Because they honestly didn't think that one word characteristics with NO meaning whatsoever would be considered one, right? "Which would be translating whole sentences into number values. And to do this, you must add together the values from each word to get a final value for that sentence. Again, remember, do not reduce." She reiterated the last bit sternly, once more, because she knew she always emphasized the reduction in any previous calculation they've done for Arithmancy. This was different.

k's work that was now on the board. What was Kurokawa?
Having finished the first part, Evelyn made herself comfortable in her seat (or at least as comfortable as one can get in these seats) and looked around the room. It didn't take long until Professor Hadley had given them the green light to continue on to sentences rather than individual words. Wait, was that a green light? Or more of a general 'we'll be doing this after I lecture you more about it' type thing.
Yet, that lecture hadn't been said. In fact, she was already helping people who started. Hmm. Glancing down to her own notebook, she huffed a sigh as she started to tap her quill quietly on the desk again.
If she thought words were hard to think of...than trying to think of a sentence was way worse. But, she thought of the most true sentence there could be in the world. It was so true, it had to be written down in CAPITAL letters.
