- dataflow 5y agoI don't think the crux/insightful part of that page was the title.
- xref 5y agoYeah just a tangential observation, not knocking the article
- wruza 5y agoAlso mate, tame, meat, tea. The latter sounds especially uncreepy.
- Izkata 5y agoApparently it is a (rare?) phrase: https://www.lexico.com/en/definition/meat_tea https://www.lexico.com/en/definition/meat_tea
- simonh 5y agoBeef tea! Basically beef stock with boiling water and milk. It's fantastic on a cold day. Here's in the UK I use an OXO cube, but there's also Bovril.
- watt 5y agomaté tea is awesome
- cassianoleal 5y agoIt kills me that English has added a diacritic to the word. I agree it's awesome though, having my morning one right now. :D
- watt 5y ago(I think you are making reference to that fact I also saw in Wikipedia: "in Spanish, "maté" with the stress on the second syllable means "I killed".)
- cassianoleal 5y agoNot really, but that's also a good point! :D In both Spanish and Portuguese, the word "mate" doesn't have a diacritic, but moreover the stress syllable is "ma", not "te". So, even if a diacritic was granted, it should be "máte" rather than "maté".
- olivermarks 5y agoIf you spell team in caps there's a lower case i hidden in the A
- bigbillheck 5y agoThere's no I in 'teamwork' but there is an Ewok.
- bryanrasmussen 5y agoThere's no coffee in Team, but there is Tea.
