Hi, Dallas Hinton!
I read your message from 12.07.2014 13:57
about some more.
DH> Actually, I meant that I don't know why it's "soccer" in North
DH> America and "football" everywhere (?) else!
I know that in Croatia people don't use the word "football". Instead
they call it "nogomet" - it sounds probably like "footthrowing" in
English. I believe that in this way they fight against foreign words.
Bye, Dallas!
