This morning I was talking to a close friend about something I am =
writing.
She interrupted me: "I want you to change one word in your vocabulary;
replace fine porcelain with delicate porcelain". I started laughing and
asked her why? Her answer: the one sound arrogant and the other =
descriptive.
It made me wonder how often we here on Clayart misunderstand each other. =
How
well do we think something that we write through and how hard do we =
really
try to understand what the other person are trying to say.
It is crucially important for us to understand each other if we want to
learn from each other. Using words and language that are effective to =
bring
over the message the way we mean to say it, is important. With so many =
words
out there to choose from, it is easy to say something different from =
what
you mean.
Thanks to Microsoft word I can at least correct some of the grammar and
spelling mistakes I make.

Do you need sharp trimming tools that will not wear out quickly? Contact =
me
for information.=20

It is also important to know and understand the language with which we
describe our own work, or else we will not be able to sell it.
