So February is sadly over, and with it ends Favorite Thing February. But it also means the start of a new challenge. MAGICAL MARCH!
Magical March is something like Favorite Thing February, but instead of random amazing things, I will tell you all about magical beasts and such.
So today, being the first day of March (the best month of the year is over, I'll be in half-hibernation mode the rest of the year.) I found that it is indeed the day to give everyone an extensive knowledge on unicorns.
An unicorn (from latin unus 'one' and cornu 'horn') is a mythological creature. Though the modern popular image of the unicorn is sometimes that of a horse differing only in the horn oh its forehead, the traditional unicorn also has a billy-goat beard, a lions tail, and cloven hooves - these distinguish it from a horse. Marianna Mayer has observed "The unicorn is the only fabulous beast that does not seem to have been conceived out of human fears. In even the earliest references he is fierce yet good, selfless yet solitary, but always mysteriously beautiful. He could be captured only by unfair means, and his single horn was said to neutralize poison."
I've found that its proper to say an unicorn rather than a unicorn. Like an historical event.
I don't get it either.
Thats English for you.
