Hi,
I'd like to thank you, Mister Micawber, I wanted to ask just the same question, but can you provide me with some examples where either word is more appropriate than the other. I googled this topic and I read that they are not completely interchangeable and one word is more preferable than the other in certain contexts, so I would appreciate it if you could think of some sentences.

Rather than my trying to think of sentences, why don't you google the two words again and copy some sentences that you find onto this thread?

I just wanted you point out for me where "the more appropriate thing or the difference in meaning" I read about could be shown in one sentence written twice using the two words. Thank you anyway!
