i beleve the reason for all the words that have simular meanings is so we can utterly confuse ourselfs with different dilects, heck the north, south, east, west, and centeral US all have different dilects using a slightly different set of English words. Did you know for instence that some highschools and collages take British english as an exceptable forign language? [img]tongue.gif[/img]
