	lilian canale จำนวนข้อความ: 14972	"When the sabre is mouldy, the plough is gleaming, the jail is empty, the barn is full, the stairs of the Temple are worn out, the stairs to the Court are full of weeds and finally, when the doctor walks (goes on foot), the baker rides a horse and the man of letters drives a car (goes by car), the nation is well ruled (governed)"

	lilian canale จำนวนข้อความ: 14972	Oh, no! I'm sorry for the misspelling it's "sabre."

	Aneta B. จำนวนข้อความ: 4487	One more question if you don't mind, Lilly... mohoso - moudly It has three different meanings, so You meant: "boring", "out-of-date" or "rotten"?

	lilian canale จำนวนข้อความ: 14972	It's "mouldy" not "moudly". This time the misspelling is yours

	Aneta B. จำนวนข้อความ: 4487	Hehe, so now we're square... But, I thought just about "mouldy" and still don't know which of the three meanings I should consider... For me "out-of-date" would be here the best...

	lilian canale จำนวนข้อความ: 14972	"Mouldy" means: 1. covered with mould 2. stale or musty, especially from age or lack of use. Something like this wall
