bcguy42 38594 Report post Posted July 30, 2011 There has been a lot of activity this week revolving around words and their effect on people and situations. This caused me to remember a video I saw a while back. Give this one a look. It runs 1 min 48 sec. I'm guessing that around 1:26 you will say "Oh" or some such. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest tr*****e Report post Posted July 30, 2011 I saw this a while back already. I'm normally not prone to crying, but I wish it came easier to me when I watch this. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mutau 2516 Report post Posted July 30, 2011 Well done bcguy42. Words in themselves are simply a mixture of vowels and consonants. However, when one puts them together they then take on different meanings. If one then adds a voice to speak the words, they can take on different connotations through intonations, pauses or emphatic speech. Words can be beautiful little snippets of nothingness with but a light airy feeling to them, or they can be downright nasty little buggers when improperly used. Remember the dictum: write many times, edit often, read many times, edit again, send only once. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
