If single words solved any problem, answered any question, would we not speak in grunts? [on hold]












-2














If single words answered any question, would we not speak only by grunting? Is this what you English majors strive for, or is it simply a cheap trick to win arguments?
Le mot just seldom appears unaccompanied by adjectives, adverbs, dependent clauses, and the like.English majors such as yourselves know this. For shame, for shame. All your education has taught you is how to be usage bullies. It is no wonder that you are bitter.
