From: "Wythe Holt jr." > What is the difference, in pronunciation or meaning, between "shit" and > "shite" (the latter of which is > apparently not in use in the US)? Pronunciation: "wit" versus "white". Meaning" "ass" versus "arse". Sometimes, "ass" can be used as a softer alternative to "arse".A bit like how "wanker" isn't particularly meaningful in the US - see The Simpsons for how a quite impolite term can be repeatedly used on US TV without censors getting all weird about it. Technically, "ass" can also mean "donkey". ________________________________________________ Send list submissions to: Marxism@greenhouse.economics.utah.edu Set your options at: http://greenhouse.economics.utah.edu/mailman/options/marxism/archive%40mail-archive.com
