Reminds me of how foreign spies were caught during the cold war because they couldn’t pronounce certain words or formulate sentences with words in a customary order
My favorite was how German spies in WW2 were easily caught because they’d just show up in beachside towns out of nowhere (right off the u-boat) in suits and carrying briefcases stuffed with cash.
Yes comrade, clearly any pure blooded, land of freedom American, would know that un-ionized is not correct. It is instead union-ized… which is what happens when you cut onions.
I’ve only ever heard chemists say de-ionized, not un-ionized
Am chemist can confirm, I would look at a coworker real funny if they said un-ionized
It just sounds weird
Still technically correct, but weird.
