For example: For example, if you're building a new road or parking lot, you can use coarse sand and gravel as an aggregate base course material before you pave. Seems simple yet I have seen highly educated P.E. engineers confuse the two.

I'm ok with that as long as you don't use that kind of pavement on a race coarse.
It's probably ok for a hoarse track. You know the old saying: Hoarses for Coarses.
As a funny aside, my parents were playing Scrabble years and years ago (And years and years) and my Mother spelled out a 3 letter word (O-N-E).....My Father asked.....(Sarcastically) "What is an "Own-E"?
I'm surprised how many people keep braking their breaks here. Of coarse, there reason for having problems are specific to they're own car. Butt you'd think everyone would have a Service Manual for referring too buy now.
Fierosound, that is "Sir-Vice Manuel"......And I am know taking a brake from working on ma breaks.....But I can't stop with-out them.
I used to be very arrogant in my belief of "English" superiority until my Thai girlfriend said she was "Com-FORT-able"....Then I started realizing that English is a very bizarre mix of other languages.
I was thinking it would be interesting to rank languages by efficiency of transfer of information. Google, of course, lists lots of information, observations and studies including the following, which may be valid...
Which is the most efficient language? In a recent study which examined 7 widely spoken languages (English, French, Italian, Japanese, Spanish, Mandarin, and German), English came out on top as the most economical of the surveyed languages with the highest information density rate.May 9, 2017
One would presume only properly organized, punctuated, spelled and grammatically correct samples would be compared. Misspeaking, mishearing, miswriting and misreading are prevalent sources of miscommunication and conflicts. Ya get where I'm comin' from?
