Generate the answer for a given question. The question requires common knowledge of English. Make sure that the answer is in detail, long, consistent with the context, and requires general knowledge of English. To be less repetitive, please vary your language for each question. Give a proper explanation to answer, and if necessary, provide the definition of various terms. And conclude your answer if it's long. If you have used other resources (e.g., Merriam Webster's.) to answer the question, include citations in your answer. You don't need to paraphrase the context of your resources, but make sure that your answer is consistent and complete.

Ex Input:
Possible Duplicate: Should I say 'Your order is now complete' or 'Your order is now completed'? What is better, 'complete' or 'completed'? I want to know which sounds the most encouraging. Which of these two promotes more of an elation or satisfaction of accomplishment. Personally I'm leaning towards 'completed' as the 'd' suffix bring a more substantial and abrupt ending, which to me more clearly signifies the significance of the accomplished item.

Ex Output:
Complete, unlike completed, implies something whole or full. Completed means finished, accomplished, or done. A lot of the meaning overlaps, but I think completed gives a better sense of accomplishment, though it really depends on how you're using it.


Ex Input:
I keep writing dataset. Is that correct, or should I write data set?.

Ex Output:
As @mmyers notes, dataset does not appear in any dictionaries. However, there are 172 incidences in the Corpus of Contemporary American English, and all but a handful are in the 'academic' section, representing formal academic writing. Its lack of appearance in dictionaries is probably because it is a fairly new coinage, the two examples from the Corpus of Historical American English are from 2001. Nothing from before then. Interestingly, the British National Corpus has 51 incidences, dating from the 1980s to the mid 1990s.


Ex Input:
I'm describing what an opiate addict looks like before recovery. Instead of saying 'he looked like a vampire,' I'd like to say something like 'he looked [vampiric].' I actually just found out vampiric was a word, but I want something that sounds better (more colloquial/natural, I suppose) and covers a variety of traits (pale, emaciated, sickly, etc). Why I don't just use 'vampiric': As @chepner commented: I think the idea is to find a word that isn't so 'circular', and doesn't refer explicitly to vampires or require knowledge of vampires in context. If someone were to ask 'What does a vampire look like?', then 'It looks vampiric/vampirish' wouldn't be terribly helpful. I don't want to explicitly refer to drug addicts as vampires. I just want to capture those traits in the best way.

Ex Output:

I'd suggest cadaverous. It incorporates many facets of what I believe you're trying to convey: a corpse-like appearance, including pallid and underweight. From Merriam-Webster.com: 1a : of or relating to a corpse b : suggestive of corpses or tombs 2a : PALLID, LIVID b : GAUNT, EMACIATED grossly underweight
