Oh. Look, they are actually called operative words. I wonder how they work. This isn't an explanation of how they work. I just am wondering out loud. I gotta figure this stuff out too, it isn't straight forward. It actually is on paper I think, but in practice is more complicated.
Okay. So I am big on sounds being important. It creates a different vibrations and does different stuff I dunno. I can't tell you how writing or what. I don't know. This is just a random word I picked. You can do it with all kinds of words. If you don't know what a mortgage is, it might be time to find out of you want one. Or hell, why didn't you look up what you were getting before you got it. Someone lied to you. I mean, they did, but they didn't, that word has implication. You like sign your life over in exchange for it or some shit. I don't actually know the proper interpretation of mortgage, but it is significant enough that you should know. 101 New America.
Like that fucking commercial on fox. I hate it. It is a reverse mortgage ad. It starts the whole thing and says "this is not a trick to take your home", but it actually should say "this is actually a trick to take your home after your dead and resell it the next generation, thanks for playing the inter-generational wealth game"
You just have to look at some of this stuff to start seeing how twisted it all is.
For example. Take the word confirm back to old englsih. You get firmus, or firm.
It says "com" instead of "con". I don't know why. I am sure there is a reason. I don't say it comfirm though, I say it confirm. If I said it comfirm.
I might think comm [message] + [firm]
So is that a post office, a message firm?
or is that a firm message, a solid communication?
Etymology. From Middle English confirmen, confermen, from Old French confermer, from Latin confirmāre (“to make firm, strenghten, establish”), from com- (“together”) + firmare (“to make firm”), from firmus (“firm”).
So you could do this, you could say con [a trick or a bad man] + firm [solid]
You see the problem.

Y'all just keep commfirm-table. I am comfy.
