Hi,

'Revert' does not mean what you seem to think it means.
Basically, it means 'return to a former state'.
eg After he was released from prison, he reverted to his criminal activities.

Thanks a lot. Emotion: smile

Many Indians use revert in such contexts and I have now realized It's totally wrong.

It should have been "reply" instead "revert".
I was wrong. Emotion: sad

Thanks for sharing your insights.
