That would be a language barrier.
Being a North-American English language speaker: "Howto" is akin to "Howto
guide", or "Howto book".
Being French-Acadian with a somewhat creative and humorous bent, I'd be
tempted to prefix requests for help with "Qu'est-ce qui diddley, là?" for
the fun of it, likely "HowDoI" if I hope to seem less out to lunch.
For me, a tip is what I give to my food server.
Fair warning to all: French-Acadian, I'm more wordy than any of your
grandma's, so hold onto your ears and brace yourselves for typically
long-winded tiddler names from this verbose kid until my caboose gets
bitten in a less-than-pleasing fashion.
Also, typically French-Acadian (well, in my mind): I can't talk without
moving my hands. So count yer lucky stars that I haven't yet figured out
how to fit hand-movement into my tiddler titles and my writing in
general...
Giggles aside: I kind of liked "nth[]" as a consistent approach across the
board for experimenting with this idea of
multi-"qualified"(?)/"parameterized"(?)/??? tiddler names to unclutter my
list of tags and field names. Definitely going back to "first[]" (and
last[] if I need it) if I'm not liking the experiment with nth[]. Well,
one of many experiments on my plate ....
