Then I edit it and upload greater ingredient so a minimum of no remember if this is resolved in the imply time I even have my small answer there instead of completely having wasted my time.

Answer 3

I usually skip them.

I don't like cut and paste, and I don't like talking too much about something.

I love the phrase that says "the best of speech is what is short and informative".

Just my opinion.


Peace.

Answer 4

Yes
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Yes is a common English word indicating agreement or acceptance. It is the opposite of no.

Synonyms

In colloquial language, and especially in spoken English, "yes" is often replaced by "yeah", "yea", "yep" (with various spellings, including "yup"), "uh-huh", "yah" and "aye". Regionalisms for "yes" include: "ah" and "are" (used in the English Midlands and South-West, respectively), "abuli" and "chupper" (used only in some Australian regions), and "ayuh", (generally used only in Maine). "Aye" is more common in Scotland and northern England. It may also be used in meetings: "All who agree say 'aye'". "Aye" is also a nautical way of saying "yes". "Aye, Aye" means "I hear the command, I understand it, and will obey it". "Yea" is archaic.

Aye

"Aye", sometimes misconstrued as slang, is standard speech in Scotland and much of northern England. It is not stigmatised nor spoken by solely a substratum of Scottish society.

In a nautical context, it does not typically denote "yes" as an answer to a yes or no question, but rather is an acknowledgement of an order."yes" also means to do.

Etymology

The word "yes" comes from the Old English ȝése, ȝíse, ȝýse (pronounced with a palatized g which was represented by a yogh), with the literal meaning of so be it!. From ȝéa + sī, the present subjunctive of to be (be it!). Géa, (possibly meaning thus), is from the Proto-Germanic *ja or *je, with the meaning of yes or truly.

Notes on usage

* In English, "yes" is also used to answer a negative question or statement, an example of "yes" used to disagree with a question or statement is:
The questions "You don’t want it, do you?" and "Don’t you want it?" can be answered by "yes" if the respondent does want the item, and "no" if he or she does not. However, other words are used when the answer needs to be clearly delineated, as in "Of course I want it," or "No, not at all." It can be confusing when someone asks a question that only contains a negative statement. For example, "You don't want it?" can be answered "yes" or "no" and could be confused as meaning either yes or no. Many languages use a different word for this purpose. For example, German has "doch" for this purpose (rather than "ja"), French uses "si" (rather than "oui") and the mainland Scandinavian languages (Danish, Swedish and Norwegian) use "jo" ("jau" in Nynorsk).

Answer 5

I skip them too. If I wanted to read an article from Wikipedia, I'd just look there.

Answer 6

I rarely do, unless something catches my eye. If they site scripture, I just give it a thumbs down so it will go away. If we wanted a long quotation, we'd email them.

Answer 7

I automatically give them a thumbs down just to minimize them....even if I agree with them...and for some reason my answer is always just after them.......

Answer 8

I do sometimes, depending on the subject.

Answer 9

Only if I'm really bored.

Answer 10

No I don't.
