Words: i.e., e.g.
I've long known that "i.e." stands for the Latin id est or "that is," but I just looked up "e.g." to learn it stands for exempli gratia -- that is, "for example."

Twerpette
Twerpette (named for my dachshund Molley, the original twerpette or "goofy girl") seeks to tweak the long nose of life with humor, affection, and gravitas. Topics include dating and relationships, faith and spirituality, language and writing, journalism, technology, arts, academe, whimsy and humanity. Cheeky and tweaky, Twerpette is rated PG13 for mature language and themes. This weblog began May 10, 2005. Copyright 2005-2016 Steve Deyo.
