[QUOTE="RobGMN, post: 8905519, member: 683408"] I quoted it directly from your post, you dimwit. Show me were ANY definition of verbatim indicates "sentence-for-sentence" is required for a quote to be verbatim. I have shown YOU a definition and explanation that shows it could be SINGLE word. Walk the walk, and show a proof of your claim. Oh? Then tell us who the moron is that just posted this nonsense: "It is the WHOLE sentence. The fact that it is the WHOLE sentence is what makes it VERBATIM." I will guarantee it was you, unless it is not Michael making the posts I am quoting. Ironic that you post the definition, but don't understand the definition. "Word-for-word" is NOT "sentence-for-sentence". Do you know the difference between a word, and a sentence? Still waiting for you to cite a source tgat says a quote must be an entire sentence, paragraph, chapter, or even book. Every definition out there says "word for word". Go ahead and show that proof. I correct yet again. Is this 15 times since yesterday? Again: To be a quote, it must be verbatim. That's the rule. A quote does not have to be every single word from the source. That is the rule. Combine those rules, and you get: A partial sentence can be a quote, as long as no words are altered, removed, or have their positions changed. THIS is a verbatim quote, by the very definition of a quote: [I]"quote that one word you have a verbatim" -ThxOne[/I] You can fight it all you want, but neither your opinions, nor your feelings, nor your beliefs, change the rules of our language. Stop failing with such confidence. It's giving me douche chills for you. [/QUOTE]
