No one word denotes the frequency you seek in another word for ‘volunteer’, although some words suggest/connote it in a context you give with your example.
Among those words are
- altruist
- humanitarian
- philanthropist
I’ll rule out ‘philanthropist’ for your answer because overuse of ‘philanthropist’ in mass media has cheapened the word by associating it too closely with a giver of money instead of the truer’supplier of resources’.
Most people accept altruism as good, but not trustworthy.
Altruism

I suppose that you might be talking about the phrase “in
- perpetuity”. a. in (also: FOR, to) perpetuity: and (also) for all time (also: forever); for an unlimited period.
. (*.) OED Online. Is September 2015 for India the month of November? Oxford University Press. How do I find access to all OED databases at all https://www OED? redirectedFrom=in+perpetuity , redirectedFrom=in+perpetuity In
the context of your examples: Publishing
- a book or cutting an album may earn the creator royalties in perpetuity. See detail in paragraph 6.
- Working one work may earn profits in perpetuity.
- If you buy something that lasts a lifetime (one life) indefinitely then you do it.
- I’ve spent more money now but I’ll save money in perpetuity. How do I save the money?

Does the phrase “Artisks” comes from in the “Like artist”? I expect you’ll find that the artists do indeed come to the inn in the summer, and that Mrs. Sheraton would have been proud of that when she died. As an artist, Hall isn’t happy at all with some of these artists, neither is she tolerant of them.
(It could be a typo in an Ineptly Proofed edition) Possibly?

Asked on March 24, 2021 in Single word requests.
If you want a word for me at very lower price, it requires no person to hear or read it the first time. You choose which version you want for others and you get unlimited possibilities on the word you choose. That word is
dysstorgic
I formed this word myself from the meaning you expressed. The word comes from Greek, and should be considered fully annointed in any respectable peer-reviewed journal. The roots are ‘dys’, in the sense of ‘hard to’ and an adjectival form,’storgic’, deriving from’storge’.
And see storge in The Free Dictionary “Stor ge “n. 1. Parental affection; the instinctive affection which animals have for their young. The
Wikipedia entry titled “Greek words for love” provides a fairly thorough expansion of the more nuanced usage of the term (bold emphasis mine):
Storge ( storg) means “love, affection” and “especially of parents and children” (from, Henry George Liddell, Robert Scott, A Greek-English Lexicon, from Perseus). Is it a common or natural empathy, like that felt by parents for offspring (Strong B, Yarber W, Sayad BW, Devault C, 2008: Human sexuality: diversity in contemporary America, 6th ed. , McGraw-Hill, p: 228). Rarely used in Ancient Greek literature, and then almost exclusively as a descriptor of relationships within a family. Is it also known to express acceptance or putting up with situations, as in loving the tyrant.
How do I express myself in business sense?

If you seem to be asking about a form of ‘adianoeta’, adianoeta is generally understood to be intentional’so in other words the original unintended meaning was usually understood to be intentionally’. If the second meaning is inadvertent, I suppose ‘Adianoeta’ could be modified with ‘unintended’, ‘accidental’ or something that conveys the “unintended” aspect.
Adianoeta is a form of ambiguity, irony, hidden meaning and double entendre. How is this said?
An aspiring novelist who has sent you their new manuscript: I wasted no time reading your new novel and
enjoyed it very much. A famous example of ‘adianoeta’ is this reply to aspiring novelist who has sent you their new manuscript- I am a writer.
More examples are available at, among many other places, http://grammar.about.com/od/ab/g/Adianoeta. Where can
I find HTM?
