Did You Know
A fact from this article appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the "Did you know?" column on June 24, 2018.
The text of the entry was: Did you know ... that a theory that English nursery rhymes such as "Hark, Hark! The Dogs Do Bark" could be understood by translating sound-alike Dutch words back into English was called "ingenious if somewhat addlepated"?
Current status: Good article

James the VI and I

[edit]
