Well, the way we write it, it starts with an E and ends with an A
That's all

As Mart already said, "I guess this only applies to the English language" so where are you going with it?

You are right. The only excuse I have is that I was still on page 1 when sending my reply. I had not seen that there were 2 more replies...

Well even in English they don't all start and end with an A

How Many Continents Are There?
Depending on how you count them, there are anywhere from 4 to 7 continents.
 

Quote:

Since geography is defined by local convention, there are several conceptions as to which landmasses qualify as continents, and which might be termed supercontinents (e.g. Africa-Eurasia), microcontinents (e.g. Madagascar or New Zealand), or subcontinents (e.g. South Asia). Seven landmasses and their associated islands are commonly reckoned as continents, but these may be consolidated. For example, North and South America are often considered a single continent, and Asia is often united with Europe. Ignoring cases where Antarctica is omitted, or where Australasia or Oceania are used in place of Australia, there are half a dozen traditions for naming the continents.

DOC,
Read again... nobody said they all start and end with A, only that they end with the same letter they start with.

Just my old age playing tricks on me. You're correct, but I saw Mart's post on the A deal and simply thought that was the post.

Oh well now everyone can read up on it more if they like.

I'd be very suprised if it worked in every language. Then it would definately be a conspiracy. (imagine the asian languages).

Another Fact: What is called a "French kiss" in the English speaking world is known as an "English kiss" in France.
