   In my mother language Heroin(e) is the name of a dangerous narcotic, a drug, no girl would like to be called a “Heroine” here, but on the other side also almost nobody is playing baseball here.

   Could it be the (marking) ring many birds wear at one of their leg? Did not know that “retainer” is the proper word for that.

   “The quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog” is NOT the shortest English sentence containing ALL letters of the alphabet, because the quoted sentence DOES NOT contain the letter “s”. Therefore the correct sentence is “The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog”. jumps, not jumped. This sentence was used in testing old mechanical teletype machines to proof that their mechanics was ok for all the letters. It is easy to remember.

   English is not my motherlanguage, but Oxford’s University Press “The Advanced Learners Dictionary Of Current English (which should include American)” gives the difinition of “aisle” as ….2.(USA) passageway between any rows of seats (e.g. in the theatre or railway coach); corridor in a railway train . That applies so well to school classrooms that it must be the right word. At least I now know positively how “aisle” is properly pronounced. Thanks for the education, Snoopy!
