Monika J


some extra questions... no these are not hw questions. more like study questions

can natural disasters be avoided?
does any good come from natural disasters?
Thanks so much,

Answer
Everywhere. There isn't a place on the planet that won't be too hot, too cold, too wet, too dry, too windy, too slippery, too shaky, too fiery, have too much lightening, or have too much lava at some point in time. Some places more than others of course.

Perhaps not avoided altogether, but the risk can be reduced via proper planning, building, and mobility of humans and resources.

Yes. For example, in flood plains, the flood event is a hazard for residents, but also the very thing that makes the land fertile and productive for agriculture. Or, in the case of wild fires, there are some plant species that rely on fire events to reproduce.

What do you think of these two names?

Q. Monika & Saskia

- Please leave the spelling of Monika as is and don't say you prefer Monica - that's great but the spelling is this way for a reason and it is legit.

And which name do you like better?

Thanks :)


Answer
Firstly: HAPPY AUSTRALIA DAY! I'm a fellow Aus :) just enjoying my day in the hot Aussie sun.

Okay, this is super hard. Both names are really cute!

Monika -- 7/10
I actually really like this name. It's one that goes in the same category as Jemimah - it's really cute but a little quirky which I generally quite like. I also love the nickname potential for Monika -- Monnie, Nikki (my name!), Nika, Kaka etc. Monika ages really well, is classic and very feminine.

Saskia -- 8/10
I really like this name as well. Again, it's very feminine and ages so well - it sounds sassy and cute on a toddler but also sounds exotic and sophisticated on a young woman. Again the nickname potential is great - Sassy or Kia are both gorgeous nicknames.

So, I'd have to say Saskia but it's definitely a close call.
