AnswerMug Challenge Series: the year is 1817, you own a pub on the English countryside, and you're going to name it.

You must include the word "Tilde" in its name; what will it be?

Here's my entry: The Flattened Tilde

    The Flattened Tilde Sarcastic Scribble

    I am still new to amug and it seems some people here are really touchy. I don't want to offend you with my answer. I don't remember why you use the tilde, I think you had explained it in one of your responses to a question a while back. When I was researching names of English countryside pubs I learned the orgins of names of pubs in England are sometimes obscure, sometimes related to history or local specialties. When I was thinking of a name for your pub, I was thinking of the grapheme: tilde and the context of which you use it.

    I misunderstood the question, I thought the name of the pub had to have The Flattened Tilde __________________ This post was edited by ally at October 20, 2017 8:22 AM MDT
