minus-squareDeconceptualist@lemm.eelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·edit-22 hours ago Appeal to authority popping up again? Fry is not an expert in usage. You are ceding him credibility he has not earned. That part was my opinion. Sorry I didn’t label it with a big red marker. You’re welcome to your own opinions. Overall though, I think you’re missing the forest for the trees a bit. This is tiresome so I’ll just leave it at that. If you enjoy linguistics, I’m happy for that, and glad we have it in common. The minor quibbles don’t really matter. It’s been fun; take care.
