    What is "Um", Dallas?

    Technically, an interjection - a noise having no useful information. In this context, a polite way of saying "Hey, wait a minute!"


    Cheers... Dallas

    Ardith!

    A kindly Universities gifted me with a tad over 3lbs of milk 3.2%,
    rump I am guessing. Now I'm waiting recommendations on how to cook
    it. So, if You were to cook it..what would You do?
    First, I wondered why Denis was measuring milk in pounds&why..since he seems to be reasonably knowledgeable about cooking..he'd be asking how
    to cook milk without saying how he was planning to use it.
    Very nice.

    Second, I read the kludge lines. I saw that Denis was apparently practising English by rewording a message from another echo.
    I'll give You a try next time I am feeling a big breakfast /& for dinner.

    Third, I consulted the source&saw that the original enquiry was about moose meat. That would explain the use of the word "rump".
    :-Й

    If Denis wants to know how to cook moose meat, that's a different question. There are deer in Eurasia which some authorities consider to
    be of the same species. But unless I hear he has been offered meat he doesn't know what to do with I'll regard this data as solely of
    academic interest.. :-Q
    Thanks!
