in reply to Re^3: A new idiom -or- I Hate Unless
in thread A new idiom -or- I Hate Unless
I think the 'else' following an 'unless' in english is often spelled 'otherwise'. As in,
unless its raining i will go to the swimming pool, otherwise ill watch + a movie.
'else' in the context wouldn't be wrong, but it wouldnt be particularly idiomatic.
All IMO of course.
