It's true through the US, though in England pony (poni) and bologna (bolognë) don't rhyme (or only roughly).

Funny Phrases: Whet Your Appetite[/size]

Which is funny is that in French, we use the expression "aiguiser l'appétit" and "aiguiser" is used to sharpen a knife/tool.
The English language also used "to whet" for knives/tools but this meaning is rather archaic.

Gérard it's very complicated and I don't understand everything either.gerardM a écrit:

For instance I didn't know that a comma splice is the use of a comma to join two independent clauses
