Frequently asked questions are listed questions and answers, all supposed to be commonly asked in some context, and pertaining to a particular topic. "FAQ" is usually pronounced as an initialism rather than an acronym, but an acronym form does exist. Since the acronym FAQ originated in textual media, its pronunciation varies; "fack", "faak", "fax", and "facts" are commonly heard.[citation needed] Depending on usage, the term may refer specifically to a single frequently asked question, or to an assembled list of many questions and their answers.
While the name may be recent, the FAQ format itself is quite old. For instance, Matthew Hopkins wrote The Discovery of Witches in 1647 as a list of questions and answers, introduced as "Certaine Queries answered". Many old catechisms are in a question-and-answer (Q&A) format. Summa Theologica, written by Thomas Aquinas in the second half of the 13th century, is a series of common questions about Christianity to which he wrote a series of replies.
will hyde die upon the scaffold?
or will he find the courage
to release himself at the last moment?
god knows; i am careles;
this is my true hour of death,
and what is to follow
concerns another than myself.
here then, as i lay down
the pen and proceed
to seal up my confession,
i bring the life of that unhappy
henry jekyll to an end.
wake up, mr hyde
stop to think what is right
to hell with you mr kind
i damn you out of my mind
wake up, mr hyde
stop to care about your lies
to hell with you mr kind
you'll never get what is mine
is it cold where you are?
do you fell safe in the dark?
you really want to go this far?
all alone in your hyde park
farewell, mr kind
there's nothing left to hide
i know, i must take your life
to release what lies inside
farewell, mr kind
it's time for you to die
i have to sacrifice you
