Jodekss: obscurity doesn't only mean darkness, it may mean snarlness, hard, harduous, hachulean, obfuscating, zag, zig-zag. So let's say it means OBFUSCATING then I think it would match. Your adjudicating behind reticency on DECIMATION is still becoming something of kvetching. Please , do explain how a Thesis would enjoy DECIMATION ; to you, what does DECIMATION mean? |

Elliotwiz1: your question was about get.in not get.on .... Car is correct, e.g 'get in the car'not in da sense of that friend though you are rice too. Dat was in da form of authority or command but I was asking about the right preposition for da means of transportation. As in: THEY 'GOT OFF' THEIR BICYCLE, WE 'ALIGHT FROM' OR 'GET OUT OF' A CARRIAGE OR A MOTOR CAR, WE 'GET ON' OR 'OFF' THE TRAM, THE BUS, ETC. |
