Do you also hate it when a question is worded so it could mean 2 different things?

Question

This is what I mean. I just read a question about a girl that says her husband is unhappy because she does not provide the "finacial stability" that he needs. Most people that answered assumed that he expects her to make all the money and to give it to him, or some variation of it. My problem is that finacial stability could also mean that she is spending to much money, and he is unhappy because of it. She could have worded the question that way to justify her bad habit and make herself feel better when everyone on Yahoo! supported her.

Do you hate those special wordings? Can you give some examples?

conundrum: She said provide finacial stabilty not financial provider. English is a very specific language, that is why lawyers make so much money.

BTW she never used the word provide, I did.

Answer 1

she said provide which mean contribute to or give...sounds clear to me..

Then why are you confusing us with your wording of her question. Copy and paste is all it takes to keep from confusing people..one word can change an entier sentence

Answer 2

Very exciting question. the respond has to do with the "financial equipment of language". there's a careful stability in language between minimum attempt to be taught/use and optimal means for advice. It somewhat is sensible to have a small variety of words/syllables and assign many meanings to them, in case you are able to dodge confusion. In English, a small variety of syllables (possibly 12,000), a severe variety of words (merely over a million million)[a million], and a pragmatic minimize on observe length (maximum *root words* are merely a million-2 syllables long) potential that an substantial variety of words would be reported precisely an identical. so a approaches as your observe: in accordance to English spelling, it would probable be written "quop", which...is already a observe [2], or has already been used as a observe (it already has 2 or 3 meanings). If for some reason you wanted to pronounce your observe "change/swop", that's...already a observe. in certainty, you would be shocked to be taught that there is probable some restrict of: (a million) practicality: the syllable is complicated or painful to pronounce (2) phonology: the syllable sounds too very reminiscent of yet another syllable, or "disappears" whilst pronounced at as quickly as, lazily, or around different syllables OR (3) taboo: the syllable sounds too very reminiscent of a "impolite" or "stupid" observe or sound ...with maximum new syllables (no longer words) which you will make up.

Answer 3

"Framing" the question has long been the preferred method of furthering an agenda, particularly among the political class. This disease has unfortunately spread to the general population. By offering a "choice" of two - but generally only two - options, a feeling of freedom and empowerment can be falsely conveyed. But the truth is neither answer suits the answerer, but instead suits the questioner. For further information, go to grad school and study marketing.

Answer 4

Here's one I saw yesterday...or what I recall of it...."My husband keeps petting my p*ussy. I'm afraid he will get bit..."
You get the idea depending on where ones mind is.
Your example though just makes me think that people always like to put a spin in their own favor...you know us women, we don't like to admit that we spend too much of his hard earned money...some would just rather cut him right through the balls and tell him that he isn't an adequate supporter or play dumb and blame him when he confronts us about the financial stability of the relationship.
