Did You Know?
The riddle plays on counting the letter M in each word: "Minute" has one M, "moment" has two Ms, "thousand years" has zero Ms! The letter M is the 13th letter of the alphabet and one of the most common consonants in English. M originated from the Egyptian hieroglyph for water. In Roman numerals, M represents 1,000. The sound "mmm" is one of the most universally understood expressions across languages, often indicating satisfaction with food!
