Re: Toilet definition
Did you learn this from television? I’m sure neuroscience has an answer for us, and I know this is an automobile appreciation site with a penchant for hypercorrection, but our lovable and talkative debates are the source of much merriment. Now, I’m mainly monolingual and not much into sociology but surely there are several examples of hybrid Latin/Greek words in common use?GG. wrote: Tue Dec 17, 2019 6:04 pm Only being pedantic as it not a pure latin term like hetero-sexual (and you don't tend to mix and match, for example you don't say hemi-circle or semi-sphere which would be a latin greek mash up).

"and was assigned female at birth" - by whom? The Baby Jesus, presumably. I bet he was a bender too.Ascender wrote: Tue Dec 17, 2019 4:58 pm I feel your pain.
I had to google this yesterday after some people I know were using it on social media and its blown my mind.
Cisgender (sometimes cissexual, often abbreviated to simply cis) is a term for people whose gender identity matches the sex that they were assigned at birth. For example, someone who identifies as a woman and was assigned female at birth is a cisgender woman. The term cisgender is the opposite of the word transgender.[

You’re right. There actually quite a few and automobile and petroleum being two! https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hybrid_word
Shows that I didn’t study classics at school!
Funny how some like semi-sphere would just be looked upon as weird and wrong whereas others become accepted - some technical/medical ones too, like neonate.
Rev - consider me eating humilem crustum

Re: Toilet definition
in all seriousness - I’m not a Boomer or a millennial (neither are you?), but do you actually think 70 genders are actually required Or is it people just trying to get attention?
