I have been employed as a programmer-type since 1983, but always in non-IT positions. My principal interests are in applications, data analysis and reporting using SAS software on Windows and UNIX environments. I also am quite fluent with the Teradata and Oracle database, especially with respect to data extraction using SQL.

What's a big-vocabulary word for someone with a big vocabulary? Okay, I'll delete the comment. That was just one of several "hits" from a web search. Just curious why the answer got so many down-votes, but I visit here rarely. |

Everyone Else's Lives Oops, sorry. I think of all these sites as "Stack Overflow". I'll be more careful next time. |

Everyone Else's Lives Welcome to Stack Overflow! Can you give an example of a sentence where such a phrase might be used? I cannot think of one myself. Just edit the question itself; don't add a comment. |

How did the practice of identifying an object after using a pronoun evolve? It's interesting to me that I only hear this structure used on Brittish content (from BBC America or PBS). However, I have occasionally heard it used by American announcers broadcasting other soccer matches, so it's making it "across the pond". |
