The English Language

I thought you might all appreciate this......
Prof. Kerri James

We are all familiar with a

 

Herd of cows,

 

 

Flock of chickens,

 

 

School of fish

 

 

And a Gaggle of geese, and

 

 

A Pride of lions.

However, less widely known is:

 

 

A Murder of crows

 

 

as well as their cousins the rooks and ravens),

 

 

An Exaltation of doves

 

And, presumably because they look so wise:

 

A Congress of owls.

 

 

Now consider a group of Baboons. 
They are the loudest, most dangerous, most obnoxious, most viciously aggressive and least intelligent of all primates.........

 

And what is the proper collective noun for a group of baboons?

Believe it or not ……. A Parliament

 

 

YEP....A PARLIAMENT OF BABOONS!

Pretty much explains everything doesn't it?

You just can’t make this stuff up.
