“immigrant” and “emigrant”
“imitation cheese” and “non-dairy alternative cheese” (evidently the latter costs about 10 times as much)</p>
<p>Immigrant: entering country of the perspective view.
emigrant: leaving country of the perspective view.
I think??</p>
<p>something like that…according to one source, at least…each of my English teachers has defined the pair differently, so…I am in favor of removing “emigrant” from the English language, as the vast majority of us use the word “immigrant” for both cases, and they sound basically the same as it is…</p>
<p>immigrate to; emigrate from</p>
<p>@Knavish: This is grammatically correct: I, an American, am going to emigrate to Australia.</p>
<p>I thought we were going to have fun, not discuss grammar :(</p>
<p>What is the difference between:
acting and impersonating
a black colored pencil and a regular pencil</p>
<p>what’s the difference between disney and pixar?fascism and nazism?anorexics(sp?) and bulimics? slim and skinny? fat and chunky? </p>
<p>Here’s one, what’s the similarity between angelina jolie and julia roberts?</p>
<p>“fat and chunky?”
One is a good label for food, the other isn’t :p</p>
<p>“anorexics(sp?) and bulimics?”
Anorexics don’t eat. Bulimics eat, then throw it all up. The result is the same.</p>
<p>that’s basically it, but i always thougth calling a fat person chunky was less offensive. here’s another one, similairty between “supermodels” and nicole kidman.</p>
<p>“i always thougth calling a fat person chunky was less offensive”</p>
<p>If you want to be PC (or if you want to avoid getting off on the wrong foot with them), call them “full-figured”</p>
<p>“I’m going to emigrate from US to Australia” is better.</p>
<p>Anyway, I was just trying to show perspective.</p>
<p>how about effect and affect?</p>
<p>Affect is a verb, effect is the noun.</p>
<p>Effect can also be used as a verb meaning “to cause to begin, as a change”: “The Triangle Fire effected reform in the design of sweathouses.”</p>
