Re: [MTC Global] Presence of Mind

Great! You are nearly right.

But, we can begin a sentence with a because.

"Because he was silent, he had no friends" is grammatically correct.

The actual answer was...

No sentence ends with a because, because, because is a conjunction. :-)

You cannot start a sentence with because, because, because is a preposition.

The second question that was asked to him and his response is even more famous.

Let me see if anyone can answer it right.

The question was... "Construct a sentence with the word "because" repeating thrice ( one after the other and not in different part of the sentence) "

Any guess , what he answered?

C. N. Annadurai was a prominent chief minister of the Tamil Nadu state of India who was known for his proficiency in languages - particularly English and Tamil.

Once he went on a foreign tour to Yale university during 1968.

He was awarded the Chubb Fellowship at Yale University, being the first non-American to receive this honour

There he was requested to speak to the students. During an interactive session held with students, guys were allowed to ask some puzzle like questions that tests one's English proficiency.

One of the guys in that hall stood up and asked him to say a hundred words in English which don't contain the letters A, B, C or D.

Annadurai immediately started to tell the words one by one.

They are one, two, three up to ninety nine!

Everyone present in the hall were surprised and waiting for his 100th word. If he said 'hundred' he would have failed but after 'ninety nine', he said 'STOP'.

The hall was filled with a minute of huge applause.
