I like them clean, not marked up, but I also enjoy, somehow, knowing that this paper has been touched by other hands and these words have flowed into other minds. If the book has an interesting signature on the flyleaf, a "discarded" stamp from some rural library, or an odd bookplate, so much the better. When I was younger, I'd buy them at the local thrift shop, so they mostly were from close to home. Most were old novels or story collections -- I got my Dumas, Scott, Poe, Hawthorne that way.
Equivocation. It is often confused with amphiboly; the difference is that equivocation arises from an ambiguous definition of a word, while amphiboly refers to ambiguous sentence structure due to punctuation or syntax.
Examples[edit] Fallacious reasoning[edit] Equivocation is the use in a syllogism (a logical chain of reasoning) of a term several times, but giving the term a different meaning each time. For example: A feather is light.
Ineluctable meaning - definition of ineluctable by Mnemonic Dictionary. Quotidiana. TAKE OUR WORD FOR IT. Take Our Word For It Issue 93. From Caroline: I know fork is such a commonly used word, but it is so weird.
If you say it a lot, it's actually a really funny word. I was wondering where this word originated. Yes, we are quite familiar with the phenomenon where a word starts to sound strange if it is uttered over and over. Bizarre that, eh? Fork derives from Latin furca, which was a word used to describe a two-pronged fork, the kind that would be used in gardens. So when did this word come to apply to the table utensil? Introduced. The first recorded use of English fork applied to the table utensil comes from 1463, in a will: "I beqwethe to Davn John Kertelynge my silvir forke for grene gyngour.
" So what did people use to eat before the fork became widespread? Fork also figures in one of the few examples of rhyming slang in American English.

Research. By E. Robert Schulman Charlottesville, Virginia Abstract We (meaning I) present observations on the scientific publishing process which (meaning that) are important and timely in that unless I have more published papers soon, I will never get another job. These observations are consistent with the theory that it is difficult to do good science, write good scientific papers, and have enough publications to get future jobs. 1. Scientific papers (e.g. 2.
How I wrote the most upvoted answer on Quora (a... - Quorabot - Quora. Almost a week ago I wrote the most upvoted answer on Quora, which went from zero to over 5,100 upvotes in 3½ days.
The scary thing was, I designed that answer to get 1,000 upvotes. And I've done it before too (see here, here and here) with increasing frequency. It doesn't always work - and it's not the only way - but if you're curious, I'll let you into my secret sauce here. It's a seduction, not a shag I used to follow the old cliche: always answer the question in the first line, then elaborate.

Syllables, Scrabble Letters, and Picking Brand Names - Rich Barton. The Completely Ownable, “Made-Up” Consumer Brand Wins Long Term I wrote this as a private email in 2006 and just refreshed for the blog “Should we call our site something literal or should we make up a new word?” This is a question I often get asked by consumer product/service entrepreneurs. In light of Microsoft’s re-launch of Microsoft MSN Live Search as “Bing”, I thought it timely to re-fresh some old thoughts I’ve had about naming, words, and branding.
It shouldn’t come as a surprise that I believe it is much more powerful long-term to make up a new word (e.g., Expedia, Zillow, or recently Glassdoor, 3 words that my teams have created) than it is to use a literal word (e.g., Travel.com, RealEstate.com, or Jobreviews.com).
