I had to get out my copy of The Synonym Finder book (1978) by J.I. Rodale Rodale Press, Inc.,
because
as I was reading this old thesaurus, and in the different meanings for copy
there was: revise, revision, rewrite, rewriting, rescript and I was thinking
because that had to do with printing.
In The Synonym Finder for copy: imitation,
reproduction, replica, ectype, transcript, apograph, replication, duplication;
duplicate, carbon, facsimile, carbon copy… reproduce, duplicate, replicate,
transcribe, rewrite, plagiarize.
food for thought: Is there anyone you want to
copy?
Lynn--I can't think of anyone I want to copy. There are characteristics of others I'd love to have...body/facial features of other people I'd love to have for myself...but other than that, no. There's no one person I want to copy.
ReplyDeleteI'm not falling for that trick. Copying is against the rules!
