#Spaghettification

Updated: Jul 22, 2020

Process by which objects would stretch into long, thin shapes in very strong gravity fields..bla..bla.. I thought it were the act of bingeing in large quantity Italian pasta..

"Spaghetto" (singular for "Spaghetti..) comes from "Spago" meaning "String" (String theory again..) probably from Latin "Spacus".

"Spaghetti" is a good word to remember the pronunciation of the consonant "G" followed by "H"followed by vowels "E" or "I" (That's why the pronunciation of"Gelato" -NO "H").

That's it for today ; now that you have studied for 2 minutes you deserve a spaghettification (or a Gelato..)


Pier.
