Repeating something wrong doesn’t make it right. Isn’t it like the difference between a folding ruler and a measuring tape? My supervisor during my first apprenticeship always insisted, “There is no folding ruler in the German tool assortment, only measuring tapes or folding rule tapes.” Unfortunately, no customer ever understood me when I used that term. And while we’re at it: Is it a screwdriver or a turn screwdriver?
Or a caliper gauge or a vernier caliper?
My supervisor was very strict about these terms and insisted on using the correct ones. No customer ever understood me.
