I am contemplating this statement.
"If you do something on purpose (not by accident), you do it purposely. But if you have a specific purpose in mind, you are acting purposefully."
(Common Errors in English Usage: The Book 2nd Edition, November, 2008)
I enjoy looking up the meanings of words. I wanted to read the definition of PURPOSELY. I found the above statement in my search.
Now I have two words to contemplate.
A DOUBLE CONTEMPLATION!!
