Why is Saint Patrick the patron saint of engineers?
St. Patrick, as the patron saint of engineers, is credited with fostering the development of arts and crafts and introducing the knowledge of the use of lime as mortar in Ireland. He is also responsible for the initial construction of clay churches in Ireland in the 5th century A.D. Another of St. Patrick's achievements was teaching the Irish to build arches of lime mortar instead of dry masonry. These beginnings of ceramic work developed into organized crafts, and that's how St. Patrick became the patron saint of engineers.
What does the French word ste mean in English?
St and Ste are abbreviations for "saint" and "sainte" meaning "holy" in French. They are used for patron saints.
How many inventors are in the world?
Very good question. Depending on what is being "invented" will determine the number of inventors. If an idea is considered an invention, then there are as many inventors as there are people :) But if if you wondering how many inventors there are concerning the "Slap Chop", there are probably around 4 or 5.
Where do inventors work?
i would say inventors work in labs or large rooms where there is a lot of space.
