 When I was reading Marial of Redwall, I noticed the word Terramort(How couldn't you?!). The root word Terra, is Spanish for Land or Earth, while the suffix -mort is death. Hence, Terramort is the Land of Death! Funny isn't it. The worf games Jacques comes up with! Anymore anyone would like to add?

who weighed less than all of us.
He was really fast
And was known now and the past
There was a squirell name Pessulus
who weighed less than all of us!"

 First of all, I do have a life!
Second of all, I was doing a suffix-preffix thing in English and when I was reading, it popped up into my head that it meant that!
And third of all, you're just jelous that you didn't come up with it! <_< humph!

 Actually, I already knew that just from looking at it.
*grin*
I took 2 semesters of Latin in my freshman and sophomore years of HS...

I was 14 when I took my second section of Latin.... and I wasn't making commentary on anything... more like backing you up to Dead Eye.

I also started speaking some French, German, and Spanish around the same time I started speaking English. My dad's a foreign language professor. *shrug*
