No-one guessed what the spelling was, so I'll extend it unnecessarily. The thing that you have to guess is what Ghoughpteighbteau tchoghs spells. Ghoughpteighbteau tchoghs are rather common... That's a hint... I also did something today that was almost interesting, but I'll talk about it later.

Annoying game

Instead of posting a post that's really boring, I'll run another annoying guessing game. Here it is: Without looking it up, can any of you guess what Ghoughpteighbteau tchoghs spells? It does spell a real thing.

I don't have anything interesting to say... I guess that I'll think of something... Yesterday I walked to a museum of contemporary art, and there a special exhibit was a spraying of water and strong lights which only came on at night so the spectrum slicing that occurs when sunlight gleams through a thin mist of water could be seen at night. Is that any interesting? I had absolutely nothing that was mildly captivating to report... I wonder what would happen if I didn't do my blog posts at 11:59 all the time...

Ancient punctuation

I still have nothing to say today! Now I'll have to think of something useless... Some monks in the 12th century used punctuation symbols that nowadays are entirely unheard of, such as the following: the positura, a small mark that looks slightly like 7, which notified the end of a chapter or page; a mark of an unknown name that looked like a gallows (oddly enough, just one of them), which alerted to the beginning of a paragraph before the indent was invented; and the suspensiva, a mark that looks very similar to /, which indicated a very slight pause when reading aloud. Monks tend to do odd things... So did anyone in the 12th century, really, so I probably am very misdirected in blaming them.

Ever realized how much placing of commas can change the meaning of an entire sentence? You probably have, so you might as well not bother reading this post. I still find it very neat that the difference between 'Ein accused Magg lost the DNA evidence' and 'Ein, accused Magg, lost the DNA evidence'. Is , and ,. Also, you should never talk about commas by writing them as ,s.

No-one understood my last blog post! I might have overdone it. You're supposed to reverse it backwards and then translate it from spanish to get the post that I wrote. Go do that then comment!
