Euro proof sets are proof sets of the coins of the euro.
 Proof coins were originally coins minted to test the dies used in the coin minting process and to archive sets of coins minted every year.
 Modern proof sets are printed in higher numbers and are sold to the public and numismatists for collecting.
 Modern proof coins are often minted using special processes in order to make the coins more aesthetically pleasing.
 Mints in countries in the European Union who use the euro often make proof sets of the upcoming year's euro coins.
 Sets from these countries are listed below.
Argentine humour is exemplified by a number of humorous television programmes, film productions, comic strips and other types of media.
 Everyday humour includes jokes related to recurrent themes, such as xenophobic jokes at the expense of Galicians (Spaniards) called "chistes de gallegos" (where they are commonly portrayed as simpletons), often obscene sex-related jokes ("chistes verdes", literally "green jokes", a term equivalent to the English-language "blue humour"), jokes about the English, the Americans, blonde women (supposedly clueless, according to a misoginist point of view), dark humour (called "humor negro"), word and pronunciation games, jokes about Argentines themselves, etc.
A strategic group is a concept used in [strategic management] that groups companies within an industry that have similar business models or similar combinations of strategies.
 For example, the restaurant industry can be divided into several strategic groups including fast-food and fine-dining based on variables such as preparation time, pricing, and presentation.
 The number of groups within an industry and their composition depends on the dimensions used to define the groups.
 Strategic management professors and consultants often make use of a two dimensional grid to position firms along an industry's two most important dimensions in order to distinguish direct rivals (those with similar strategies or business models) from indirect rivals.
 Strategy is the direction and scope of an organization over the long term which achieves advantages for the organization while business model refers to how the firm will generate revenues or make money.

In speaking or writing English, a Gallicism often results from a direct translation from French, giving an unidiomatic expression.
 False friends often provide occasions for Gallicisms: For example, using the verb "to assist" to mean "to be present at" (as in the French "assister à") is a Gallicism.
 So is "we haven't had much chance" to mean "we haven't had much luck."
Fast Friends is a novel by British author Jill Mansell, about three school friends reunited after several years apart.
