Not an “of” question

If X “comprises A, B, C” would you assume that the 3 item list is complete, and that there are no other items?

Is “comprises” (or “comprised of”) equivalent to “consists of” or “includes”? (ie There may be a D)?

I’m asking for an “encyclopaedic” answer, of course. MBG02 (talk) 04:23, 8 August 2018 (UTC)

Oliver Kamm quote capital N neither in middle of sentence?

Hi all,

The quote in the article has a capital N for neither in the middle of the sentence: "They are long-established, and Neither is unclear in the context; both are legitimate."

I don't have a copy of the reference; can someone confirm if this is how he did it? And if so, how is this handled? [sic]? I'm a tad new here. :-)

He doesn't say "they are long-established".[1] Fixed the quote accordingly. Nardog (talk) 18:10, 17 January 2019 (UTC)
