There are better examples. The problem with resign and re-sign is that they both involve a change in work circumstance........they aren't used in an entirely different nature. I know the difference. It's mainly just that the word is the same but have different meanings Quote

dgrochester55 Posted March 7 Posted March 7 (edited) I am concerned if the Bills lose, but if they "loose", what they do behind closed doors is none of my business. Edited March 7 by dgrochester55 1 Quote

"I can't believe we resigned Taylor Rapp." No. "Re-sign" means to sign again. "Resign" means to voluntarily leave a job. It means the opposite of re-sign. Cheers, Bills Fans, to re-signing our best players and winning the Super Bowl. 🍻 My OCD agrees with you 100%. 😂 Quote

Or do you want it both ways? It’s not about being stuck up, it’s about knowing the difference. I almost always just ignore that stuff here, but if someone is sensitive about it, maybe that says something? 🤷♂️ I’m just funny about that stuff. If I see I’ve made a typo, I’ll generally fix it. It bothers me, personally. If other people don’t care, that is their prerogative. 43 minutes ago, Matt_In_NH said: For tomorrow can we cover "our" vs "are"? I’m sensing a pop quiz in our future. .

People that care about such things, just are nit picking. Baecuse I cna tpye wrods ni ayn oredr adn yuo cna stlil rade tihs. So certainly people can understand they ment re-sign instead of resign!
