hm... could, be that's why i was throwing it up there for debate. but i think there is a shade of differeince... i.e. if you were in venezueala, hungary, egypt, or japan, you say "o.k." and chances are the native speaker understands the gist of the word. you say "murmur" to the same native spaker, they might best be able to replicate the sound but might not know what it means ~? j$, a cunning linguist |
