Word choice between’stem from’ and ‘ignite’
I am composing my Statement of Purpose. Someone could possibly answer my questions here?
Who is the best education personality in the world?
Why is ” is ignited by ” better on this sentence?
What’s your opinion about us as an individual?
How strong must one characterize a passion for education? To say your passion “stems from” an incident produces a image of your interest growing in your passion like a plant from seed. To be saying that it was fire implies that your passion is like a fire, and this is a much more dramatic and intense
characterization.
STEM
verb
- originate in
or be caused by Originate is
synonymous with Arouse, Fire, Kindle and: INDITUDE verb arouse or
inflame
(an
emotion or situation): “the words ignited new fury in him” Amused verb arouse
If you inflame passion, you are the stem of said passion.
I don’t understand
semantics. That is very semantical.
