Just a short tip (and a late one) for this week:
Here are two words that people use that are not actually words at all. Please do send along more. What a fun rainy day activity!
Preventative and exploitive are not words. The real words are preventive and exploitative. How do we know? Because we say, “prevention,” not “preventation.” Similarly, we say “exploitative” because the noun form is “exploitation.”
