I looked it up for Toy Story 2. Then I had to know. "Eating Shomos!"

We have them here in Canadia too. So they're at least a North American thing.Kovvy wrote:Are s'mores just an American thing?

Well, I just learned something. And it wasn't just how to correct your terrible formatting.Roman Cilicia wrote: (Btw this thread title is an example of http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hendiadys)

Re: Strange But Tasty
I didn't know what a hendiadys was either. Now I do, and now I know that this thread title is not one, since it is a noun-conjunction-adjective and this thread title is adjective-conjunction-adjective.

Re: Strange But Tasty
What are you talking about? 'Strange' clearly doubles here as a noun. It's a type of unusual delicacy. Though, from what I read it doesn't seem to be limited to just noun plus adjective, so he's still right either way. Try and understand.

Re: Strange But Tasty
The only definition I know of 'strange' as a noun is when you are talking about quarks. I don't see how strange doubles as a now, I fail in understanding that.Sahan wrote:What are you talking about?

I misunderstood the other part though. It is the conjunction of two words that replaces the use of an adjective and noun. The two words don't have to be an adjective and noun as I originally said though.

Re: Strange But Tasty
Yeah okay, I was making things up about strange being a noun. It was a case of trying to be stupid and funny, realising it was just stupid, and then not bothering to do anything about it. Also, the phrase 'Try and understand' was just another example of a Hendiadys.

Strange can be a noun: "I'm gonna go out and get me some strange".

And then I punched him BAM! right in the strange.
Police said they spent some time working out if they could charge the man with being armed with a weapon, as technically he was armed with part of a fish.
