TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
After considering the issues raised in the preceding debate regarding offensive terminology, I have taken the liberty of compiling a list of very naughty words that should no longer be used in any form of communication.
* sextet
* titillate
* Volvo
* kumquat
* pianist (may be pronounced too quickly, leading to unfortunate confusion)
Feel free to add to this short list as you feel necessary. I hope you all find this useful. <g!>
