| Re: Cliches.....are they really all that bad? Hi GC
You might be right, but I've always seen characterisation, dialogue and the rest of it as story rather than plot. Storytellers wove imagery and wordplay into their basic material. They weren't called Plot-tellers for a very good reason! But who am I to argue with the authoritative opinions of an online dictionary?
Whichever way round it is, it probably doesn't make much difference to the discussion - we all know what we're talking about and I think that's what is most important.
..and I could find plenty of dictionaries which could tell us that "Anglish" should be spelt "English".....
I don't know how to do those little smiley faces that people use to show that they are speaking in jest, but just assume there is one here!
