The letter "Q"

Queue - pronounced as "kyu"
- one of the most asked words to be spelled in spelling competitions.
- defined as waiting line

I seldom use the word queue in conversations or articles. In the Philippines, you could always say "Please fall in line" and everybody will understand you. However, in Singapore, they found a way to use queue in a simple, extremely easy to spell way:

Then I realized that Filipinos also use the letter Q in a variety of interesting ways, such as, Banana-Q, Bar-B-Q, and Wer na u? And2 na q!
