Tool Kit
In the tool kit, the section about ambiguity and vagueness stood out to me. I always thought that they were the same thing. But ambiguity has to do with and unclear meaning of words and those words are used in everyday language which is also something that i\I didn't realize. Vagueness is more just word without a fixed meaning. I also realized that most of my vocabulary either uses ambiguity or vagueness. Which makes me want to choose new words to use. But, then I think that doesn't every word use a little ambiguity or have a little vagueness to it. This is because big to me and to someone else has a million different meanings. I found this section interesting because it give me another way to look at everyday English.
