.035 - it's strange facts time with Cap'n Kirk

Did you know, that a group of unicorns is called a blessing? And that a group of ravens is called a murder?

Did you dream that first one? Who invents a plural noun for a mythical creature?

I found it in a book.

You don't know unicorns aren't real.

Yes, okay, I'm sure that somebody here has an incredibly lame world that is full of unicorns.

...

Why were you reading about unicorns?

I did know that. Rather peculiar when they come at the same time. Linguistically, anyhow.

Yes, I did.

[Doesn't everyone? Know that? And frequently talk about groups of unicorns? No? George may be on the wrong boat...]

[identity profile] captain-jtkirk.livejournal.com 2011-05-14 01:36 am (UTC)(link)
And that a group of toads is a knot?

[identity profile] 19centconstable.livejournal.com 2011-05-14 01:43 am (UTC)(link)
That I didn't know. I can't say I'd think a group of toads would be very pleasant.

Really? Never heard that before.

People with unicorns, I'd say.

And how many people is that, exactly?

I always heard it was an unkindness of ravens.

[identity profile] captain-jtkirk.livejournal.com 2011-05-14 06:12 pm (UTC)(link)
Perhaps there are multiple names?

[identity profile] sepfield.livejournal.com 2011-05-14 09:30 pm (UTC)(link)
Perhaps. I know crows can be a murder or a storytelling. I don't see why ravens can't have multiple names as well.

Yes, a murder of crows and an unkindness of ravens.

Oh, it looks as though someone has beaten me to it.

Here to outsmart you. :P

[identity profile] allofthese.livejournal.com 2011-05-15 09:19 pm (UTC)(link)
It's murder of crows. A group of ravens are called unkindness.

Unicorns don't exist.

[identity profile] allofthese.livejournal.com 2011-05-20 11:26 pm (UTC)(link)
Why don't we go ask Santa Claus, the Tooth Fairy or the Easter Bunny then.

Oh wait...
