It’s summertime, and many of you are planning a wonderful vacation. Some are planning exciting activities not far from home, while others are escaping to a foreign country. When you travel to places where you’re not familiar with the language, it may be challenging to get around. Sarah and Veronique, two dedicated QA team members, have joined forces to help answer: What sentences or words do you need to know when traveling to France?

Bon voyage!!

Did you know? WikiAnswers currently has 2,471 community-grown Q&A collections; in short, there are a whole buncha topics covered on the site, and the number is constantly getting bigger.

Since March began, we’ve been finding WikiAnswers listed as a source for lots of blog posts spanning several topics. Let’s take a look:

• Animals: Don’t you love how a group of animals always has to have a special name? Laughter Thoughts introduces us to the troop - her own and an actual troop of monkeys.

• Human anatomy: Over at The Mutated World of Eclectic Disarray, we get to find out how much of the human body is made up of water. That’s an easy one, you say? Well, what about the human brain, then? This statistic makes you think twice (be careful of the puddles).

• Christianity: Learn how to say the Rosary of Liberation with This Burning Fire.

• Politics: Finally, someone is sharing what a Super Delegate is with the rest of us (and that someone is Clear Fog Blog).

• Junk food: Fracas is celebrating the birth of the Oreo cookie! I wonder what kind of cake an Oreo cookie eats on its own birthday?

• Sea food: If we eat oysters, what do oysters eat? Small oysters? Small people? Before I get a head of myself, Live Love Life has it all worked out.

• Sports: A teacher gets philosophical about sports, starting with the basics: Why are they important?

• Personal development: Interesting blog - Agile Personal Development - discussing the difference between skills and knowledge.

• Language: In case you couldn’t figure it out, and are ready for the truth, dvmp sorts it out from his latest blog entry: Where did the phrase “beat you like a redheaded stepchild” come from?

• Seasons: It feels like it’s spring already, but Scott reminds us that the first day of spring has not yet sprung.

• Lawyers: Brand new shark lawyer with a brand new blawg wants to remind the rest of us how many lawyers there are in the United States. Thanks, man. Now I will jump off the roof.

Here’s an equation I’d like you to ponder:

Words + food + new day = get hungry every morning with a new food word every day

Not good at math? That’s ok, I’ll spell it out instead:

L-e-a-r-n a n-e-w f-o-o-d w-o-r-d e-v-e-r-y d-a-y.

It can all be yours with our brand new widget, Food Word of the Day, accessible from Facebook, our RSS listing and the Widget Gallery. Feed your Facebook profile, personal homepage or RSS reader with gourmet words and then show off when you cook dinner (or order in).

Get ready to get hungry!
