Intuition other said this is our sixth sense

Hi Susan,

If you didn't understand Mister Micawber's witty explanation I would tell you than a teacher, because I used to be a teacher.
We have five sense organs than you know very well.English say in brief:
five senses.
These are:
1.sight - /eyes/
2.hearing - /ears/
3.smell - /nose/
4.taste - / tongue/
5.touch - /skin/
We say that we have a sixth sense when we forebode or presage something.Otherwise I believe this is true, but it is only a belief.

Take care:
Kati Svaby
