This is coming from the people group that use “mau” as the word for cat.
Still the first scientific report, alphabetically.
It’s a sign of an advanced civilization when they reserve such short words for only the most apropos definitions.
It’s a form of compression. Shortest words are used most often, or in an emergency.
Such as 0118, 999, 881, 999, 119, 725…3
192 used to be directory services but they changed it to 118, and then a bunch of copy cats used 118 as a prefix for all kinds of unofficial stuff. Plus 999 and 112 in the UK are still very iffy depending on where you are.
When I was a kid, I used to dial 911 all the time. Because all you’d get was a recording.
“The 9 1 1 emergency number is not in effect in the area where you are. If this is an actual emergency please hang up and dial your local emergency responder.”
I love how they are not even considering redirecting to the correct number. Nope, you’ve got to learn the culture or die.
Well, I don’t think they had the technology to do that back then. We had a party line at the time. And a phone with a rotary dial. I’m kinda old.
I believe a bunch of countries do reroute 911 to the correct code if it’s dialed today.
Lovely castle, smells of elderberries.
My mother smelled of elderberries.
I thought your mother was a hamster.
It’s a brave new world.
She can do both, don’t be speciesist.
Was that before or after she threw away all of the M&Ms with Ws on them?
I miss her too, son.
The Egyptians most certainly didn’t use the Latin alphabet 5000 years ago, in fact noone used the Latin alphabet until more than 2000 years later. So how on earth do you come up with the transcription “aaa” and is it supposed to be pronounced a-a-a or what?
Sir. This is a meme.
can I get a Son of the Baconator with fries and a chocolate frosty?
What?
No, no. It’s Whaa. Try it again.
