But actually there's an very positive ancient meaning of "awful":
"Awful" = archaic "inspiring". (http://www.askoxford.com/concise_oed/awful?view=uk) For example: "How awful to feel himself there an atom amidst the infinity of nature!" This is just my 2 cents, because I am not native speaker neither and used "awful" in some comments and I love English a lot ;-) Rost >> -----Original Message----- >> From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On >> Behalf Of Ralf Bokelberg >> Sent: Tuesday, June 28, 2005 2:53 PM >> To: Open Source Flash Mailing List >> Subject: Re: [osflash] Powerflasher FDT >> >> omg, >> sorry for that. >> >> Ralf. >> >> Keith Peters wrote: >> >> > >> > >> > >> >>-----Original Message----- >> >>Huh, i didn't even know, there was a difference, thanks. >> >>That's why my english mother-in-law always turns red when i >> >>was trying to praise her food :) >> >> >> >>Ralf. >> > >> > >> > >> > >> > Ah.
