Are you sure you spelled those all correctly?
Elena
Tee hee!
There were at least two of the words that had question marks instead of letters. Maybe it was because our typewriters don't have those letters! I don't have a clue!
Aloe
They're probably something like o's or u's with dots over them.
Elena
Yep! I just decided to not worry about it, not even tomorrow!

I'll tell you where you can find those funky characters if you ever need them. This is where they are on my computer.
Click on the start button at the lower left. Select "all programs". Select "Accessories". Select "System Tools". Select "Character Map". Then click on the character of interest, and click on "Select" and "Copy", and when you're ready to use it, just paste it into your text (Edit, Paste or control V).

Wow! Thanks! I learned the computer on my own and I knew there are all kinds of hidden things like that but I never knew how to find them. In that post above, the question marks were all that I had to go on. Someone else had put the words on the internet using the question marks instead of the true letters. The Danish and Swedish ones are messed up too but I have no idea how to correct them. The odds of anyone knowing those two languages and being able to tell us the correct words are highly unlikely. In the meantime, "Merry Christmas".
