Why is colonel spelled so? ~The Yeti~ Join or Log In to answer.

The word derives from "column," because a colonel headed the first company of a regiment. It entered the English language in the 16th century as "coronel." Eventually the spelling returned to the word column, but the pronunciation stayed.

Why does the moon look bigger some nights than others? ~The Yeti~ Join or Log In to answer.

elliptical orbit of the moon, sometimes it is closer to earth than other times

-Mangangali (7Q / 4810A) Fri Jul 25, 2008 12:58am

if it's closer to the horizon, it looks bigger because you can compare it to objects, rather than open space, tho it's really the same size
