Is “Jew” gender-neutral? Jew is only considered offensive if taken to be offensive. A slang word for African-Americans (Blacks), is nigger. But the way to say Blacks in Spanish is los Negros. I don't see how that is any more offensive than nigger if it is meant to be offensive. Wh should a Jewish person be offended when called a Jew if that is what he is? IMHO, a Jewish person who does not want to be called a Jew is like a tree not wanting to be considered part of a forest. For more on this, see what Mark writes in his answer and comments there. |

Is “Jew” gender-neutral? @simchona - I consider myself to be Jewish, Judaistic and a Jew. Type "define:jewish" into Google and it will say relating to or denoting Jews or Judaism. I think Jewishness, Judaism, and Jews are all one and the same. |

Commas and “but” Can you try using yet instead of but. You can begin a sentence with yet, and yet can also be used in place of but. |

Question mark usage/position when sentence ends with a declarative quotation? What about the following case: (et al.). Is the period needed after "al" or isn't it? |

Can vowels be combined in English without forming diphthongs? Is naïve with the umlaut ( ¨ ) considered the ideal English spelling, or is it just a vestigial relic that has survived since it entered English from the French language? |

Is 'but rather' considered grammatically correct? The "but rather" construct is a little confusing to me. |

Et cetera vs Et al @MehperC.Palavuzlar, in Latin, when a group of males and females is combined, the neutral plural form is not used, but rather the masculine is. |
