Hi all,
Yeh, Pratik, you're probably right. Written language doesn't shift as
fast as does the spoken word. Guido's going by the common spoken
usage. I haven't heard anyone use arouse in spoken English with its
original connotation in decades. Just wait a few more and the written
word will copy the spoken one. Just wait a generation and the verb To
Skype will be placed right after Sky lark in the dictionary. <smiling>
