minus-square@Treczoks@lemmy.worldlinkfedilink17•1 year agoGoogle for a poem called “The Chaos”. It starts with “Dearest creature in creation”. Read it out loud without errors.
minus-square@deus@lemmy.worldlinkfedilink17•edit-21 year agoHere it is. I was going to paste the whole text in here until I realized what a monster of a poem it is.
minus-square@d00ery@lemmy.worldlinkfedilink7•1 year agoAs a native speaker, dang, that’s not easy! A few words I’m not sure on.
minus-square@Treczoks@lemmy.worldlinkfedilink3•1 year agoAs a non-native speaker, it took me a quite few trials to get things right. And it contained a shitload of surprizes. There is a reason this poem is called “The Chaos”.
minus-square@Treczoks@lemmy.worldlinkfedilink2•edit-21 year agoAnd, have you read it aloud? ;-) But it is good that you provided the link instead of the text, as the link contains a load of additional information about the poem and its author.
