Although not gay myself, the first time I heard someone describe something as "gay", I was quite shocked. It seems to be in common use now.

This is the opposite of the original meaning of the word, which was happy and joyous.

Unfortunately I never did Latin at school so can you help?

If the singular of data is datum, then is the singular of flora, florum?
If not, why not?

And if it is, can you please give an example of when it is or can be used?

Did I use the word "But" correctly in this sentence?

'Material possesion is but an expression of vanity'

The meaning I'm trying to get across is - Material possesion= expression of vanity

I always come across "But" used this way and I'm not sure if it's correct.

thanks!

Doesn't the 'phobe' part in a word refer to being scared or afraid of something?

But these two words tend to get used when someone shows a distaste or a disliking to someone, not a fear.

And before anyone tries to be a smartarse, i'm not either of them....

I mean it's not as if we all sleep with a dictionary under our pillow and it wouldn't be too bad if the question was being answered BUT just to make a comment about the mistake is so sad.
By the way please feel free to comment about any spelling mistakes - only if you have nothing better to do!!!

Ok, I'm 11. Many people say that I'm too mature for their age and don't really like to hang out with me...I try to act like a 7 year old but it doesn't really help. I started typing because as "cuz" and all those types of things...having grammatical issues, not putting any puntuation. Also I act and talk like...like I'm 20 or something. I bond well with adults, as for children they think I'm weird. Of course it doesn't bother me, they're too idiotic to even care. I had an argument with a 15 year old...and man did I find out how immature teenagers actually were. I'll try and see if I could find the emails again...I deal with issues completely different from other kids. I don't beg or anything like that. I have a job to save up money for college and a nice car by the time I'm 16. I've studied the DAT with my sister (though not intentionally) and don't even to find time (never tried...) with my other friends. I go on children's websites, such as Neopets, and they thought I was like 20..

Describe a general day in life of what it is like for a college boy who is special needs and goes to "special classrooms" and has an aide to help with excess work, but it is a boy who is smart and can do stuff (ie. NOT retardedness or stupidness, more or less like LD or ADD)
