My example is a slightly different structure? Your first sentence could be rewritten as “He spoke not clearly and correctly” to match your second sentence. Which may be parsed either as “…not clear and correctly” or “””, The same way your first paragraph could be parsed either as “The film is and instructive.” or “The film is not . “The
film is neither interesting nor instructive”. Or “The film is uninteresting but instructive.” What
is it like to be a girl?

Asked on March 19, 2021 in Single word requests.
Misunderstood terms often come to mind.
To beg a question means to assume the conclusion of
an argument—a type of circular reasoning. Often in indirect way such that its presence within a premise of the argument is hidden or at least not easily apparent. This is an informal fallacy, in which an arguer includes the conclusion to be proved within a premise of the argument.
In a statement about the existence of geese in our current state or existence, we should start with the facts that these geese are relatively easily scared.
Which idiom can help to explain a true fact
or a factoid (permanently)? The term was coined in 1973 as a neologism by US sen. Norman Mailer to mean a “piece of information that becomes accepted as a fact even though it’s not actually true, or an invented fact believing to be true because it appears in print.” Since its creation in 1973 the term has evolved from its original meaning, in common usage, and has assumed other meanings, especially being used to describe a brief or trivial item of news. So it is a factoid that “factoid” means something or someone totally true.
Is “factoid” meant “a small fact, but its original meaning was false “each time people did it.” Such as the fact that geese are easily scared.

Asked on March 7, 2021 in Synonyms.
I’ll use the word child, feminism when I think of “kid” = child.
Can both of these sentences (and the original “son” sentence) be construed
as sounding negative coming from the wrong type of person?
In this case the “correct” answer is likely just to use her name.
