Is “obscure” the same as “undocumented”? @Karl: I believe people in technical circles do talk about documentation that nobody knows about: they call it "poorly documented". |

Is “obscure” the same as “undocumented”? @drɱ: not trying to hyper-analyze, merely trying to understand. I suppose if respondent had said "well documented" I would have had no cause to wonder about this question, so your answer points out something valuable. |

Can “whore” mean “to hoard things”? @emragins: I had both "the undying" and "the immortal" from Nax! Oh, and a bear mount from Zul'Aman! |

Can “whore” mean “to hoard things”? When I google "quit whoring all the" I get 60 hits; one example: "quit whoring all the cookies and beer!" Are these people just conflating "whore" and "hoard" then? |

Can “whore” mean “to hoard things”? Jeff: I don't take "hoard" to mean "to store up"; more like "to collect for oneself and refuse to share". Imagine a 3 yr old hoarding all the blocks. Someone hoarding attention might step to the front of a group and not let anyone else talk, for example. |

Can “whore” mean “to hoard things”? So you're saying that a "X whore" will do anything to obtain X, where X defaults to "money" if omitted. |

Can “doubt” sometimes mean “question”? I'm a professor who has had so many Indian students use this word in this way that it no longer strikes me as unusual. I wouldn't be surprised if I (unwittingly) started to use it myself. |

What is a single word to describe beating someone brutally? I just searched U.S. news outlets for use of the word "brutalize" and could not find a single use indicating rape. |
