In International News Groups one can not get hung up on spelling variations. To me, it is impolite to even correct anyone's English, unless the meaning is ambivalent, or I sense that the poster would like to be corrected. After all, If I had to post in another language, it would be a miracle if anyone could understand me at all! |

I think the colour of the correction depends very much on the donor. You may be motivated by the desire to empower or demean the recipient. A donor may make a grandiose correction for display purposes. It's really down to the way that you do it. Gummo |

He could have used "ambiguous", and that wouldn't be abivalent either. Which is because, of course, the two words are synonyms, and therefore ambiguous is abivalent and abivalent is abiguous, when used properly, as he did. Got that? -- Floyd L.
