It's Only Words!

Solving cross-word puzzles is on the way of becoming a vocabulary genius! Anyway hats off to English:it is truly a versatile language! Thanks to Beng who sent me the following post.

Consider the next sentence which is, in my opinion, an amazing sentence in English language. The person who made this sentence must be a vocabulary GENIUS.

"I do not know where family doctors acquired illegibly perplexing handwriting nevertheless, extraordinary pharmaceutical intellectuality counterbalancing indecipherability, transcendentalizes intercommunication's incomprehensibleness ".

Do you note something amazing about this sentence?

This is a sentence where the first word is of one letter long, second word of two letters, third
word is three letters long......... 8th word is 8 letters long and the 20th word is 20 letters long !!

Interesting, isn't it?

For those of you love words like I do, check out my son's favorite book called "Word Circus"
written by Richard Lederer. I bought my copy from BORDERS, Queensbay Mall Penang.

Excerpt from a review from Amazon.Com:

I never dreamt there could be a book about language that was so much fun. Richard Lederer's text truly creates a circus, complete with acrobats, clowns, animal tamers, lions, tigers--wow! Dave Morice's hilarious cartoons leap off the page and fly through the air with the greatest of ease. There must be at least 300 drawings in so many different styles that there's a surprise on every page. It's amazing that Lederer and Morice have produced a book where words and pictures interact as perfectly as they do. I've never seen this done so well before. This must be the greatest, most entertaining wordplay book of all. I hope they put together a new show soon! Encore!
