Scots wha hae! Whit think ye?
Is it time for the Scots to stop saying 'shite' and start saying 'shicht' instead? night - nicht, light - licht, right - richt etc. Maybe the English could put the 'gh' back in and it would make more sense: shite - shight - shicht.
3 AnswersLanguages1 decade agoArabic Inscription - can anyone help?
I asked this question three years ago and no one could help, but ever hopeful, I'm repeating my question.
I have been told that above the entrance to the University of Cairo is written, "Chemistry is important, Allah is more important."

3 AnswersLanguages1 decade agoWhy are there so few Esperanto speakers who are members of the UEA?
I surveyed the membership totals of each country a few days ago and was shocked to find that they added up to not much more than a few thousand. I understand the financial problems many have, especially in underdeveloped countries and eastern Europe, but I wonder why Esperanto speakers in the relatively affluent West don't sign up to promote a language which we know works even if it isn't perfect.

1 AnswerLanguages1 decade agoCan anyone give me any tips based on personal experience for doing the pilgrimage to Compostela on foot?
I have a few good websites but a few more wouldn't go amiss either. What I'm really after though, are the minutiae that can only come from having done the thing in person.
Thanks in advance for any help or advice offered!
