 OLD MAN OF THE MOUNTAIN
Daniel Webster once said,
"Men hang out their signs indicative
of their respective trades;
shoemakers hang out a gigantic shoe;
jewelers a monster watch, and
the dentist hangs out a gold tooth; but
up in the mountains of New Hampshire ,
God Almighty has hung out a sign
to show that there He makes men."
--N.B. Perkins, c.1996

Le autor era Bernard Shaw. Ille habeva problemas con le
orthographia
anglese e inventava pro isto su proprie alphabete. Ubique ille
diceva que
le ortographia de un lingua debe esser extra-stupide si le
parola _fish_
pote esser scribite _ghoti_ - il non se tracta nunc de parola
pro un
bastonada in sinhala :-) - a saper gh = f in laugh, o  = i in
women, e ti =
sh in (pro exemplo) station. Io ha oblidate le parola actual pro
_ti_.

Cata ligua ha tal stupiditates. In svedese mi preferite objecto
de odio es
le varie manieras scriber le sono j. Qual svedophono pote
correctemente
scriber: fiskjusen jöt en ögonblicklig död medan jäknen jöt
tennsoldater.

Il non es persmittite usar un dictionario durante le solution,
solo pro
controlo!

Jotamente
