Re^2: Yet Another Appeal for Civility

++shmem and shmem++ (even if the behaviour is undefined..)

I'd add that the best behaviour is what I do with my relatives: if something good come from them I ear, if something bad I ignore. Non ragioniam di lor, ma guarda e passa

The worst it happened in that thread is that the OP received some decent answer + some hours of polemics.

When I saw the question I read some answers, then I started seeing polimic ones: I thought "it is possible no one has suggested to glob?". I've done CTRL-F glob ENTER and when 0 occurences appeared I composed my answer. I'm glad to help here at PM, more: I'm proud if I can help someone in Perl. I'm here to learn, to have fun and to offer my limited knoweledge if someone need it.

Severity with myself, indulgence for others. Do your best, skip the rest.

And take it easy!

++Discipulus for teaching me, a native English speaker, a new and useful word with polemics. That's exactly the word I was looking for, thanks. Just another Perl hooker - And definitely not the kind with any `$class` whatsoever.	[reply] [d/l]
Re^4: Yet Another Appeal for Civility -- about choosing words by Discipulus (Canon) on Mar 14, 2017 at 08:51 UTC
`;=)` Ah! this happens sometimes: you are welcome. The cause is simple: neo-latin native speakers choose among words they are familiar with. In english many not so frequent, scientific, studied or intellectual ones comes from latin or even greek ones(as in this case). The result is that even a person who has not studied english (well, some months some decade ago..) and that make many ugly basic mistakes can produce sentences with a studied appearence to the ear of a native english speaker. This is an intersting phenomenon. familiar, studied (adj.), intellectual, person, decade, phenomenon are examples where a native english probably would choose a different rooted word coming from old english or ancient germanic.
