Compare and contrast these words: annihilate vs. decimate eradicate vs. massacre

English

Naddik [55]3 years ago

Annihilate and decimate both mean to destroy something or someone, but annihilate means to destroy something as a whole, and at a bigger scale, while decimate doesn't have to mean destroying the whole thing.
Eradicate and massacre are both violent words with the intent to convey destruction, but eradicate is a more general term, as massacre is meant to simple destroy/kill a large group of people.

vfiekz [6]

According to Liza, "ladies" are cleaner than commoners because poor people do not have the luxuries that make bathing pleasant.

Liza says: "I tell you, it's easy to clean up here. Hot and cold water on tap, just as much as you like, there is. Woolly towels, there is; and a towel horse so hot, it burns your fingers. Soft brushes to scrub yourself, and a wooden bowl of soap smelling like primroses. Now I know why ladies is so clean. Washing's a treat for them. Wish they saw what it is for the like of me!"

This quote clearly states that, before the bath she was given by Higgins' housekeeper, bathing for her was not such a pleasant activity (probably she bathed with cold water and unscented sopa, if any.)
