The term “check mate” literally means “the king is dead”.
We know the word for king from other known forms like “sheikh” or “Shah”. I don’t think the word for “dead” was loaned to English from Persian or Arab in any phrases or sayings except “check mate”.

I think you misunderstood the title. Australia will not sign the death certificate of small islands like Samoa. They will suffer heavily if we don’t stop with fossil fuels.

It wasn’t meant as a police investigation, I just wanted to tell you how good it was if it were yours.
Is this your oc? I would totally wear a t-shirt like that
What’s the programming language that allows emojis as variable names?
Looked it up a little: it’s all languages that support extended characters and not only ASCII. But it looks pretty unreadable.
