRC.

If I had to use it more often then I would learn the ASCII code number. But until then, Wikipedia must do.

No they use the diacritical "umlaut" (?) The o with the two dots. Anyway you can use Alt-codes for all those weird characters. They're all listed on wiki.

EDIT: Oh, that's what you meant by ASCII code. nvm.
