ryst Posted February 24, 2005 Share Posted February 24, 2005 I can think of a few..... -Love -Amazing....everytime someone says the word "amazing" i want to puke. Besides "love" it's the most overused word I hear. -When someone dies I hear (or read on this board): "that sucks" all the time. So if I have a flat tire or my string breaks on my guitar, that sucks too. But can we really compare the two??? I hope not. That's all i can think of right now. Do these words and others really have multiple meanings or are we not using the correct phrases to describe how we really feel? www.myspace.com/apocrypha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I I mjrn Posted February 24, 2005 Share Posted February 24, 2005 "Affect" & "effect" (in a non-technical sense); both these words are almost completely cast aside today in preference for the misuse of the term "impact". What are the two most useful words in English? "Stuff" & "thing"; pronouns of completely fluid meaning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
