Cleave.

It either means to stick closely, remain faithful etc.
or
To split apart or cut.

So there are two meanings, with almost opposite definitions, the roots of which stem from different words. But in English, end up with the same spelling.


Spare, meaning something extra, such as a spare tire or dollar.

Or, spare meaning something lean, such as ribs or a person.


Sanction: to forbid or punish something

Sanction: to condone or permit something

I am ashamed Dive thanks for taking me to task,I have tried,after all I did shut my flooring firm down in 2013 to become her carer, doing anything that she couldnt manage but as u pointed out I was sitting on my fat arse far to often leaving christine to sit and listen to her stories on audible, it has probably been down to sheer luck that I learned to cook so mrs badger didnt have to eat ready meal etc. Its a wonder social services havent come in and put her in a home, cheers dive for putting me right.p.s. your expert opinion on caring for people will help countless others Divegeester youre a C S ........A Certified Saint.
