minus-squareTreczoks@lemmy.worldcakelinkfedilinkarrow-up15·2 years agoGoogle for a poem called “The Chaos”. It starts with “Dearest creature in creation”. Read it out loud without errors.
minus-squaredeus@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up15·edit-22 years agoHere it is. I was going to paste the whole text in here until I realized what a monster of a poem it is.
minus-squared00ery@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up6·2 years agoAs a native speaker, dang, that’s not easy! A few words I’m not sure on.
minus-squareTreczoks@lemmy.worldcakelinkfedilinkarrow-up3·2 years agoAs a non-native speaker, it took me a quite few trials to get things right. And it contained a shitload of surprizes. There is a reason this poem is called “The Chaos”.
