  • Same way as English, by combining preexisting words. For example, ether + net + port = ethernet port. In this case the first two characters (that’s what they’re called) mean “net” and “road”, combining to mean “network”.

    I think adding new characters is very, very rare. Would be kinda like adding a new letter to the alphabet.


  • I would say that getting healthier and fitter is absolutely useful, and so is entertainment.

    But anyways, some sports can be useful for training purposes (Ever heard of the Firefighter Olympics? It’s really cool).

    Also there’s also stuff like people jogging/biking to go places, and sailing maybe can also fall into this category though I don’t think it’s a thing anymore. (IIRC in the 1700s there was a sort of sport where ships would race each other across the Atlantic to deliver stuff as fast as possible. Not sure though, take with grain of salt.)
