A 'relationship' can now be described
as non-labelled. This is a label
which I like, having spent my life
puzzling over abstract labelling.
But why do we hang on to the fatuous word
relationship ?
Also in today's online newspaper
I came upon the word overage.
Not over-age. Overage
is the amount over which something
is supposed or expected to be –
such as two kilograms over weight
or over-weight – or overweight.
So I suppose (or guess as they say in the USA)
that there is underage,
which is not the same as under-age.
