Some more education for you Rob,

Omitting parts of a quotation​

Use an ellipsis (three dots) to omit or remove parts of a quote and show where you've removed text. Don't change the meaning of the quote when you do this. For example:


Gross (1996, p.137) points out that in the language it is (open direct quotation marks) "not only in the vocabulary…(dot dot dot), but also the grammar" (close direct quotation marks) that influences how and what we understand.

So put those ellipsis in that sig where you left off the word your.

You're not going to argue "semantics" when the very basis of the argument is your inability to understand the definition of "verbatim", and what a verbatim quote is?
semantics - the branch of linguistics and logic concerned with meaning

You might as well say you're not going to argue HP when it comes to which engine will make a car faster.

Damn, you are so lost it'd be funny if it wasn't so pathetic.

Seriously, go back to school. Reeducate yourself.

Goddamn, I may have to modify my signature. "I'm not going to argue semantics", when we are literally arguing the MEANING of words.

You died on the hill pretty spectacularly.

So, the definition of "*****" changes if it's a human ***** versus a monkey *****, or a pig *****?
Interesting.

And there you go. A ***** is a ***** is a ***** in the eyes of the libs. Pure delusion.

No hill, you are just not capable of not arguing. Even when you are technically wrong.

So you just misquoted me on purpose then?

It's a paraphrase. The quotes are to show it wasn't an expression of my own thought.

But that's probably too advanced for you, even though you should recognize the words.

So it's a paraphrase... to show it was neither one of our thoughts? What was your goal by posting that?
I know what the conversation was that led up to the statement that you partially quoted and are now saying is a paraphrase even though you aren't using different words, you just left off one word and posted your partial quote out of context from the original conversation. So again, what was your goal... what were you seeking to accomplish by posting what you posted?

Look at you, trying so hard to show you didn't die on your hill.
The hill where you started off saying that a quote must be every single word written or spoken, then went to it being paragraphs, then only sentences, then finally only part of a sentence.

You died at the very beginning of your argument.

Good work!

None of this post is true and you are back to being a bold faced liar. If you are to ignorant to comprehend anything that you have to argue constantly then YOU are the problem. Liar.

Whatever, liar.

 

[RobGMN Premium Member]

Whatever, liar.

THERE you go.
Deny the facts.
Declare yourself correct in the face of irrefutable proof that you are wrong.
Pretend that you are correct, when you are not.

The M.O. of the right wing.
Pathetic.
