@BackFromTheDud Mark Twain remarked that, if you removed every incidence of "Lo, behold, and it came to pass," from The Book Of Mormon, that book would be a pamphlet. @pasqualeberesti Doesn't all mythology get a bit like that ? "I am A, son of B, grandson of C, brother of L, and cousin to K!"! @dgar @dgar you could make a similar meme for English. The thick book would rep. English and about two sheets of paper would ep. original English words. OR you could make a meme where one thick book would rep. rules in the English language that have exceptions and one that shows no exce.....no wait that wouldn't work because the right side of the meme would be blank.๐คฆโโ๏ธ @dgar Now do one for any Aussie tome that doesn't include all the syllables we don't pronounce ... ... wait, do we have "tomes" in Australian literature? I think the longest Australian book I read at school was Seven Little Australians. ๐คฃ @berndandeweg Once I heard the joke @crazycool411 Still canโt play it. @dgar@aus.social as an Italian speaker, I love that some English speaker was bold enough to make this meme ๐ @VioB @dgar Wait, not exactly, itโs (looking at my surname) only about a 33% reduction. |
@dgar That's like "War and Peace" if you take out all the names.
