Words & Wordplay - October 2006

It has become a pet hate of mine to read the way people write in short form as if they are writing a SMS text message. Here one can write in full length and proper English, or maybe they simply don't know how to write in correct English? Is it just me?

In the film, "A Walk in the Clouds" directed by Alfonso Arau, a woman goes to the grape field called 'Las Nubes' which stands for "the clouds".

John Steinbeck wrote "The Grapes of Wrath"
What did grapes mean in that context?

Do grapes ever have any connect with marriage or love?

What meaning do you know for 'grapes'?

I want to know which is the correct spelling; window sill or window cill? This is not a test, just that I have seen it spelt in both ways, and wondered if there is a different spelling purely for carpentry terms?

I see people misspell this word all the time. It doesn't seem like it should be hard to keep track of how to spell "lose" but many, many people spell it "loose." Do you have any idea why this is such a common error?

Homonym = words that has the same pronunciation and spelling as another word, but has a different meaning...e.g the word:
Bow= the kind you make with a ribbon
Bow=the kind you use with an arrow......the one who gets the most earns their 10 points.

It's from the Declaration of Independence...

"Accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed."
