Q: Implication of the sentence "... can ... if ..."?

RyouWhen saying "Someone can A if B", does it imply "If someone does not B, someone cannot A"? So if I want to say "B is an option for A, but B is not necessary to achieve A", is "Someone may A if B" closer to this? Or is "Someone can A if B" good enough for this meaning?

I'm wondering how you find pictures for your avatar.

12:28 AM
@Gigili Just go to avatarsdb.com for example.
 
Your NARQ question got two answers already.
It's more a mathematical question, necessary and efficient conditions.
 
user19161
@Gigili You mean sufficient and not efficient. Also, it is supposed to be an English question about the connotation of the expression.
 
I mean necessary and sufficient conditions which are mathematical concepts.
 
user19161
@Gigili Sure, but words used in everyday English is not the same as words used in a technical field.
 
user19161
A set can be open and closed in topology but a door cannot be open and closed in real life.
 
12:35 AM
Nice example but unfortunately it's not the case.
 
user19161
@RegDwightѬſ道 Good night!
 
The OP is obviously asking "when A holds B blabla", as you can see there's an answer explaining it mathematically.
 
user19161
@MattЭллен That sounds serious.
 
user19161
@Gigili Firstly his question is not clear. Secondly it is not too relevant what the expression means in mathematics.
 
user19161
So it is best not to answer and confuse an already confused asker.
 
12:39 AM
Off to bed.
 
user19161
@Gigili Good night!
 
@Gigili good night.
@WillHunting I've just put an answer to that effect. Sorry if I stole your thunder.
 
user19161
@DavidWallace Sure. I was not thundering, only farting.
 
OK, I hope I didn't steal your fart then.
 
user19161
My fart is mine alone! But others may smell it if they wish.
 
12:42 AM
@DavidWallace Oof.
 
Is that some freaky Persian expression?
 
It's a made up word meaning I thought you just posted answer to nice questions, very disappointing.
 
No, I'm kind of a slut like that.
Actually, I've only just noticed what a terrible question it is. What is it actually asking? I suppose I should have ascertained that before I answered it, huh!
They're not asking "can vs may" are they?
I think I'm going to remove my answer. It would be mortifying for me to disappoint Gigili.
There, all gone!
 
It was an unforgivable act.
 
cries
 
12:51 AM
I don't think your tears are for real.
 
Are you saying I'd lie to you?
 
No?
 
You sound very sure about that.
 
It's as clear as day you're deceiving me.
You didn't cry, as you don't laugh when you type lol.
I'll call the police.
One more line to see the total network rep.

I laugh every time I type LOL.
See, I did it just then.
You just can't hear because you're too far away.
 
1:07 AM
Tell me die but don't tell me lie.
@DavidWallace Are you saying I'm deaf?
 
Hey, I have to go and take Emerik to a soccer game. Nice chatting. BBL.

@Gigili Lie and die are not good. Only pie is good.
 
11:08 AM
everybody gone?
 
I think they all went Hoo-Hoo-Choo-Choo to bed.
 
I'm sorry. I don't care if it what's you say in Iran. It really sounds to me like cunnilingus gone badly wrong.
 
@Cerberus Hi God! how are you?
@DavidWallace lol. It's the way a train sounds here :D
 
@DavidWallace I love it.
@Meysam Hi! But I'm not really a god, more like a demigod.
 
I just finished watching a documentary about women playing rugby in Iran. Fascinating, and also sad.
 
11:13 AM
@Cerberus But you said I can call you God
 
Oh, did I?
 
@DavidWallace Do they play rugby too? I thought they only play football
 
Hmm well, I suppose I have no objections.
 
@Cerberus You did, I can find it in the chat history
 
@Meysam Please be careful how you use the F word.
 
11:15 AM
@Meysam Very well, I believe you.
 
@DavidWallace what do you mean?
Guys! I have a question regarding using Not after verb. Is it used in colloquial conversations? Like these: saying "He knows not" instead of "he doesn't know". Or saying "Fear not" instead of "don't fear"
 
@Meysam I mistakenly referred to football as "rugby" in my earlier comment, simply so that it would be clear that I didn't mean either "soccer" or "American football".
"Rugby" is the name of a school in England, not the name of a game. It is, in fact, the school where football was first played.
 
@DavidWallace Uhum
@DavidWallace Yes I agree it's a very hard condition for them, and really sad
 
@Meysam It's kind of archaic to use "not" in this way. Those two particular examples are relatively common, because they both occur in the Bible, KJV. However, most other cases of "not" after a verb (other than an auxiliary verb or the verb to be) would be regarded as abnormal by most speakers of English.
 
@DavidWallace good to know, thanks
@DavidWallace As far as I know, 'b' is not pronounced after 'm' at the end of words. Like in "numb" or "bomb" or "climb", ... Can you think of any word where 'b' is pronounced after 'm'?
 
11:25 AM
Luke 2:10 and Luke 23:34 to be precise.
 
"And the angel said to them, “Fear not, for behold, I bring you good news of great joy"

Q: Which tense to use in this situation?

Confused1I am writing a summary for last year and I have just realized that I do not know what tense to use in the following situation: Since 2009 I have been developing a computer program. As I am describing what I was working on last year, what tense should I use? I think I cannot use simple past tense ...

 
@Meysam I can't think of one, but that doesn't mean that there isn't one. Maybe you could ask this as a question; somebody else might think of one. Of course, RegDwight will come along and close it, but you might get a good answer before he does so.
 
I could swear I've seen a question about a very similar sentence, or even the very same, just yesterday.
 
Now that's freaky. I type his name, and he appears half a second before I press ENTER.
 
11:28 AM
I suspect there are no exceptions.
 
@RegDwight you really are Satan, aren't you?
 
@DavidWallace I will ask when he appears to be asleep
 
Wise.
 
@DavidWallace How do you think Satan would respond?
 
Laugh in an hysterical, devellish manner?
 
11:29 AM
Not you. You know him too well.
 
Fair enough.
 
Gah! Now in addition to "x questions with new activity" they also have "1 new answer to this question".
And when I click on it, it looks kinda broken.
 
My goodness, I can think of dozens of -mb words where the b is silent, but none where it's pronounced. Note that the mb doesn't have to be at the end of a word, for the b to be silent (like plumber).
 
@DavidWallace lumberjack.
 
No, we're talking about -mb at the end of the word, having a dumb b.
 
11:32 AM
like cucumber
 
@DavidWallace you only just said it did not have to be at the end of the word.
You are changing your opinion faster than women buy shoes.
 
Meysam asked if there were cases of a non-silent B at the end of a word, following an M. I said I couldn't think of any; but I also said that there were sometimes silent Bs following Ms in the middle of a word. Please try to understand me before you misrepresent me.
 
I'll do my very best.

@DavidWallace As far as I know, 'b' is not pronounced after 'm' at the end of words. Like in "numb" or "bomb" or "climb", ... Can you think of any word where 'b' is pronounced after 'm'?
 
I didn't catch up on the transcript.
 
11:35 AM
@Meysam - I think I distracted Reg by answering the question that he linked to, and is probably about to close. Quick, ask your question about silent Bs, and maybe he won't notice.
 
For me, the exchange was: "Note that the mb doesn't have to be at the end of a word, for the b to be silent (like plumber)." - "lumberjack." - "No, we're talking about -mb at the end of the word, having a dumb b."
That is the scope I had to work with.
 
@RegDwight, well if you hang around here long enough, maybe somebody will teach you how to read a transcript.
 
@DavidWallace It seems that you are not aware of consequences of distracting a Demigod!
 
So you are telling me that "Note that the mb doesn't have to be at the end of a word, for the b to be silent (like plumber)." changes its meaning depending on context?
You were not looking for a word where the B is pronounced, be it at the end or in the middle?
 
11:38 AM
@RegDwightѬſ道 No, he is telling that b can be silent after m, even in the middle of word
 
I am saying that it APPEARS that occurring at the end of a word is a SUFFICIENT condition for a B after an M to be silent, but it is certainly not a NECESSARY condition.
 
Excellent.
 
@Meysam Distracting a demigod? He looks to me like an elephant with its head stuck in the sand.
 
Now let me close some questions.

Q: What is the meaning of "take" in phrase "that was the reason of the take"?

AnixxWhat is the meaning of the word "take" in the sentence "that was the reason of the take"?

How about this one.
 
Now the question is, why is b silent after m? because it's hard to pronounce? if it's hard, why is b pronounced after m in a word like cucumber?
 
@Meysam there is no such thing as "hard to pronounce".
If you see any etymological explanation anywhere involving "hard to pronounce", run. Because it will be awfully wrong.
 
@RegDwightѬſ道 what about "easier to pronounce"?
 
Same difference.
 
@Meysam It's hard to pronounce at the end of a word. Other cases where it's silent in the middle of a word are usually made by adding endings to cases where it's slient at the end (like plumber from plumb).
@RegDwightѬſ道 That sounds like one hell of a generalisation.
 
11:43 AM
@DavidWallace so does "easier to pronounce", aren't you noticing.
I am fighting generalizations with their own weapons.
 
@RegDwightѬſ道 of course there are some sounds hard to pronounce for English speakers
 
There are loads of cases in loads of languages in which letters, particularly at the ends of words, have become silent due to lazy speech. I could spend all night citing examples.
 
@Meysam exactly. "To English speakers". That is a completely different statement.
@DavidWallace I could spend all night citing examples of the exact same letters not becoming silent in the exact same position in a different language.
If your mother pronounced "mb" at the end of all words, so would you. You wouldn't think it hard.
 
@RegDwightѬſ道 Can you cite just one of -mb at the end of a word, in a language other than English? Where the B is still pronounced?
@RegDwightѬſ道 Following that argument, we'd still be pronouncing words the same way Shakespeare's mother did.
 
@DavidWallace катакомбы
 
11:47 AM
@DavidWallace нимб, тромб.
 
But the B isn't at the end of that example, @Vitaly
@RegDwightѬſ道 OK, thank you. Asked and answered.
 
@DavidWallace followed by a vowel. also, апломб
 
But anyway, I really didn't mean to interrupt you and Meysam.
 
ромб, ямб...
 
11:48 AM
I was about to close a couple questions.
So carry on.
 
@RegDwightѬſ道 What about those children whose mother pass away upon giving birth to them?
 
@Meysam I don't think there are enough of these to seriously impact the way words are pronounced.
 
"Rhumb" still has the terminal b sound.
 
@Meysam obviously those grow up without a mother tongue.
 
@RegDwightѬſ道 When does "couple" mean two and when does it mean a few? How can we know?
 
11:50 AM
@KitFox According to the New Zealand Oxford Dictionary, the B in rhumb is silent.
Of course, an American dictionary may disagree; or even a British one for that matter.
 
according to Longman Pronunciation Dictionary, rhomb has an alternative pronunciation, which is /rɑːmb/ in AmE and /rɒmb/ in BrE
 
@DavidWallace actually, it's following your argument of simplicity that we would be pronouncing words the same way Shakespeare's mother did.
 
no alternatives listed for rhumb
 
Because if some things are easier to pronounce than others, we'd long have reached the perfect simplicity, no longer simplifiable.
 
11:52 AM
Sorry, @KitFox, what I meant was "hello, lovely to see you". I didn't mean to contradict the first thing you said on arrival. I have been very rude.
@RegDwightѬſ道 I hope you're not misrepresenting me again.
 
That is not my intention, and never has been.
After 25000 years of speaking lazier and lazier, we wouldn't be able to speak lazier still.
More to the point, all languages would sound the same.
 
If everyone pronounced every word the same way their mother did, then no language would ever change its pronunciation. (I believe that's the principle of mathematical induction at work). However, the fact that we don't all pronounce everything the same way as Shakespeare is the required reductio ad absurdum.
 
I am not arguing about that.
 
@RegDwightѬſ道 Why are you referring to 25000 years ago? Did anything significant happen at that time?
 
I am arguing about your point.
 
11:56 AM
@RegDwightѬſ道 Yes, but eventually, the extra effort required to distinguish one "muh" from another "muh" would cancel out the saving from being lazy.
@Meysam Reg isn't that old.

Now let me close some questions.
 
@DavidWallace I think the gradual change in every language starts and continues by every mother dying after giving birth.
 
@RegDwightѬſ道 The spirit is willing but the flesh is weak?
 
Better than the other way round.
 
Guys please answer my question. @RegDwight said he is going to close a couple questions. And I asked:
10 mins ago, by Meysam
@RegDwightѬſ道 When does "couple" mean two and when does it mean a few? How can we know?
 
12:00 PM
@Meysam by looking at the context.
 
@RegDwightѬſ道 I am looking but I can't get to know whether it means "two" or "some"
Should I look more?
 
Words are allowed to be ambiguous.
If you can't passively tell from the context, you will have to ask for active clarification.
If the speaker is dead or unavailable, all bets are off.
 
@Meysam If it doesn't mean "two", then it was just an approximation. Like if I say I gained 100 rep points today, I'm not lying if the exact number was 97 or 103.
Reg either means he's going to close two questions, or he's going to close approximately two questions. The issue is how many would he have to close for it to cease to be approximately two.
 
@DavidWallace So when Reg says he is going to close a couple of questions, is he allowed to close like 10 questions?
 
I can close OVER 9000 questions, and still have closed a couple.
 
12:04 PM
@RegDwight Please actively clarify. How many question are you going to close?
 
Seven.
Eight if I'm on a roll.
 
@RegDwightѬſ道 Yeah, but that would be closing a couple, then rinsing and repeating 4500 times.
 
And you infer my unwillingness or unability to rinse and repeat from which part of the context, exactly?
 
@Meysam I would say that if he does that, then he is using the word "couple" incorrectly. But please remember that I speak a regional dialect.
 
Also, as a pineapple I am allowed to use any and all words incorrectly.
 
12:06 PM
Yes, Humpty Dumpty.
 
Did a couple fall.
 
@RegDwightѬſ道 Not fair enough
 
I never promised not to be not fair enough.
 
@RegDwightѬſ道 I'm not failing to deny that you never promised anything other than that.

I think that exact passage is actually here in the transcript somewhere.
Where Humpty Dumpty insists on words meaning whatever he wants them to mean, that is.
Feb 4 '11 at 14:37, by Robusto
"When I use a word," Humpty Dumpty said in rather a scornful tone, "it means just what I choose it to mean — neither more nor less."
"The question is," said Alice, "whether you can make words mean so many different things."
"The question is," said Humpty Dumpty, "which is to be master — that's all."

The wrynecks (genus Jynx) are a small but distinctive group of small Old World woodpeckers. Like the true woodpeckers, wrynecks have large heads, long tongues which they use to extract their insect prey and zygodactyl feet, with two toes pointing forward, and two backwards. However, they lack the stiff tail feathers that the true woodpeckers use when climbing trees, so they are more likely than their relatives to perch on a branch rather than an upright trunk. Their bills are shorter and less dagger-like than in the true woodpeckers, but their chief prey is ants and other insects, whic...

Did he shoot her with his compromise

Q: Is "payless" synonym of "free"?

AnixxDoes "payless" mean "for zero price", and "free" (as in beer)? I searched the dictionaries but could not find the word. I also wonder whether "cost-free" means the same.

@Cerberus my first thought was, "how many faith healers actually make falsifiable medical claims?"
 
Jez
Anyone? :-)
 
I can do nothin' for ya, son.
 
@Cerberus the funny thing is, you don't need a charlatan healer for a placebo effect. By the very definition by placebo, you could just stare at the wall.
In other words, ASA is so cool it will even help people save on placebos.
(Oh, and if staring at the wall doesn't work, then you are not a particularly strong believer, and the society is well advised to burn you at the stake.)

@MattЭллен in their defense, most people don't understand how science works

@JSBᾶngs So their defense is stupidity, or ignorance, or lack of curiosity?
 
I expect more from the people in charge.
I probably shouldn't
 
yeah, i expect less from people in charge
 
I want more from them, either way
 
5:23 PM
Well, jokes aside, I must second @JSB on this. People are stupid. Politicians are people. More to the point, politicians are supposed to represent the people. If people want dumb things, politicans must give them dumb things.
When politicians don't do what people want, we blame them. This one time these few brave politicians actually want to do what people want, and we blame them again. Where's the justice in that.
 
What? that doesn't make sense. People in charge are meant to represent what's best for the people
otherwise they're not leaders
 
@MattЭллен are they supposed to do what the people want or what's best for the people?
the two are often not the same
 
@JSBᾶngs yes!
 
and democracy is about the former
 
@MattЭллен Well you are talking benevolent dictatorship. I am talking democracy.
 
5:26 PM
no, democracy is about electing the people you think will make the best choices
 
I do not vote for a politician so he does what's best for me. I vote for him so he does what I think is best for me.
 
not the people who will give you exactly what you want

@Vitaly I think I'm at 20 stam or something.
 
I'm not that crazy.
 
Let me see.
Hm. By the looks of it the def war is not going anywhere. I'd rather seal the deal on the active war first. I'll go on regen for another hour, then check again.

@JSBᾶngs Yeah the rules are usually pretty lax. Only definite claims are usually forbidden by the EU.
@RegDwightѬſ道 So when you are in pain or suffer other discomforts, you usually stare at a wall, and it works?
The idea is that it only works if you believe in it. So money spent on faith healers may be more effective than that spent on wall paint.
