Dominate instead of dominant.
No, there, they're and their are not interchangeable.
There is a real difference between imply and infer.
One I saw just recently was 'exonerate confidence'. I wonder what confidence was accused of doing?

We did some meth last night in my boyfriend and "I's" apartment. Then we took my 5 kids out for a nutritious happy meal and some mountain dew.

Okay here goes....

1. The word "gay" used to be a good word that meant a good state of being. Now it's used to describe a chosen way of life.

2. Fiance used to mean "betrothed" indicating a relationship in which both parties were committed to one another and were planning to be married in the reasonably near future. Now it seems to be used as a title for the latest live-in.
