Our English Language Is Full Of Shortcomings"Hey, you on the sidewalk, be careful!" I yelled. I'm not sure who was more surprised to hear my outburst: The guy on the sidewalk or my wife beside me in our Jeep. When I explained why I had called out to this unwitting passerby, she patiently pointed out that I didn't understand the intent of the "Caution Pedestrians" sign. I countered that I had always obeyed road sign instructions such as "Merge" or "Yield," but she said it wasn't the same thing. It seems our English language is full of shortcomings that must be addressed. Here are a few suggestions that will hopefully make it into the next update of the dictionary.
