World Market
 
Daughter actually suggested we go there today. Now she has a new favorite
store!

I used to go to the one in Lynnwood WA and I bought things to make gift
baskets. Then in CA, we got a little dining table there. But I haven't
been able to get husband or daughter into there since and I've not been near
one when I was by myself.

I saw a lot of great little things, food and otherwise that I will get
closer to Christmas when we make the surprise ball. And daughter got some
Hawaiian Kettle Corn. She also really liked the little pepper shaped
bakers. She wants to get them for making stuff bell peppers. Totally
unnecessary, I know. But cute! We didn't get them today but I suspect one
day I may be getting them as a gift.

Foo birds. I just had a birthday.

A lot of what they had foodwise was stuff I could get elsewhere for less
money but they did have some things I hadn't seen anywhere else. I was told
at one time they had gluten free pasta, but I didn't see any today.

The "World Market" store in Michigan on Hall Road also closed it's doors.
Mostly they had kitchen decor. Nothing there impressed me. I prefer to go
to "Sur La Table" for kitchen gadgets.

Why do people say just husband or daughter or son and not use the word
"my" before? You wouldn't say, I can't get dog to lie down or I lost
cat the other day.

World Market is where I buy high-quality chocolate for cooking. They've also

It is the common usage not only in Britain but also in Canada to
say "in hospital." While I lived there I asked innumerable times
and no satisfactory answer, I would really like to know why this
difference exists.

I interpret it to be like saying "in treatment" rather than "in the

I do not think so: in love, in transit, in school... "at work" are words
that represent an action. Like " in jail" where "in the county jail" the
first sounds like an action, where the later sounds like "inside a place".
The word "hospital" is a noun, a place that does not represent an action,
not a verb, So therefore "in my book", "in the hospital" is the correct
usage of the phrase. "in hospital" just does not sound right and possibly
to ovoid the antonym of "inhospitable".

Wikipedia has come up with an answer of sorts; they say it just exists,
so the
"Grammar of the word differs slightly depending on the dialect.
In the U.S., hospital usually requires an article; in Britain and elsewhere,
the word normally is used without an article when it is the object of a
preposition and when referring to a patient ("in/to the hospital" vs.
"in/to hospital"); in Canada, both uses are found."
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hospital

Treatment is a process; a hospital is a place.

Nouns identifying processes are generally derived from verbs (e.g., repair,
construction, cooking) and do not require articles. Normal nouns generally
require articles to identify how specific they are -- e.g., the hospital, a
hospital.

Note that hospitalization, being a process, does not require an article. And we
in the US would generally say "under treatment."

English is a very complex language, but even so, Brits are just odd. They
wouldn't say something was "in box," or "in bathroom", but they'll say that
someone is "in hospital." 8)

I think the British do it better, and I've adopted their idiom. If I
told you that my saffron is in the box, you would probably wonder
"which box"? Wouldn't it be more logical to report that someone is in
A hospital, rather than in THE hospital? There are three major
hospitals within a few miles of where I live in the suburbs. What
would "the hospital" mean here?

Before we were married (and for some time afterward) my wife worked
out of an office in Cornell New York Hospital. I once told a mutual
acquaintance that I would be visiting her later. Asked where, I said
"In the hospital." He knew where she worked, but I nevertheless had to
explain that she wasn't ill. From then on, "in the hospital" is a
location and "in hospital" implies patienthood.

They also refer to a corporation as a plural instead of a singular. I
like the differences in language because it's easy to spot they are
British without needing to ask.

The so-called "nouns of magnitude". I started a long discussion on those
here a year or so ago.

Persons who know more than one language have a better grasp of grammar
overall. I conjecture the same might be true if one knows more than one
distinct dialect of a language.

If you'd said you were going to *meet* (not visit) her in the
hospital, he would have understood because he already had the context
that she had a job there. Now you use a foreign affectation thinking
it clarifies? No way.

*Meet* her in the hospital = job
*Visit* her in the hospital = patient

Notice "the" was used in both phrases and it doesn't confuse the issue
of job vs patient.

The elevator went up.

"just" is one of those meaningless words used to add importance to
what is obviously not... I use it myself, most everyone does in
general conversation... I [just] ate dinner places applying the
precise definition on the listener... does just mean recently or only.

The word "just" isn't used in formal writing... with just that can
mean the elevator 'recently' went up or that it was an 'up only'
elevator. Those who have important information to impart don't use
the word just, it makes what one says much too nebulous... when a
politician starts inserting 'just' into their speech it's because they
haven't a clue what they're talking about and so that their audience
can't hold them to anything specific.

In "The elevator just went up," "up" is an adverb, not a preposition.
