For someone who can't live without the almight Thesaurus and Dictionary - Gives me flashbacks of my entry exam to be accepted by the Journalism department at the university. After a couple of minutes of that, spelling simple words like "and" became agonizing. You know? Has that every happened to you? All the sudden ordinary words look all wrong? IP: Logged |

That bunny is adorable!One thing I couldn't find on that site was whether it is: Butt naked or Buck naked?................I was hoping to find the answer there. IP: Logged |

OMG!!!! I stand corrected, hahahaha!The standard expression is “buck naked,” and the contemporary “butt naked” is an error that will get you laughed at in some circles. However, it might be just as well if the new form were to triumph. Originally a “buck” was a dandy, a pretentious, overdressed show-off of a man. Condescendingly applied in the U.S. to Native Americans and black slaves, it quickly acquired negative connotations. To the historically aware speaker, “buck naked” conjures up stereotypical images of naked “savages” or—worse—slaves laboring naked on plantations. Consider using the alternative expression “stark naked" IP: Logged |
