Chuffed is a word we use. I think it is more expressive (and shorter) than very, very pleased.
Some one was a real numbers nerd to work out that fact.
Chuffed ... one of my favourite words ... I hadn't thought about the letter 'a' not appearing as such in any of the first thousand numbers ... my toes don't count further than that! Enjoy the day ... at least we have sun here, despite chilly early autumn day ... cheers (another favourite!) Hilary
I think we are being a little English-centric here. It is only in English that the letter A does not appear. In French the fourth number is quatre, in Spanish cuatro , in German the eighth word is acht - and so on. I was really chuffed to see Kamala demolish Trump last night.
That’s an English expression, right? I’m chuffed that Harris thumped Trump’s ass! I knew about the letter A but forgot until you mentioned it here. Hope you’re having a lovely day.
Chuffed. I like it!
Indeed, on the numbers nerd:)
Yay for the sun:) I hear ya on the counting on toes:) Cheers,
Excellent sentence.
I actually use "chuffed" rather a lot!
Some words cannot be bettered, and chuffed is one of them.
I've never used chuffed, but perhaps I should start.
Love,

Good sentence. Heh.
Excellent!
Te mando un beso y me imagino que eso es ingles. Te mando un beso.
I don't think I've ever used that word before. I may have to incorporate into a poem. haha
That would be fun;)
I completely agree;)
It's a plan. I intend on incorporating it. It's a fun little word:)
Yes and thanks;) Sending you a hug.
I started using it when I visited my online British friends. Your trivia was news to me.
