Whenever I look in this topic, I see a whole chain of me staring back at me... it's a little bit...
kowai: scary
kowai: scary
"Irregardless" and "Over exaggerated" are NEVER CORRECT EVER because they are redundant
Regardless means "without regard", and adding "ir" on the front actually makes it a double negative; exaggerate means "to overstate" so you're literally saying "over overstate."
Example: I can not exaggerate the importance of this fact enough, regardless of how often people ignore it.

I know this is a bit overdue, but pan means bread in Spanish, too.Josiah wrote:pan: bread
It's also part of a spell on a MMORPG I was playing (the spell is "exevo pan". In that game, you actually have to type in the spells (or set them to hotkeys, either way)). The spell created bread, and some fruit, I think. Definatly made bread, though.
May the Triforce be with you.
