Where did the word "hybrid" originate? Does the word have any association with "high breed" or "high bred"?
I appreciate if you can support your answer with a reference.
Thank you all in advance.....

I am so sick of them spelling it loose.
It is "they will lose the game" NOT "they will loose the game."

When someone does something pleasing, one often hears "A man/women after my own heart!"
When alternative phrases also convey this meaning?

I just made myself an email with the words service and funds i.e;
servicefunds@yahoo.com.
What does that make you think of?
Is it a good thing or bad thing?
Thank you for your opinion.

my teacher says a complete sentence is not a fragment, so its a complete thought. anyway on a homework assignment it said 'write in complete sentences!!'. i did, and the teacher marked all of them wrong!! when i asked her why she said they werent complete sentences, but they were. she told me that a complete sentence 'rephrases' the question. that doesnt make sense. why would you rephrase the question when its right there?! for example:

1. where is the white city located?
A:the white city is located ___________.

why are we supposed to rephrase the question? we dont rephrase the question in conversations. is it just to make us write more? or is my teacher crazy?

here is a poem, how does it sound, and do u have any suggestions.

Trapped in a world unknown
silence by a veil.
Wanting my story or plea heard
my feeble attempts seem to fail.
I become restless my soul enraged
as I watch the world move on
and my soul is lock in this cage.

Trapped in a world unknown
silence by my fears.
Not sure if I want my stroy still known.
I let my voice slowly disapper.
My restless sould begins to settle and my soul is not enrage.
I still watch the world move on
as my soul quietly rest in its cage.

Trapped in a world unknown.
No longer silence by a veil of fear.
Determined to get my story known.
I make my voice boisterly reappear.
No longer restless but my soul is enrage.
I join the world as it moves on
now that I'm free from my cage.
