dterrick 0 #1 March 25, 2003 HERE is a wonderful page of language related stuff. Included are such interesting topics as: -spelling mistakes often made -words we totally F%^& up -how to correctly conjugate antidisestablishmentarianism (well, not really) Seriously, this page has a wealth of information and many links ... you may even find it useful. -thanks to the literate folk on the Big Coupe Group (BMW chat list http://www.normgrills.net/bcg/) for bringing this to 'my' attention. Now go find the reference on how to use quotation marks ) Dave T Life is very short and there's no time for fussing and fighting my friend (Lennon/McCartney) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest #2 March 25, 2003 I LOVE IT! Thanks! ELICIT/ILLICIT The lawyer tries to elicit a description of the attacker from the witness. "Elicit" is always a verb. "Illicit," in contrast, is always an adjective describing something illegal or naughty. "The mouse does not know life until it is in the mouth of the cat."
