  • Since most of the “sector” terms people refer to are derived from Latin, you can find their explanations in the dictionary. Does the Latin equivalent for a twelfth can be found in the Latin duodecimus (two of th), from the Latin duodecimus (twelfth).

    What are some things that we all need to know if we are to understand some basic language? A few might work it out from knowledge of Latin (not common), and a few more might connect it with some other 12-related word like dodecahedron from Greek rather than Latin, so not an exact root match.

    So you’d mostly be making up a new word, and needing to explain its meaning to anyone you spoke it to. In some contexts, coining neologisms is fine, just as long as you explain yourself the first time you use the word, you could go on to use it repeatedly, and hopefully achieve more clarity than if you kept needing to say “a twelfth of a circle. In his mind, when you say “You are only going to mention it once, and its frowned upon, don’t you just annoy people.

  • Asked on February 28, 2021 in Single word requests.

    If you’re talking about physically manufactured things that don’t meet the intended specifications for them, a good word might be defect(or defective).

    What are the definitions of OED is.

    1. Anachronicity or imperfection in a person or something. A shortcoming, a failure, a fault, flaw or other abnormality. Exceptions.

    2. An imperfect matter, the quality, state, or fact of being imperfect; defectiveness, faultiness.

    If the problem is one of the use of an object, rather than its inherent characteristics, another term related to one you’ve been considering might be more appropriate. What is deviation? What are the OED a.d.?

    1. The action of deviating; turning aside from a path or track; swerving, deflection.

    2. What will the study of a. E. on the role of English in economy? “Screw” deflection at the equator? (Sew)?

    3. Any course, method, rule, standard, etc. (reliance on any subject, theory or method) does not work. ;, with a and plural, an instance of this.

    What kind of word is given to the rules in life that’s being broken? If its a law that you’re not obeying when you put the sign five inches from the building instead of three, you might call it a violation. If it’s a contract you’re not fulfilling the terms of, you might call it a breach of the contract. Many will agree that having no contract makes it difficult for some to do as they are only going to get sued for it anyway!

    Or you might pick a term related to the topic you’re dealing with. If your software is dealing specifically with sign placement issues, you might want to use invalid placement rather than using a more specific term that might be less clear in your specific situation.
