There is no 'illogicality' at all. The word was carefully chosen for reasons above that you probably failed to grasp or pretend to have failed to grasp.

And what in your booze-addled mind makes you think that a textbook for kiddywinks in Poland reflects attitudes to food?

It's not a problem at all, and I wondered long ago if that was what confused you.

You said it's for 6th graders, whatever that is. Can you think of a reason that a book for their level would use meals rather than dishes?

Are you familiar with the lexical corpus at different CEFR levels?

You ought to be...

And you still don't say why you think that it reflects the culinary attitudes of the nations that make up Britain.

Sometimes, non-natives should really not pretend to be teachers.

Remember, pancakes can be a meal, and a very nice one. Some people have them for breakfast.

Also short for Ravinder, a Sikh name, and Ravindra, a Hindu name.

Not that everyone Jewish or Sikh or Hindu is religious or follows dietary laws.

Plus there are sausages that are acceptable to any religion; Linda Macartney vegan are actually nicer than they sound.

You're still wrong.

It's actually quite sad that someone earning a salary of sorts as a schoolteacher can't understand why didactic materials choose certain words and phrases.

There's nothing that reflects four nations' attitude to food.

You are clutching at straws.

It does.

Think of context.


Like using travel rather than go, it's a heuristic device for children.

You know less than you think. It's always a mistake for someone to try to correct a person who is not only right but also way above them.

Non-native teachers sometimes make that mistake.

It works. The question is: where did you visit last weekend?

Go is better than visited however the sentence isn't a problem. It is grammatically correct. And not especially awkward.


Because it's not an error and certainly not 'cadual'...

That's quite an assumption; and one that your text doesn't back up at all.

That bland text from a kids' course book has zero value.

You have a curious (casual?) understanding of the term "furious meltdown".

And there are no issues with t(e language in the photos.

You're repeating yourself.

Perhaps black coffee, a good sleep and a visit to an AA meeting may be worth your while.

And you've still not said what you mean by casual. A nebulous term if ever there was one.

Because there's nothing of value or significance in your posts here and the whole (old) thread is a trolling one anyway.

Who would bother 'detecting' the undetectable?

There is one textual matter that a person from Poland might think is an inconsistency (though it in fact isn't) however there is nothing that gives any signs to four nations' attitude to food.

It doesn't work, you know. People are wise to your attempts at provocation.

And you still haven't made it clear what you mean by casual.

Simply because you don't actually mean anything.

As I say, stick to temperance products in the daytime.

There no 'idea' though is there.

You're trying to manufacture something out of zero.

Your original post would make more sense if you were a bit clearer about what you're trying to say.

What do you mean by ''casual'?

@pawian
It's just a fairly dull textbook. It tells us nothing about four nations' attitude to food.
