Answer: Peter

The full tongue twister is: 'Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers. A peck of pickled peppers Peter Piper picked. If Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers, where is the peck of pickled peppers Peter Piper picked?'

Several French names have English variations, and vice versa. For example, 'Jacques' is another French name which translates as 'Jack' in English.

6. What word means 'happening right now'? What can a person expect to get for Christmas?

Answer: Present

Past, present and future are the three simple verb tenses. The present tense indicates something that is happening right now or continuously.

The Fat Lady in 'Harry Potter' was replaced temporarily with Sir Cadogan in the third book, 'Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban'.

The bingo term is 'two fat ladies, eighty-eight'. This is because the number eighty-eight looks like two fat ladies (if you draw in the arms and legs).
