>>>Well ... yes and no. "uninterested" means "not interested" as in "... in your topic", whereas "disinterested" means "impartial", as in "... as to which team wins".

>>>The point I was making is that there are many English word pairs like this that are used erroneously.

>>And then there are pairs which aren't pairs, just look so. Just try to weed these out. I took mostly verbs, and a few others that I couldn't resist. Not quite sure about some of them - does the second word mean repetition of the first in some way or not.

>bar - rebar (what's rebar?)

I think it's something American... some sort of iron bar. Don't know exactly what.

>bus - rebus (what's rebus?)

"A puzzle where you decode a message consisting of pictures representing syllables and words"

>enforce - reenforce (I think you mean re-inforce

Sounds so, but I found "reenforce" in the dictionary as well.

>face - reface (what's reface?)

"Put a new facing on, as of a garment"

>sister - resister (as in electrical - it's resistor)

"A disputant who advocates reform"

>tort - retort (what's a tort)

"Any wrongdoing for which and action for damages may be brought"... probably another American legal term.

>Nice selection of words. Many you need to blame the French for again. They use "re" in many words and don't mean "again". e.g. "retour" means "turn".
