my friend and i were commenting on the limits of the English language.

the five w's, specifically.

there needs to be an adverb for "where/when" simultaneously.

"whern" is what it is.

gary: "hey, come to my party, dude!"

dean: "whern?"

gary: "my house, 9:00 pm saturday!"

see? myself, parge, and my brother mark have made life so much easier for all of us.

ah crap, forget "discovery" and "innovation". someone beat us to it.

from "tongs language dictionary"
http://www.tongs.org.uk/wiki.pl?TongsLanguageDictionary
_________________________________________________________
Wow?
'Why?' and 'How?', all wrapped up in a single handy word.

Whern?
Inspired by 'Wow', Rico toiled for months in his laboratory to produce the word 'Whern' - a simple means of avoiding the labour and stress inherent in asking both When and Where one should meet up.

just say "tell me where it is in all 4 dimensions"

that's much quicker than saying "whern"
