THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE
A FEW FACTS ABOUT …
The sentence: "The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog" uses every letter of the alphabet.
There are two words in the English language that have all five vowels in order: "abstemious" and "facetious."
There are only four words in the English language which end in "-dous": tremendous, horrendous, stupendous, and hazardous.
The words 'race car,' 'kayak' and 'level' are palindromes. They read the same whether you read them left to right or right to left.
No word in the English language rhymes with month, orange, silver, or purple.
TYPEWRITER is the longest word that can be made using the letters only on one row of the keyboard.
"Stewardesses" is the longest word typed with only the left hand and "lollipop" with your right.
Now … you know everything !!! ;)
But DO YOU NEED to learn all these words/vocabulary.
At this point DO YOU REALLY need to use them??
This question will help you to decide
what is worth keeping and assimilating.
We will talk about it in class
