Ripple 0 #17 June 30, 2005 Quote Quote 12. "I am" is the shortest complete sentence in the English language. No. 'No' is not a sentence. A sentence is a grammatical unit that is syntactically independent and has a subject that is expressed or, as in imperative sentences, understood and a predicate that contains at least one finite verb.

mr2mk1g 10 #19 June 30, 2005 Quote 8. Each king in a deck of playing cards represents a king from history: Spades - King David, Hearts - Charlemagne, Clubs -Alexander the Great, Diamonds - Julius Caesar Caesar was not a King - he was named Dictator Perpetuus and was an Emperor but refused to be called "King" or even receive a Diadem which was the Roman symbol of monarchy. Although I suppose you could argue he was effectively a King in everything but title. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

champu 1 #24 June 30, 2005 Quote 9. 111,111,111 x 111,111,111 = 12,345,678,987,654,321 Welcome to the wonderful world of digital signal processing. Quote "One hundred and one" surely... You don't write "and" in that situation though. "And" is like a decimal point. (i.e. 157.9 = One Hundred Fifty-Seven and Nine Tenths) Quote "I do" is the longest sentence. "now that's funny right there, I don't care who ya are." Quote Though the troops in Baghdad did receive decks with Suddam Hussein as the King of Spades, and other notable Iraqis as the other royals. (so I hear) I don't know if decks were actually made, but Saddam was the Ace of Spades, rather than the king. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
