  • It would be nice to have a smarter search function for those of us who can't remember exactly how something is spelled or for those of us, for instance, who would like to find all words beginning with the prefix "un-".

    I tried to use parameter expansion, e.g. searching "un*" or "un?", but needless to say it didn't work. This may be a tall order, however, but I think something along these lines would be ideal.

  • I never thought about it but I actually like the sound of genitive. It sounds maybe nicer in German pronunciation with the soft 'g'. Also, it's better, in my mind, than the unnecessarily harsh sounds that appear in the words 'Accusative' and 'Dative.' 'Nominative' too appears to be more friendly than it is. What are we left with for comfort? Only poor genitive, meek and modest.

  • A defunct liquor store with a name that far surpasses "cellar door" as the most beautiful phrase in English.
