WORDS

We commonly use words in general speaking, writing and reading. Where do they come from? What are the actual meanings of the different words? Does it make a difference which word we use?

I am not specifically discussing grammar (or being a grammar nazi), although this also plays a part in this posting, as you will see.

Generally MOST people are under the assumption (incorrectly) that as long as they talk to another human, they convey exactly what they intend to say. If one does not absolutely comprehend the meanings and use of words themselves, how can true intent be conveyed between themselves and another?

Today many of our common words are assumed to have a certain meaning, but in reality they have an original meaning that has been diluted by incorrect use by the general public or simply deferred to have another meaning over the course of time. Nothing can be further than the truth. The original intent is still there, and is meant as such when used in a legal sense throughout documentation and courtrooms. EVERY single word that is spoken, written or read has a specific meaning, and is used for a specific reason. This is absolutely true when applied to ALL legislation ("statutes", "codes" & "law(s)"), contracts, documentation and even in courtrooms. These words can mean the difference between being free, and being locked into a cage.

For example, we often are asked if we "understand". It is generally accepted to mean that we "comprehend", or have good comprehension of what is being intended by another. So why not use the word "comprehend" in the first place? Because the user is actually asking if we "submit" or "decide of our own will to agree". How can this be? Well the word "understand" is actually two single words, replaced into a different order, to "trick" the non-educated or non-enlightened person into a "contract of agreement". If you agree that you "understand", you are agreeing that you "stand under" or "submit to authority". This IS NOT semantics. This is the truth of words. DO THE RESEARCH for yourself.

I suggest to ALL that you use the actual words you intend to convey your intent, and research any that you do not comprehend, especially when it comes to anything in any legal sense, including the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution of the United States of America, as well as all other legislation.

WORDS have specific meanings, and are used specifically for a certain purpose.
