This is an unusual paragraph.I'm curious as to just how quickly you can find out what is so unusual about it.It looks so ordinary and plain that you would think nothing was wrong with it! It is highly unusual though.

Study it and think about it,but you may still not find anything odd but if you work at it a bit you might find out.Try to do so without any coaching.

Mountainsport......... GOOD LUCK AND THAT IS NOT A HINT!!!!!! XXXXXXXX

An English language teacher's answer might be: You've hit return unnecessarily after "though" in the second line, thus making it two unspaced paragraphs, not one. In addition, with one exception you've failed to space after each punctuation mark.

 

Spelling 10/10; Grammar 7/10; Structure 3/10.

Yes .. but artistic licence kinda came into play.

 

Talking of games...

 

How about we start a round of Mornington Crescent :p

I think the point is that e is the most commonly used letter in the English language, so a whole paragraph not having an e is highly unusual.

Maybe I should of stuck a smiley on the end :D

This was at one time a beloved joke in Channel 4's Countdown program, Carol Vorderman in particular often saying "would of" with mickey taking emphasis to show the falseness.

 

N.B. For the pedant, since this text is in English, my spelling of program was deliberate and correct.

All I noticed was the greengrocer's apostrophe, followed by the observation that Old Dave the man with the signature "E = mc2 give or take 1/4" was the first to get the answer :D

Should be Whatever. :p ;)

 

I'd do it as, Whatever............

 

The periods suggesting a pregnant pause :o

A friend, far better read than me, has explained to me that there is a whole literary movement concerned with such unusual pursuits. I shan't even attempt to explain but for anyone, like me, who had never heard of it previously, I attach a link which helps but this really is not essential bedtime reading!

ps I forgot to mention that the above was born from this:

 

Oulipo - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

 

But the really important bit is that it's a little-known fact that Monsieur Queneau, one of the founders of what has become known as Oulipo was absolutely fanatical about electric bikes and may have owned one even before Flecc. Not a lot of people know that......to be fair, not a lot of people care!
