Don't forget the sour prentices.
"Sawcy pedantique wretch, goe chide Late schooleboyes."
- John Donne, 'Sunne Rising'.
"annoyingly proud of learning"
So, John, can I put the antic in pedantic? :-D
Wordie apparently doesn't hold on to capitalizations.
Maybe being pedantic is not necessarily a bad thing? Pedantry has just had a bad press in the past.
Wordie is like the house that pedantry built. It's a machine for with which to be pedantic. It puts the ped in pedantry.
Example: "Well, Lois, since you asked, I find this meatloaf rather shallow and pedantic."
Geez, none of you guys capitalized it even!
