Sorry but you are completely mistaken. To explain how would take a very long and off-topic post.
To provide a European analogy, we were talking about how the famous beer brewed in Llandudno is sold as Flandidno Beer in the USA, and then you jumped in to say that Florence, the English...
Peking represented the way it was pronounced until around the late 1800s/early 1900s. Mandarin and other northern Chinese languages have since undergone palatisation. The languages of southern China are more conservative and the second syllable is still pronounced with a k or g initial.

I think that people will start caring about Brexit very quickly once the virus is out of the news every day.
The end of 2020 deadline is supposed to be BJ's way of putting pressure on the EU. I would guess that if closer to the time, BJ claims we need 1 or 2 months to finalise the deal then it...
If we are still using cash in 2060, many £1 coins from 2016 will still be circulating and in usable condition.
If we had a plastic £1 note I suspect heavily used ones would only last about 1-2 years before needing to be replaced. I can't pinpoint exactly what it is about the UK polymer notes...
The concept of "words" in Japanese is different from that in European languages. Spaces are not used, but can be, for example for the benefit of children.
Anyway these are kind of just gimmicks like Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch.
The first means "South Aso...
But you were at slightly more risk of getting it than if you had stayed home.
Similarly I suppose that if 1 million people went on a drive that was not absolutely necessary, then there might be 5 accidents that wouldn't have happened. And 1 person might catch the virus from not wiping the PIN...
Many of the changes postulated here are plausible and will have long-lasting effects. I fear that one consequence will be that some areas of the UK, and some areas of other countries, will become even more hostile to outsiders, particularly those people who may appear to be associated with the...
We are currently renovating our new house, but still living in our old flat. The plan is(was) to finish in mid-April and then move in.
Everything that needed tradesmen was completed in Feburary, the remainder will be done by my wife and I. Though it seems shops like B&Q / Wickes are not...

Final post says yes. Personally I'd try to get it used in the next 1-2 years.
The Scotrail network is relatively separate from south of the border, from a passenger service perspective. But several lines and stations in England around Shrewsbury are only or mainly served by TfW.
I can't be the first person to have raised this issue so can someone point me to any...
In Adobe Reader on Windows on my computer, there is a tick box to print in grayscale on the print dialog. And if that were not possible, I could go into my printer settings and change it to print in grayscale in two different ways.
You won't be able to change the text in a PDF yourself without...
A large single donation presumably by BACS is cheaper for a charity to process than hundreds of £1 card payments or coins.
However if it isn't worth the time to claim £1, then it would seem better to just donate £1 of your own money rather than wasting time on a claim even if the TOC gets to...
This may be blue-sky thinking but I would like railcard validities to be extended by 3 months or more. My 26-30 railcard expires in April (shortly before I turn 32) and I had planned to get at least two 7-day rovers around now, which will now cost me over £50 more by the time it may be safe (or...
Is the situation not the same with Heathrow and charging up to a Z6 cap when Z1-2 cap + Z6-1 single may be cheaper? I used to split at Earls Court back in the day.
