( I am a native English speaker with a background in literature/academia.) "similarity >= 0.97..." - Such quantitative analysis is not really applicable in questions of style, usage and the nuance of a particular word. | |
| Apr 12 at 8:35 | comment | added | sylvainulg | I'm no native speaker, but it's a bit odd to pick a word meaning "similarity >= 0.97" and then degrade it with "somewhat" to mean "kind of similar" (which would correspond to a lesser similarity value in my interpetation) | |
