Describe the culture of your company 2

a society is not a business or a company- it is the people who live in a country

(a famous quote by Margaret Thatcher: There’s No Such Thing as Society)

mission is usually associated with Apollo or Star Trek but I can’t find a better word for a mid term work assignment so we’ll go with mission.

amelioration is a French word- it’s also an English word but we would usually say improvement see footnote

see here

sometime should be sometimes

He’s in holiday- he’s on holiday

Still always already again

I still haven’t found what I’m looking for

You’ve already told me that versus You’ve told me that before

He can work again should be- He can still work

footnote

amelioration can refer to improvements in various areas such as:

  • Sanitary Improvement: Enhancing sanitation facilities as a means to build and empower communities.

  • Semantic Change: The transformation of a word’s meaning from pejorative to neutral or positive, like the evolution of “nice.”

  • Continuous Improvement: Ongoing efforts to enhance processes and maintain competitiveness, as seen in business practices.

  • Software Enhancements: Introducing new features or bug fixes in software updates to improve functionality.

Amelioration is often contrasted with pejoration, which is the opposite process where a word’s meaning becomes more negative over time.

Personally I’ve never used the word pejoration, I would say deterioration but perhaps this just demonstrates my impoverished vocabulary.
