Understanding Difficult English Words by agegae aegaeg is a document available to read on EtoBox.
Literally means something truly happened and not in an imagined or exaggerated sense, though it is commonly misused. The Oxford English Dictionary now includes an informal definition allowing its use for emphasis. Irregardless is not a word because it contains a double negative; regardless is the correct term meaning without regard. Disinterested means unbiased whereas uninterested means not interested at all. Enormity refers to acts of extreme evil, not size, so phrases like "the enormity of the situation"
