It should pop up at the bottom of the screen.

Shhhh...

No one tell him the magic is Google translate.

Where is the option I couldn’t see it?

Mine is in English?

Which was the silly question?

There was an invisible question mark after "So the Seven Sisters Road leads to hills called the Seven Sisters".

A mistake certainly, and probably sloppiness too because I couldn't be bothered to google it for factchecking, but it was hardly silly. And there was no invisible question mark. It was a statement because I truly believed SS road lead to SS hills -- it made perfect sense, and still does. I may google it after all because I'm not entirely confident in your version.

Oh.

I thought you were making a joke. Anyway, "serious answer to a silly question" isn't a poke at the questioner, it's a poke at oneself for taking some fun too seriously.

Haha! Well we're both idiots then. I actually thought I'd learnt something new from your comment, but no, I still don't know why the SSR is so-named. I did learn that there are some hills with the same name though.

...so I looked it up. Elms, not Oaks:

"The name is derived from seven elms which were planted in a circle with a walnut tree at their centre on an area of common land known as Page Green.[4] The clump was known as the Seven Sisters by 1732.[5]"

... and I read what you’d looked up, but your research being incomplete I realised the pursuit of such knowledge would require a younger man to take over, a Stephen Hawking to your Roger Penrose.

You discovered the seven trees in north London, I rediscovered the seven hills in Sussex and am currently working on a unifying theory of trees and hills, our earlier model of linear geographic connection having been proven entirely wrong and been rightly ridiculed. It was an embarrassingly naive theory, I think you’ll agree, for which we were equally at fault, but never mind, we move on. I’ll share my unifying theory with you once I’m satisfied with its integrity, and then I think we should publish. What do you say?
