<DIV><FONT face=Calibri>Hi Nick,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Calibri></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Calibri>I got this list about the extraordinary English language
from an Australian friend.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Calibri>English is a most fascinating language and a lot of fun.
It lends itself to all</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Calibri>kinds of puns and jokes based on homonyms and
homographs:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Calibri></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Calibri>Can you, as a native speaker of English, respond with a
couple good ones ?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Calibri></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Calibri>My mother tongue is German. To get an entertaining look
at it, I recommend</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Calibri>that you read Mark Twain's article "The Awful German
language":</FONT></DIV>
