I want to build two-dimentional array of strings where length of one dimention is 2. Similar to this

string[,] array = new string[,]
{
    {"a", "b"},
    {"c", "d"},
    {"e", "f"},
    {"g", "h"}
}

Doing

List<string[]> list = new List<string[]>();

list.Add(new string[2] {"a", "b"});
list.Add(new string[2] {"c", "d"});
list.Add(new string[2] {"e", "f"});
list.Add(new string[2] {"g", "h"});

list.ToArray();

gives me

string[][]

but not

string[,] 

array.

Just curious, is there some trick to build dynamically

string[,] 

array somehow?
