Antonym of “recommend” "deprecate" does also have the additional meaning of "this isn't guaranteed to work in the future, stop using it now and get used to the correct alternative". So it's more a subset of the answer... Still, +1 because I see it so often (x_x) |

“Me and my wife” or “my wife and me” And yet for this sentence, putting "me" second sounds rather awkward... |

Is there a season's greeting for Halloween? "Happy Halloween" is the standard here, but I do find it odd - I expect Halloween to be scary... (But nothing else I've heard sounds "right") |

“Fluctuates widely” or “fluctuates wildly” @Caleb: "so if widely can mean large and irregular" - that's what I was attempting to describe with the "punnet square" paragraph. If both apply, choose the one you want to draw attention to |

“Fluctuates widely” or “fluctuates wildly” @Jefromi: Hm true. I think that deserves an addendum |

“Fluctuates widely” or “fluctuates wildly” I've never understood the fascination with those when looking for correctness. Authors generally like artistic license when it comes to wordplay... |

Is it acceptable to mix Latin with English? "Use it if you want to sound educated" - or to sound pretentious... |
