English and american language are the most rich of words, and are full of this expressions, and a "not english" like me needs time to go on in the translation.

It's not quite clear whether you are making a complaint, or writing a thank-you note for the educational opportunity. But anyway, in this the 21st century, the English language is IT, and you just have to accept this fact and work with it. The sooner you learn all these variegated words and strange colloquial expressions, the better for you; you should be grateful for the chance to practice that this list provides.

The story may be apocryphal but I like it anyway. The story goes that they had produced such a programme and it seemed to work, so they put it out for others to test. The idea was that you typed in a phrase in English, specified another language, and then it translated it into that language, and then translated its translation back into English (are you with me so far?) The idea was that the result would be as near as possible to the original. Some bright spark gave it the phrase "Out of sight; out of mind" to work with.

There's a story about an early attempt to use computers to translate between human languages. The story may be apocryphal but I like it anyway. The story goes that they had produced such a programme and it seemed to work, so they put it out for others to test. The idea was that you typed in a phrase in English, specified another language, and then it translated it into that language, and then translated its translation back into English (are you with me so far?) The idea was that the result would be as near as possible to the original. Some bright spark gave it the phrase "Out of sight; out of mind" to work with. (For others not used to English expressions this means that you forget about things that you don't see day-to-day). The computer did its thing and came back with "invisible idiot". Conclusion: computers don't cope well with human languages.

Ear, but earn and wear and tear Do not rhyme with here but ere. Seven is right, but so is even, Hyphen, roughen, nephew Stephen, Monkey, donkey, Turk and jerk, Ask, grasp, wasp, and cork and work. Pronunciation-think of Psyche! Is a paling stout and spikey? Won't it make you lose your wits, Writing groats and saying grits? It's a dark abyss or tunnel: Strewn with stones, stowed, solace, gunwale, Islington and Isle of Wight, Housewife, verdict and indict. Finally, which rhymes with enough? Though, through, plough, or dough, or cough? Hiccough has the sound of cup. My advice is to give up.

I didn't realize it was that old and certainly found I had to gguess at some of the pronunciations from the context. Here's another set: Can you read these correctly ... the first time? 1) The bandage was wound around the wound. 2) The farm was used to produce produce. 3) The landfill was so full, they had to refuse more refuse. 4) Please polish the Polish furniture. 5) He could be in the lead if he would get the lead out. 6) The soldier chose to desert his dessert in the desert. 7) Since there is no time like the present, it is time to present the present. 8) A bass was painted on the head of the bass drum. 9) When shot at, the dove dove into the bushes. 10) I did not object to the object. 11) The insurance was invalid for the invalid. 12) There was a row among the oarsmen about how to row. 13) They were too close to the door to close it. 14) The buck does strange antics when does are around. 15) A seamstress and a sewer fell down into a sewer line. 16) To help with planting, the farmer taught his sow to sow. 17) The wind was too strong for us to wind the sail. 18) I shed a tear upon seeing the tear in the painting. 19) I had to subject the subject to a series of tests. 20) I need to intimate this to my most intimate friend? Let's face it - English is a crazy language. There is no egg in eggplant, no ham in hamburger; neither apple nor pine in pineapple English muffins were not invented in England nor French fries in France. Sweetmeats are candies, while sweetbreads, which aren't sweet, are meat. We take English for granted. But if we explore its paradoxes, we find that quicksand can work slowly, boxing rings are square, and a guinea pig is neither from Guinea nor is it a pig. And why is it that writers write but fingers don't fing, grocers don't groce and hammers don't ham? If the plural of tooth is teeth, why isn't the plural of booth, beeth? One goose, 2 geese. So one moose, 2 meese? One index, 2 indices? Is it not crazy that you can make amends, but not one amend? If you have a bunch of odds and ends and get rid of all but one of them, what do you call it? If teachers taught, why didn't preachers praught? If a vegetarian eats vegetables, what does a humanitarian eat? Sometimes I think the first 'teachers of the language' should have been committed to an asylum for the verbally insane. How is it that people recite a play and play at a recital; ship by truck and send cargo by ship; have noses that run and feet that smell?? How can a slim chance and a fat chance be the same, while a wise man and a wise guy are opposites? You have to marvel at the unique lunacy of a language in which your house can burn up as it burns down; you fill in a form by filling it out and an alarm goes off by going on. English was invented by people, not computers, and reflects the creativity of the human race, which, of course, is not a race at all.This is why.. when the stars are out, they are visible, but when the lights are out, they are invisible.

There is an advert inside for a trip to St Helena, led by a leading South African conservationist, to "discover the birds of St Helena". Included in the price is "return sea passage on board the unique RMS St Helena". Sounds great. Having visited the island once I would love to return to see what I missed the first time. The advert is attractive and inviting and includes the departure date of the RMS. 10th June 2007. I'm reading this in October 2007! The first reaction of folk I've shown this to is to laugh and then make comments as to the intelligence of the people advertising. This reflects on the island and the population and I take this personally. I have an affiliation and affection for the island and it's people and the powers that be who presented this advert should stop and reflect on what they have done, because this is not the first time the advert has been published with an incorrect date. So if anyone knows who to contact about this please let me know. I've got to add that there is a lot of tongue in cheek with this comment but a little bit of seriousness as well.

St.Helena - she is definitely not an ORDINARY cargo ship -= she is an EXTRAORDINARY semi- cargo ship - half for the container cargo and the other half for the human cargo - carrying about 120 when full. I have recently returned from my second voyage on her - from Capetown to St. H. and returrn - and loved every minute of it - such wonderful staff, excellent food, comfortable cabins, a well stocked library - well! I could go on ad lib ! and if you want it - never a dull moment!Go into the website - www.rms.st-helena - the sailing schedules up to the end of 2008 are printed there, from Portland to Capetown via Ascension and St. Helena of course. Go for it - you won't forget anything about the voyage and the island of course. best of luck - Juliet.

I am not sure where to go with my query or which St Helena site to send it to. My Great, Great grandfather John Francis YOUNG was from St Helena Island, South Atlantic. I am guessing that his middle name comes from his mother's maiden name. This is not confirmed but I believe that John's father was Joseph YOUNG born about 1799, and his mother was Sarah FRANCIS. John Francis YOUNG was born on 7 September 1835 St Helena Island, South Atlantic. He was baptised at the Church of England St Helena Island on 20 October 1835. It is speculated that John jumped ship and stayed in Australia. This is not confirmed, as we are really unsure as to how he came to Australia. John, who was literature and wrote with a stylish hand married when he was 40years in Australia to 17-year-old Kathleen Nolan on 21 September 1880 at the St Pauls Church of England, in Sandhurst, Victoria, Australia. Witnesses to the marriage were John & Charlotte Gabriel. John went to the goldfields in Victoria. He worked as a Miner, pyrites burner and Farmer. He lived and died at Jackass Flat, Victoria, Australia. He died on 24 February 1896 of peritonitis. Dr J Thom attended him on his deathbed.
