It's Monday again!
My third guest post in a series of four is published on Bridie's blog: Why outsource your transcription? Read it, like it, RT it!
That done, lets move on.
Today's post is actually from an email chain I got from friends. I collated a few trivia related to typing or English language that might be interesting to transcribers and typists. Hope you enjoy.
'Stewardesses' is the longest word typed with only the left hand
'Lollipop' is the longest word typed with your right hand.
The sentence: 'The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog' uses every letter of the alphabet.
The words 'racecar,''kayak' and 'level' are the same whether they are read left to right or right to left (palindromes).
There are only four words in the English language which end in 'dous': tremendous, horrendous, stupendous, and hazardous.
There are two words in the English language that have all five vowels in order: 'abstemious' and 'facetious.'
TYPEWRITER is the longest word that can be made using the letters only on one row of the keyboard.
The average person's left hand does 56% of the typing.
