    carry someone against his will upside down such that each limb is held a person Wiliam

    Safire of the NY Times quotes a dictionary as saying, the manner in which

    four or more policemen carry a drunken or turbulent man to the station-house. Is a member of staff held to each side after slammed face downwards with fingertips on each shoulder, while others stay above knees? Often another officer beats time on the recalcitrant hero’s posteriors. This is

    Merriam-Webster’s dictionary. Please note that it is not a dictionary! What com currently

    forward So the meaning may have shifted somewhat to less require being held aloft, but it’s still probably the best single-word choice.

  • Asked on March 3, 2021 in Other.

    The most common word choice is “hot” but the most common way is not always the best way. I have had the following conversation with many of the native English speakers.

    Is it a Friend that is hot?

    Do you mean warm or spicy?

    Spicy is probably second-most common but is also used for foods heavily seasoned with many spices (except chili). I don’t like spicy. And more accurate words, like “pungent” and “piquant” are expected, but they are somewhat marked except in technical

    discussions.
