I posted a rar file together with the pictures and forgot an index.
Sorry for the rar file, indices coming soon.
English is my native language - in fact, my only language! - and even
though I know that the proper word IS "indices" I have still always
preferred "indexes". There are a lot of words in the English
language, especially those with their roots in the Latin or French,
that have unusual plural forms.
You're very right there.
Even English and American is not the same.
In America you write "color", in English "colour".
An American says "Me too", an Englishman would say "So am I", ore "So do I".
The history of language is very interesting.
My native language is "Fries", not Dutch, and maybe there are only half a
million people speaking "Fries".
But building a sentence in Fries and English is the same and differs from
Dutch.
