Thanks for the compliment. FYI, I read a lot in English (science fiction, for instance), and I studied by correspondence in English (last 4 years high school with American School, BS with Grantham College of Engineering).
However, every now and then I still encounter a word which seems to be in common use, but which I can't identify. Perhaps it is a lack of
conversational English.

Difference in opinions hath cost many millions of lives: for instance, whether flesh be bread, or bread be flesh; whether whistling be a vice or a virtue; whether it be better to kiss a post, or throw it into the fire... (from Gulliver's Travels)
