Sep 28	comment	Analog of “innovative” for a well-executed engineering project but curiosity was innovative, thats the thing... the sky crane was an untested innovation...
Sep 28	comment	What is it called when you stay at hospital? well it depends on how specific you want to be, you could be in hospital for 5 days on a death vigil, or overnight while your partner is giving birth but not be receiving treatment
Sep 9	comment	Words having two prefixes incorporated The question is, are these words actually words, why put a privative on a privative? in the case of antidisestablishment it is a different privative, meaning against the disestablishment whereas unpremeditated does not require the privative un, simply use the antonym of premeditated. double privative is only needed when there is no adequate antonym
Sep 7	comment	Words having two prefixes incorporated English prefixes are derivative and can be used in conjunction. the root of unpremeditated is premeditated not meditated. therefore technically it only has one prefix.
