Asked on December 22, 2021 in Single word requests.
Polypods are defined as having several legs. They are easily recognizable by an usage. Can anybody prove that they are polypods? If it’s a polypod, why? From Oxford :
adjective
Zoology
Having many feet or similar appendages, particularly denoting a phase of insect larval development characterized by a segmented abdomen with rudimentary or functional appendages. Constructors of the abdomen must assume the abdomen of the insect.
Could polypedal be applied to robots and autonomous systems?

Asked on December 20, 2021 in Single word requests.
Your role appears to be that of Editor. Most editor books, every single day, the only acknowledgement only comes from the author – who now is deceased.
I sound like you may wish to include a little story in an editor’s note or a foreword, in which case it seems sensible to put your name as editor on the title page as well.

Asked on March 27, 2021 in American english.
I’d barely notice it in an otherwise well-written email, particularly a person whose name suggested that they weren’t a native writer of English (yours ll do that IRL).
I’ve seen all sorts of punctuation errors from people for whom English is their first and only language, even in writing that’s serious enough to be worth checking. I think the single greatest chance of the point being made is if I was proofreading it as a
co-author.

Asked on March 26, 2021 in Meaning.
Certainly, it can be temporary. When a car starts to stop at a stop sign, what is stopping it? What if you stop working and then stop cooking to take lunch break? (you stop cooking with no food then etc.)
If a mother doesn’t smoke while pregnant but starts again she is sometimes described as having stopped doing during pregnancy and now gives birth to a son.
Why stop is more likely to imply not restarting than give up? Though in the case of smoking everyone knows it’s hard to give up; the intention to stop forever defines what’s happening more than whether or not it’s successful.
