Morality : in web applications, always specify the
content-type (and character set, if applicable) of what you are
returning.
To André: the word you are looking for is "Moral", not
"Morality". A "moral" is the essential message of a story, while
"morality" is being able to tell the difference between right and
wrong. ;)
Thanks for the vocabulary note. I my defense, I would say that
this family of English terms is a bit confusing, for a native
French-speaker.
Oh, English is a cluster-@#$*&)% because the sentence structure is
insane and the vocabulary has been robbed from every other language in
history. I don't envy anyone trying to learn English.. it must seem to
chaotic compared to German or Latin-based languages (both of which I
have studied, and they have a certain beautiful order to them ... most
of the time).
You usually have impeccable English (better than most Americans, at
least), which is why I went ahead and gave you the short lesson.
There are many such things between different - but related -
languages, some of them often leading to amusing situations. For
example, the word in spanish for "suffering from a cold" is
"constipado", which is very close to the french word for being
incapable to go to the toilet ("constipé").
Hah. I would have assumed both of those words were the latter
(gastrointestinal distress).
And the English adjective "embarassed" (also imported from the
French "embarassé(e)", and with the same meaning), is very close to
the Spanish "embarassada", which means "pregnant".
This all just in case someone was wondering about my interest in
character set issues on the WWW..
Just don't be embarrassed. Of pregnant. Or whatever. :)
