  • Parlance: A way or manner of speaking; vernacular; idiom; speech, especially a formal discussion or debate
    • Not surprisingly, corporate thinking about the sustainability of the Earth as a planetary system came into more common parlance with the ‘the Spaceship Earth’ metaphor, which was popularized by many statesmen and scientists in the 1960s. (Timothy W. Luke) 
  • Intersperse: To scatter here and there or place at intervals among other things
    • In deviance research scholars have asserted that while personal and relational characteristics can explain interspersed and isolated incidents of deviance, its rate is primarily influenced by the overarching social structure.  (Charalampos Mainemelis)
