Thanks to Russianlinux for his contribution! *́

Let's make this list as long as possible - as you all know, it's important to practice and those first couple of successes are particularly rewarding!

EDIT: I will keep updating this as I come up with new ones/as, hopefully, other people will contribute, so keep checking back.

Oh, and as a little exercise guys, post your best guesses down in the comments if you want :)... you can practice typing some of those words out :)
