RE: OT RE: What stands for i in Oracle 8i

The order is different in Japanese as well, although I'm blown if I can remember the correct one.

This is definitely OT, but the Egyptians used to omit vowels from words, perhaps because they thought vowels were breath.

The vowels happen to be... yi ah o ou w e h

In French, a e I o u - the order is scrambled --> I a o u e

Yahweh.

Interesting, no?

        You're sure ?

        How about 'd*mn' or 'm*cr*s*ft' ?     
        No vowels there.  :-)
        (there are other words, but they are unprintable on a nice,
friendly,
        family-orientated list like this one.)


        OK, sorry about that. Going back to work.


        Greetings,
        Frank
