.... Why?
| By Y17k (Y17k) on Wednesday, October 15, 2003 - 09:23 am: Edit |
1.
WORDS make up a LANGUAGE, as NOTES make up MUSIC
2.
thicket is a group of shrubs, while grove is a group of trees
3. renumeration is a reward for labor, and a trophy is a reward for victory

But don't WEEKS make up an YEAR as well?
| By Justice (Justice) on Thursday, October 16, 2003 - 08:56 am: Edit |
Week do make up a year but instead of being stubborn and attempting your answer, try to look for the best answer. For a better bridge, consider that words are the basic components of language, and notes are the basic components of music.
