I've been there and I understand where you're coming from. Different words have different level of gravity in different languages and cultures. FWIW: I didn't read it as invoking catastrophic ramifications and/or doubting integrity of the person. But that's *my* reading. Somebody who, at the end of the day, speaks English fluently but alas as a second language. I do apologize if it made if you feel uncomfortable. I think the key takeaway for all of us who chimed in on this thread is to be extremely appreciative of the fact that we all come from different backgrounds and cultures and can interpret things differently. Lets give each other a bit of a breathing room and a benefit of the doubt. Thanks, Roman.
