If a train goes missing do they send out a search engine? Sorry, that's a whole different thread.

I can't disagree with any of this. In no way, shape or form.

To 'understand' is to comprehend the meaning of something while to 'comprehend' is to understand the meaning of it.

I recently had a conversation with someone where he talked about a friend who neither "comprehended or understood" what he was trying to say. I then asked him, politely, what the actual difference was between the meaning of the words "comprehend" and "understand."He was neither able to help or assist. Can anyone advise?

I gets me when people say 'begs the question' when what they really mean is 'raises the question'. Grr!
