Dubbing Decks
Gary,
Yeah (whoops, there goes my English), I originally used "emigrate" in
my note. Then, foolishly and on a whim, I decided to run the text through
Proper Grammar. Comment from the program:
"'Emigrate' means 'leave one's native country'. 'Immigrate' means
'move to a new country'. 'Migrate' means 'move from place to place'."
"Immigrate", as defined above, better reflected my intended meaning
since I'm more of a half-full than half-empty kinduv guy. However, I
agree that "immigrate" does sound awkward in that phrase. Could this be
yet another case of colloquial usage overtaking meaning?
Thinking of 'grating to the U.K. 8-)…
