But since you bring up the issue of language, Auchen, I must respectfully mention that on the recent "Stamped Dropouts" thread, you used "inferring" where I think you meant "implying."
Editors are a pain in the butt sometimes, but we see it as our job.
jonwvara -
I have to concede that "implying" would have been a better choice of word -(meaning to "indicate" or "suggest").
"Inferring" likewise means to "imply or suggest", but this is only listed as the
FOURTH definition in dictionary.com - well down the list of meanings given.
- So are you implying, or inferring, that I should kill myself now?
