[QUOTE="AmandaBarbarian, post: 9061271, member: 7042010"] I had more then one teacher that if me or another student would say "I have a question to axe" or "Can I axe you a question" would make us restate it as "I have a question to ask" or "Can I ask you a question" before we could move forward. I also had way too many teachers that would say "aint isn't a word" even when we proved them wrong by finding it in dictionaries and giving full definitions. the teacher understood what the request or statement was, they just didn't like the words used to make it. I feel lik you and others here are doing the same. why? "I want to look for more detail" and "I use perception" will almost always mean the same thing. The times they don't you can take in the context and figure it out. SO yeah if 100 time someone calls for a skill by name and 10 of those times you need to ask for clarity that makes sense to me, but if it's 50 times, or 80 times or all 100 times that seems like it is not just you needing clarity but you policing what people are saying and how. I am trying, but to be perfectly honest, I can't even imagine having fun at a table and making friends when I am told "No, you have to say that a different way" [/QUOTE]
