Hello,

It's kill-oh-me-ter, not kil-ahm-uh-tur. After all, it's not sent-i-mah-tur.

I believe this ties the record for most hyphens in a post.

The males have evolved into “sexual parasites” and are much smaller in size. After fusing themselves to females, they lose all their internal organs – including their eyes – and are left with nothing but testes. Forever forged, the male provides sperm in exchange for nutrition.
