Additionally, English borrowed words from Greece & Rome.

However, on the subject of errors, it can be said that a faux pas was made in regards to Sidewinder Fang being ordered in Britonia rather than Liberty. The logic behind this is rather simple when one regards the nature of a Sidewinder, what it is and where it is from.

The Sidewinder is a type of Rattlesnake found ONLY in the Southwest portion of the United States. Ergo, it is highly unlikely that an average citizen of Britian would know of their existence. Thus, when traveling to another sector of the galaxy and 800 years pass then it is even less likely they would know of a Sidewinder. Which means that the correct and proper region from which Sidewinder Fang would originate would be the Texas System of Liberty.

So, how does a Britonian oder a dring based on a snake they woudl have no inkling of? HHHHHMMMMMMM.

If the thred can take one more...

a free lancer is some one who works for you on a need basis but is not on your pay roll. Example- Peter Parker was a freelance photographer for the Daily Bugle and sold his picture to them but was not paid hourly by them. Jamison bought his pictures of Spiderman.

In the first Spider-Man movie, when PP tried to get a job at the Daily Bugle,
Jonah Jameson said and I quote, "No Job, Freelance! Best thing in the world for a kid your age." and later, " No job. just keep freelancing I'll see what I can do." So it means randomly doing a job for whoever pays the best under the best circumstances.

We don't own this place, but we have an understanding with the people who do.....

Actually, a lot of brits will have heard about the sidewinder. it's a type of snake that moves by crawling sideways along hot sand so as to keep as little of its body in contact with the heat as is possible, but is not otherwise particularly remarkable, being neither remarkably venomous, nor particularly large. (bless you, discovery channel)

Besides, what's to say that Trent learned about a sidewinder fang in Bretonia? Remember that he had already travelled a lot in the edge and border worlds long before he ever arrived on Freeport 7 or Manhattan. The barender said "all we have is liberty ale, friend" so perhaps the good stuff had already been consumed by the other patrons before trent arrived, leaving him with the dregs.

"preacher, don't the bible have some pretty specific things to say about killing?"
"Very specific. But it gets fuzzy in the area of kneecaps..."

Or perhaps the Liberty Ale is alcohol free, and the good stuff is illegal like so many things in Sirius.
