you can stop tops
you can revere a river
you can part the trap
there are many things you could do with your language
I'm sure that English isn't as fun as some
but I don't know any others to compare with
so...
so you sew
sew what?
sew sewers?
so's she sewing sewers
or suing sewers
or sewing suers
sewers stink
stinkers sew and then they sue.
why does 'er' change the way you pronounce 'sew'?
or not, depending
if you say a word over and over it doesn't feel like a word anymore
Donald Trump did it recently with 'China'
"China," he said
"China, China, China, China
China, China, China.."
and so on, only each 'China' was inflected differently
which is funny because people in China who speak Mandarin (960 million)
inflect same words differently, too.
Is it striped, or stri-ped?
Is it often, or of-ten?
Is it all-mond, or ahmond?
Is it salmon or sal-mon?
Why do you pronounce the first 'L' in 'salmonella?
Is it despicable, or de-thpicable?
We may never know but it's fun to think about.
