for example:
I'm very happy to read this as I often claim true synonyms are very rare, there's usually a subtle difference ie in the frequency of use.Mike Riley The '-st' ending is not added just to be "fancier": these pairs of words have their origins in Middle English and the shorter words have simply evolved to drop their Germanic endings. However, they have also evolved so as to have subtle differences of meaning which we Brits generally know how to use. This has also happened with synonyms from Old French too. E.g.: tone, shade, nuance...
For example:
Mike Tombolini Only one I disagree with is amidst. We use amidst here in the US more than amid

Note this list is priceless
as these words are rarely learned and rarely known.
Some words correspond to laughs in French, no?

SORRY!
I don't think
~~ edit
Ah interesting!
My dictionary states
"fish / fIS / noun (pl fish, fishes)"
I learn plural -> fish
my dictionary also says:
- "there are plenty more fish in the sea un de perdu, dix de retrouvés."

Hi Muriel,
Problems may be pronunciation and when we need to move the tail.
Yeah I guess grammar is more simple and vocabulary easier.MurielB a écrit:... Gérard, it's such a nice way to communicate.

onomatopoeia (anyone knows the plural?)?
I knew this!
Supposing babies cry the same way,
People don't have the same hearing
When a British baby is crying,
British people hear a dog barking
LOL

Easy!
When you know the alphabet,
you know how to pronounce
and you can realize
similarities,
known words...
