Before flaming me, might it not be an idea to ensure that I have done
something to deserve it?  I am well aware that my dialect of English is
not identical to British English nor yet to American, and I have seen
"precised" enough times that this time I thought it was a proper use of
English that I didn't happen to know.
Just because someone has a European name and is writing from Europe
doesn't mean that person isn't a native speaker of English:  the writer
could be American, for all I can tell to the contrary.

What I wrote was not ' "precised" isn't proper English ', but
	'I don't understand "precised"'.
That's what I wrote, and that, sir, is EXACTLY what I meant.
Well, not exactly, it was an indirect request for clarification.
If Demoen would care to say what it means, I would still like to know.
