We live a bit further south than one might imagine, therefore, some of us do not differentiate between the two words. Guess which one?
Mike: (in response to some annoyance supplied by his son) "Quinn! Go set at the table!"
Quinn: (Runs for his life due to said annoyance, then begins placing napkins, forks, plates and glasses on the kitchen table.)
Marcie: "Quinn, what are you doing?!"
Quinn: "I'm just doing what Dad told me!"
Ah . . . a good test of new-found auditory discrimination skills.
