摘要

In Through the Looking Glass, Humpty Dumpty tells Alice, rather scornfully, "When I use a word it means just what I choose it to mean - neither more nor less." Well, fine, but it would still be a good idea to make clear to others what that meaning is. This is often done informally by means of "conventions",which are defined as "established usage". But who does the establishing? Questions related to definitions are often regarded as pedantic - nowadays a pejorative term - because the answer is "obvious". But is it? A few examples illustrate some possible pitfalls.
