What do you think was intended by this expression? If an animal is not
domestic and not wild, what is it?
Do they use a specialised meaning of "feral" to mean "formerly
domesticated, but now gone wild"? Oh, I checked and see that is meaning
2b, but how is the reader to know whether it's 2b or not 2b?

That makes sense after the insertion of a comma after "name". I was

I fear you are right. I have been working on eliminating commas from my written

I was wondering what the porpoise was to this thread.
Just having a whale of a time.
So that's what everybody's dugong. I thought it was Saturday
manatee time at the music hall.
Bloody hell, Robin! You otter be ashamed.
If I say I am, I amphibian, but I guess you newt.
Ecod! I must find a reply eftsoons.
I guess I snoekered you.
That's an audaceous claim.

William, I really thought that was a fine ending to the thread.
Inspired, even. It is a shame that others can't recognise an elegant
ending, but must add more inanities, even though they will have other
chances in other posts. So, this is my little, "Well done." and I wish
it could have really been the finale. I feel you were robbed of that.
Good job.

I share this view, to some extent, but it has to be recognised that -
however appropriate, authoritative, pithy or elegant - no-one ever has
the last word in aue.
