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.

Example Input: I've never understood the term 'humor me'. Is it meant sarcastically? Please explain.
Example Output: Humor, as a verb, means literally to indulge or tolerate someone's humor (noun), where the noun intends not the modern sense of joking or a transient mood but the now archaic sense of temperament or idiosyncracy or eccentricity. Humor me thus means indulge mein the sense of gimme some slack or gimme a break, but less aggressive than these. It is used most often as an appeal, at once gentle and ironic, to an interlocutor who interrupts one's discourse; it means, approximately, Let's treat what I'm saying (or doing) and you're objecting to as mere personal whimon that basis, allow me to finish, and then you can have your say.

Example Input: I live in Australia, but am expected to use US English in my work. I am therefore used to spelling '-ise' as '-ize'. I was a little surprised to find that 'enterprise' is almost universally spelt with '-ise'. Is there any particular reason that this is the case for this example, when '-ize' is so widely preferred in US English?.
Example Output: For one, because the etymology is different. -ise (-ize) is a causative suffix in formalise, realise etc. (to make something formal, to make something real...) But enterprise is not 'to make something enterpre' or similar (whatever that might mean). The prise bit comes as a past participle of French prendre (to grasp, to take). Another answer is that enterprize is actually attested, and was apparently used more than enterprise in the second half of 18th century (N-gram viewer).

Example Input: Is there a word to describe an object that excels in form and function? I am trying to avoid very general words like great, superb or excellent.
Example Output:
Could it be described as an elegant solution or an engineering marvel?
