alexander koryagin | Anton Shepelev | Stephen Leacock again |

Anton Shepelev -> Alexander Koryagin! I read your message from 04.07.2018 11:23 about Stephen Leacock again. AK>> Probably, it should have been more correct in this way: AK>> "Can I substitute ... for ...". AS> Depends on how you fill the ellipses. This way: "Can I substitute 'by' for 'of' in 'progress inspired of the woods and hills'?" AK>> Although, taking in mind that both the meanings are AK>> synonymous, "for", IMHO, should be OK for both. AS> But are not synonymous. In order to replace A with B you AS> have to substitute B for A. Indeed, it should be then: "Can I change 'by' for 'of' in 'progress inspired of the woods and hills'?" PS: I was useful to repeat the meaning of "substitute". ;-) Bye, Anton!
