Confusion isn't what I'm experiencing. I'm just hoping it's also not what t=
he beginning speakers are experiencing.
And before I go on any further I do want to say that I'm not trying to knoc=
k the KWOTD that you've set up - its lengthy absence was missed and I think=
it's fantastic that you've got another version up and running. Especially =
with Twitter=2C which is a perfect format for it and hopefully is getting o=
ut to bundles of people. I just had issues with this particular example (an=
d with a more widespread tendency I've noticed for referring to multiple-wo=
rd phrases as being a Klingon "word for X" - in fairness I wasn't intending=
to single this one post out for that and I'm sorry if it seemed I was pick=
ing on it).
