If “latter” comes first, and “former” comes second, what comes third? Or fourth? Cambridge (ref'd prev 2 edit) is the source of The English Language as we know it from the Oxford/Cambridge press. It's an offshoot of one of the oldest still-existing universities in the world (c. 1300 at least), Oxford, and was created to get away from the "riff-raff" which was presumably Oxford. It's the elitests' elitist university. They all used to know Latin &/or Greek and they basically invented words as they needed them, because they (Oxbridge) were the master editors of The Dictionary. Harvard & MIT have nodded to Cambridge University by renaming their suburb of Boston to "Cambridge". |

If “latter” comes first, and “former” comes second, what comes third? Or fourth? What I want them to do, Mark. What I need them to do. I've run into this problem when discussing things with friends and professionals, sometimes you just need a third word after the "latter, former" series. People are getting smarter, Mark, we need these things. |
