somehow I had assumed that T had already been asked since there is one in the second word, but I see now that there must be more of them!

You're right, Guinevere, that "t" in the second word was an accident.

Or at least premature. I must have put it in without thinking.

I was thinking of Latin "it smells"

...und woher stammt denn Deine poetische Signatur, Aganzir ?

Aganzir · 11-20-2007, 12:51 PM

Oh yes- I guess it might have occurred to me also had I not been lured away by the Finnish word.
Meine Signatur stammt von einem der schönsten Lieder, ich je gehört habe; Heimkehr von der deutscher Band Orplid.
