Hey, Zanhe, I just changed the DYK hook from sack full to sackful, but of course I can only read a translation of the source. Recieved a sack full to me means someone handed him a sack, and it was full of letters. Sackful to me means he received enough letter to fill a sack. If I've just turned a correct hook into an incorrect one, please let me know asap, and apologies for the late change, I just moved this to queue this morning. --valereee (talk) 23:48, 25 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
