I'm weird in that I like etymologies. "Scofflaw" has a weird one, which makes it cool to me. How many words have won contests?

It's not wierd. They're pretty neat. Words are great. Language is such a wonderful thing. I should really go back to school and get an English degree or learn a foreign language.

Speaking of being a Monophone, if you're interested in learning some Japanese, check this site out and download one of their games! They rock!

I have a theory that the more difficult a language you speak (linguists call certain languages more difficult than others), the more of your brain you use, so the more intelligent you are.

I have no evidence to back it up, though.

Really? Wow!

Well, it'd lead to the conclusion that the people in certain countries are more intelligent than in other countries. There are stereotypes to this effect, but I don't think any of the stereotypes enforce the theory. Moreover, a stereotype means nothing.

Are the Koreans more intelligent than the Spaniards? I think the theory leads to some conclusions that just aren't true.
