Dec 11	comment	Can I always use “unless” interchangeably with “if not”? You need to be careful with punctuation here. "Let's meet in Rome: if not, in Paris" means "Let's try to meet in Rome, and if that doesn't work let's meet in Paris"; "Let's meet in Rome, if not in Paris" means "Let's try to meet in Paris, and if that doesn't work let's meet in Rome."
Dec 9	comment	Specific verb for “training an apprentice”? "orientation" really only refers to the most basic of knowledge passing. "orientation" frequently doesn't tell you anything about doing your job - just information you need before you start doing your job.
Dec 9	comment	What could be the correct idiom for expressing that someone is baking up false allegations without evidence? You might also consider "mudslinging".
Dec 9	comment	What could be the correct idiom for expressing that someone is baking up false allegations without evidence? "Barking up the wrong tree" would imply a mistake or ignorance on the part of the person doing it, not malice or deliberate concoction.
Dec 9	comment	Specific verb for “training an apprentice”? Have to disagree with you there. Induction is "formal installation in an office, benefice, or the like". Some companies use it to mean initial basic training, but it doesn't have to be that and it would be the wrong word to use if you specifically wanted to mean training. I think the questioner is asking about more in-depth training than this anyway.
