1 Gaelic has no words for Yes or No. 2 The word "bankrupt" comes from the Italian "banca rotta" which means broken bench...in the late Middle Ages, when banking was evolving in Italy, transactions were conducted in open air markets. When a banker became insolvent, his bench was broken up. 3 The phrase "stiff upper lip" is actually American in origin, while "homicide" is first found in Shakespeare. 4 There is a phrase describing that falling sensation you sometimes get just as you're falling asleep...it's called a "myoclonic jerk". 5 In French "to be bored to death" translates as "etre de Birmingham", literally "to be from Birmingham". 6 The word "nice" was first coined in 1290, and meant stupid or foolish. |

That was a recurring dream/feeling of mine as a child- led to a healthy fear of heights. |
