![]() I got 3 wrong.
I have NEVER used "whose" in a sentence before. I did not even know such word existed o.o I have NEVER used i.e or e.g in a sentence so I did not knew what those actually meant o.o I have NEVER used "bored by" in a sentence ever o.o I guess you learn something new everyday.

![]() The one about i.e and e.g is mean. Giving examples IS giving information because it's illustrating to the reader a related application of something. Words like anomalous and bizarre do have differences, but giving examples is giving information.
I just find a lot of ambiguity in grammar that is never actually explained well. It's like how someone says an implication p->q in logic is the same as (not)p OR q, when they could simply just say it's a statement stating either the premise is false or the conclusion is true. |

![]() I'm talking about explaining it to someone who is starting out and/or doesn't know the clear distinction between something so the person doesn't just go by gut reactions

![]() i.e. -> in other words
e.g. -> for example "I like primary colors, i.e. red, blue, yellow" is the most correct. It's because if you swap it out with 'in other words', it turns it into a non ambiguous explanation of what they like. 'For example' would imply there are more than red, blue, and yellow. Can't remember the other one, but it was probably more along the lines of using i.e. would mean there are only those things when there could be more than is listed. |

![]() Quote:
i.e. = id est = that is ~ "by that I mean" e.g. = examplum gratia = given the example ~ "for example" AM = ante meridiem = before mid-day PM = post meridiem = after mid-day And so on. If you know what i.e. and e.g. literally mean, it should be obvious which of the two to use.
