Before and After and other words.

We often use 'before and after' as prepositions instead of adverbs in the military.

Before he deployed.

After R&R.

Before training.

After in-processing.

And 'until' becomes awfully important.

Eventually 6 weeks turns into 3 days before he leaves. Eventually that can turn into 3 months until I see him again. After training, before deployment.. we should take a vacation.

'Someday' takes precedence.

Did you know that the offical Scrabble rules say that you cannot use foreign words? See:   English-language game of Scrabble, foreign words cannot be placed on the Scrabble board.

Soupir.
