The Tender For Law

English Only

ENGLISH is the international language of law and commerce. Knowing FRENCH is useful for understanding LEGAL ENGLISH, but FRENCH is not the international language of law and commerce, so we will ignore French speakers who speak to us in the language of a conquered people.

Non.

I understand that you are a proud Québécois, but the people here have nothing but contempt for you because of decades of transfer payments and NONE OF YOU understanding what Quebec sovereignty means. None of you know who Russell Rogers Smith is, and you're too proud and arrogant to teach. Just go away and be Retardier somewhere else.

Have you ever found yourself searching for the right word in a conversation and have somehow fallen completely short of an apt description?

Have you ever been in a situation where you see someone struggling with bed clothing, moments from death, and wonder if there's a word that would complete the thought?

Well, wonder no more!

Today's word is carphology. Say it with me - car-fall-o-gee "Delirious fumbling with bed clothes prior to death." Try to use this word in sentences throughout the day to solidify the concept. Carphology.
