The story Pecos Bill exhibits the characteristics of a tall tale because the things that Pecos Bill and Sluefoot Sue did are more than what ordinary men can do. Bill dug up the Rio Grande to keep out a group of Mexican bandits from entering Texas. When Bill met Sluefoot Sue, she was riding on a giant catfish. Also, Sluefoot Sue was able to rope six steers with one throw of her lasso. When Bill and Sluefoot Sue had their first kiss, Bill was so excited he started shooting into the air and when he finished, there was only one star left in the sky. This is why Texas is known as the "Lone Star" state.

Most religious terms in English are from Anglo-Saxon origin.

True or False:

False

Most religious terms in English come from Latin origin. These terms were introduced during the Roman Conquest (43-84 AD) through the Romans' main language: Latin. Most of the Celtic and Anglo-Saxon religions that were practiced were slowly suppressed by Christianity. This process was officially achieved in the year 597 in which Augustine of Canterbury was sent by Gregory the Great with the intention of fully evangelizing England's population.

Many political historians concur that the speech delivered characteristics of realism, idealism, historical reference, and strength, all of which are vital to a successful presidency. Kennedy was clear; the United States would pay any price to assure the success of liberty.
