I woke up this morning thinking of the curious English Word "to walk".
I was very interested to learn more about this Word, so when I got to my Creative Writing Class, I asked the teacher about it.
I was disappointed with his reply though because he said it was a silly question and suggested I look in a dictionary.
I think he was similar to some people who respond to my posts in non-constructive ways on this site.
But I am the kind of Person who doesn't give into demotivators and they only make me try harder to Contribute. I believe I can Contribute to this site, and I hope people will read my posts and respond, especially Damian From Edinburgh and Uriel.
I still hope to get a reply from Uriel about Irish sexuality.
But back to "walk". After the teacher shuned me I decided to do some research. I enjoy researching.
I found this at Wikipedia:
Walking (also called ambulation) is the main form of animal locomotion on land, distinguished from running and crawling.[1][2] When carried out in shallow waters, it is usually described as wading and when performed over a steeply rising object or an obstacle it becomes scrambling or climbing. The word walk is descended from the Old English wealcan "to roll".
A definition:
walk, walking
the act of traveling by foot; "walking is a healthy form of exercise"
I thought that was interesting. I hope this thread will generate a lot of Discussion.
It is interesting that "walk" rhymes with "talk" which is a word I heard used last night and seemed fascinating at the time. I met with some friends from Poland, the same ones who I gave a gift consisting of Tea that wasn't appreciated.
But the word "talk" is very curious. Apparently , it is used in Ireland also.
My Polish friends and I "talked". I thought that was interesting.
