A brief rant:
One should not use the word quality alone when one wishes to praise someone or something. In such instances the word quality requires a modifier, such as high or good or excellent.
Thank you.

Pink may be a girly-girl color, but granite is strong, solid and durable. Plus, pink granite is part of what makes up Acadia, a favorite place for my husband and me.

Also, it's unique or it isn't unique. It's NEVER quite unique or rather unique or anything else.
and the reason for your "rant"?????
Gail
Hi DMM -
Yes! Another good one to remember!
;o)

Hi Gail -
Lately, I've been hearing it used alone quite frequently as in "He's a real quality pitcher." or "We'll be looking for quality candidates to fill the position." I reflexively ask the question in my mind "Pray tell, what sort of quality do you mean?"
It's not quite as wince inducing as "irregardless", "aks" for ask or "ath-a-lete", but it's in my top ten!
;o)

paprika pronounced paparika.
nuclear as nulclear
Gail
Hi Gail -
Yes, for some reason rightwingers have staked out nuke-u-ler as their personal point of pride. Perhaps they think they sound "folksy" if they sound uneducated.
I haven't run across Pap-a-rika. I wonder if it's a regional thing where you live now?
Then of course there is "obnoxious". After what, three or four decades, I still hate to hear it.
Who says I can't hold a grudge?
;o)

My favorite is still irregardless.
Its NOT a word!! lol
Hi Kate -
That's one to which I have an involuntary shudder come over me whenever I hear it! Very awkward in social situations!
