Episode 26 - Fit/Match/Suit

“The Cufflink Clue”

Dearest English Aesthete,

In English, Fit, Match, and Suit all relate to how things go together, but they focus on completely different criteria: Dimensions, Aesthetics, and Appropriateness.

These three verbs are easily confused because in many languages, a single verb covers all three meanings.

If grammar precision be the food of love, read on dear reader.

Yours faithfully,
Thomas
