Asked on December 22, 2021 in American english.
Vowels fluoresce in English – especially between accents. Margaret, Mary, marry and merry are three totally different vowels whereas I keep coming across things about how to pronounce things that make distinction between vowels I consider identical. I like the sight of an elderly liar. If all vowels were replaced with the same vowel sound, most people would be able to understand it. But if that was the case, how would the English language be comprehensible and not confusing? I grew up in Guernesey where most vowels became “awe”.

Complete or incomplete, signifies something whole or a complete. Completed means done.
A lot of the meaning overlaps, but I think completed gives a better sense of accomplishment, though it really depends on how you’re using your
word.
