I got a message talking about the English word clairvoyance today. The sentence it used was digested from the leading [1] of a piece of news on The Observer Sunday July 16, 2006. The leading let me know that there is another kind of food in this world, which is not tried by Cantonese yet: vulture.
Note [1]:
South Africa's national lottery is claiming an unlikely victim: vultures. Local people - convinced these birds' superb eyesight gives them the gift to see the future - are eating vulture meat to acquire the power of clairvoyance.
