Yes, but that seems so...micromanagerial. Are you going to write individual definitions for all of these?—

How slow
How big
How small
How long
How wide
How old
How lazy
How embarrassing
How petty

Hi Mister Micawber,
Thank you for your reply.
No, not really just that one and the typical ones, 'how much, how many, how often'. that all.
One more to go, to write 'velocity' instead of 'rapidity' would be inappropriate, wouldn't it?

Could you tell the meaning of 'micromanagerial' please?

No, but I'm sure that I would use 'speed'.

Oh, I just made it up ad hoc.

Hi Mister Micawber,
Thank you for your reply.
Will you agree on this definition?
Ad Hoc is a Latin phrase and literally means 'For this' or 'Towards This'. When one confers from this term, it directly translates to 'For this purpose (only)'.
