Breaking news: XKCD rajzocskán láttam egy feliratot, amit nem értettem és utána kellett néznem: https://xkcd.com/2319/

Így mondta Abraam Lincoln azt, hogy 87: 4 score and 7

Mi ez a score? https://www.etymonline.com/word/score

"late Old English scoru "twenty," from Old Norse skor "mark, notch, incision; a rift in rock," also, in Icelandic, "twenty," from Proto-Germanic *skur-, from PIE root *sker- (1) "to cut.""

"The connecting notion probably is counting large numbers (of sheep, etc.) with a notch in a stick for each 20. "

Érdekes, nem?
