There was one thing that irked me in the House’s dialogs in each episode. Well it’s really more unsettling than it is irksome. It’s the use of the word nauseous to mean nauseated.
She’s feeling nauseous.
No she’s not, unless she feels that she’s so ugly that she’s downright disgusting (not disgustED) that other people are nauseated by her being nauseous. (or maybe just because she just smells like puke and feces) Get my drift?
Now I do realize that probably by this generation, the word has already evolved to mean the same thing, and is commonly accepted as an alternative to the correct usage. I think it’s sad though that one has to degrade the quality of different aspects in life simply because they become “commonplace.”
That mentality is the very same reason why values/morals/etc. continue to degrade.
But who am I to talk? After all, I always tend to forget putting an H when I spell “whether.”
