[Sca-cooks] remove vs course

[tom.vincent at yahoo.com]

As another example:  In Britain, people go to hospital.  In the US, people go to the hospital.
 
Nouns become verbs and verbs become nouns (cruise, walk, ride, etc.).  That's a fairly standard feature of a living language.
 
Here's more extensive documentation on course vs. remove, "Of Course It's 'Course'!"; or "Remove 'Remove'" , from 1996:  http://dialup.pcisys.net/~mem/course.html

just as a point of data, course is used by lots of people up here in AnTir, especially the 
cooks :).

remove seems to be "old school" sca, along with feasto-crat, merchants row and other such SCA 
based terms.

personally, I think whoever is organizing the event gets to call it whatever they want ;) tho I 
tend to promote "course" meself.

--Anne-Marie, who also thinks the word "feast" is a noun, as in "we went to THE feast",  
or "ate THE feast" not a (whatever term it is being used as) when people say "went to feast" 
(no THE. what the heck is up with that?) and while we're there, when did "disrespect" become a 
verb? *pant pant pant*..... ;)
