Doesn’t inflammable mean the same as flammable?
English must be a very odd language to learn. |  | | |

So it does! Er, what's the correct term? I'll edit my post with my nearest guess.
Correct terms would be: fireproof, flameproof, incombustible, non-flammable. [Post edited 1 Mar 2019 17:02]

"Cleave" is another good one which means to join or it means to split.
And another I ran into the other day was "bi-weekly" which means twice a week or every two weeks depending on who you ask so it's basically useless. |  |

Sell them inflamable ones and see how the ******s get on trying to burn them.
Low Tax Chloe* nailed it
It's a fake march. They're getting bused between legs, missing chunks out and having to pay Nige £50 for the privilege. Same old kippers, always cheating.
(*not the real Low Tax Chloe. For some reason she decided to change twitter names this week and so this enterprising person saw the gap for a parody account  ). |  |

"When cooking over a gas stove, avoid wearing loose, (flammable/inflammable) clothing that could catch fire easily." Which word is correct: flammable or inflammable?
Trick question: both flammable and inflammable are correct, as they both mean "capable of being easily ignited and of burning quickly." This makes no sense to the Modern English speaker. In English, we think of in- as a prefix that means "not": inactive means "not active," inconclusive means "not conclusive," inconsiderate means "not considerate." Therefore, inflammable should mean "not flammable."
i-fell-into-a-burning-ring-of-fire
What's the difference between 'flammable' and 'inflammable'?
That would make sense–if inflammable had started out as an English word. We get inflammable from the Latin verb inflammare, which combines flammare ("to catch fire") with a Latin prefix in-, which means "to cause to." This in- shows up occasionally in English words, though we only tend to notice it when the in- word is placed next to its root word for comparison: impassive and passive, irradiated and radiated, inflame and flame. Inflammable came into English in the early 1600s.
Things were fine until 1813, when a scholar translating a Latin text coined the English word flammable from the Latin flammare, and now we had a problem: two words that look like antonyms but are actually synonyms. There has been confusion between the two words ever since.
What do you do? To avoid confusion, choose flammable when you are referring to something that catches fire and burns easily, and use the relatively recent nonflammable when referring to something that doesn't catch fire and burn easily. Our files indicate that use of flammable and nonflammable has increased in print over the last few decades, while use of inflammable has decreased. |  |

Is it published twice in one week, or every other week. Or a bit of both?
Actually, it could be called A Bit Of Both. | |

I thought bi-weekly is twice a week, fortnightly would be every two weeks imo |  |
