No, it's risky, but it's a different kind of risk than using, say, some
experimental or unproved form of grammar. The word means /something,/
whereas some piece of funky grammar may be meaningless. The risk is that
*vabDot* may not mean what we think it means.

<p>No, it's risky, but it's a different kind of risk than using,
say, some experimental or unproved form of grammar. The word means
<i>something,</i> whereas some piece of funky grammar may be
meaningless. The risk is that <b>vabDot</b> may not mean what we
