herewiss13Recuperate. Assuming I'm spelling that right, can anyone tell me when a person is supposed to cuperate in the first place? I certainly can't recall ever cuperating before an onerous task, after which I found it necessary to recuperate.
Interestingly enough, the etymology does _not_ appear to be connected to "recoup" which really has a suprisingly similar, though not identical, meaning.
And, along those same lines of prefix puzzlement, I've just come up with the most horrendous pun, and no good outlet for it. So here will have to do:
The Balcony Scene and its aftermath in Romeo & Julient is a shockingly explicit act of sexual fenestration.
