overread vs over-read vs over read
Subject: overread vs over-read vs over read

OneLook has a disclaimer for the definition of the word overread that says: This definition is from the 1913 Webster's Dictionary and may be outdated. Some of the links listed on OneLook give the definition, some say the word does not exist, another gives the definition and then says (not used). There are references online for over-read, overread, and over read. I think over-read with a hyphen is a nice compromise. It's situations like this that make me dazed and confused!

I'll have to remember that in case I ever have the need to go back to neuro.  Not one of my favorites, kinda sad, but okay at the time.


When I said "cool" I really meant it.  I like to pass through word help occasionally.  You never know what you're going to find.


Every little bit helps.

This Word board is for assistance. 


If you don't want to assist or be helpful with information, direction, guidance, then simply do not post.


Stop with the rudeness, the hatefulness, the judgement. 


If you want to report a suspicious post for test questions or offshore MT, etc., please do so but stop being ugly ON the board.

Is Fosamax given weekly or daily? I left a QA marker because when I look up Fosamax, it is given weekly, but the doc said 70 mg daily, so I left a blank. The QA person left it as daily. Would this be correct - Fosamax 70 mg daily?

Read the TOS for the board
Subject: Read the TOS for the board

It states that this board is not designed to be a place to get unlimited advice.  It is here to foster dicussion.  My opinion is people tend to use this site as a crutch because they lack maturity or motivation or just don't care to experience the pleasaure of researching and making discoveries that will benefit them for life.


ALL POSTERS READ
Subject: ALL POSTERS READ

I have deleted and banned several offshore posters from using this website, the Word board in particular.  I will try to watch closely for offshore posters as we do not allow them to post here.  Your help is appreciated if you suspect such.


Reminder:  We do not allow test questions to be posted.  As I am observing this board closely, I will delete any posts that seem to be following test format.  Changing your moniker will not make a difference -- I can still see who you are!
