How to read “E = (mc)²” so as not to mistake for “E = mc²” This sounds best to me. Using 'the quantity' as above throws off the order of the equation. |

Does “so far, so good” carry a negative connotation? @John's idea of the speaker avoiding any prediction seems to me the essential part of this phrase. The tech is perfectly happy with the results through to the present, but for fear of [jinx/lawsuit/ethics/etc] is unwilling to state categorically that the future is positive. |

Meaning of “ball off ”? As unfortunate as it is for standard english, 'ballin' is not 'bail in', but rather just 'ballin', so I'm forced to down vote this as incorrect. |

Difference between “in to” and “into” Just for the sake of clarity, in this particular case, into would be the correct choice. As for pronunciation...in my experience (American English), one would say into at a faster clip relative to in to. Otherwise, there's no difference. |

Level of illiteracy, ______ of innumeracy? I don't mean to be snarky, but that really wasn't my question. I know both phrasings can be used, but I was interested in whether one rings more true than the other. If you detect no difference, of feel the question is too based on opinion for se, say so and I'll be very appreciative for the input. |
