Jabber's English Note

Typhoon. I have ever remembered this word at my very first. Its pronunciation is so close to its Chinese equivalent. Actually, a typhoon is called a typhoon only in Asia. In America, it is called a hurricane. Yes, hurricane.

Well, let me introduce another word: tycoon. If you have ever watched the movie Titanic, let me remind that Rose's fiancee was a Philladelphia steel tycoon. Bill Gates is a software tycoon. If you are a big fugure in some field, you are a tycoon. Of course, a tycoon is powerful and has a lot of money. We may hear that Person X is a media tycoon, Person Y is a petroleum tycoon...

It is not a bad idea for a girl to marry a tycoon's son, or a tycoon himself, no matter how old he is.
