CORPORAL PUNISHMENT

continual or continuous?

CONTINUAL means frequently repeated, occurring

with short breaks only.

CONTINUOUS means uninterrupted.

contractions

Take care when placing the apostrophe in

contractions. It is placed where the letter has been

omitted and not where the two words are joined.

These happen to coincide in some contractions:

I'd (I would, I had)

they aren't (they are not)

it isn't (it is not)

you hadn't (you had not)

you wouldn't (you would not)

she won't (she will not)

we haven't (we have not)

I shan't (I shall not)

It was common in Jane Austen's time to use two

apostrophes in shan't (sha'n't) to show that two sets

of letters had been omitted but this is no longer

correct today.

control

controlled, controlling

controller

convenience

(not -ance)

convenient

conveniently (not convien-)

cord

See CHORD OR CORD?.

corporal punishment
