Another splendid example! I mean really, Who would want a dress that couldn't follow instructions? I mean, what are the little b&w numbered shoe outlines & arrows on the floor for, if not so that you can follow the sequence & dance the night away?


Barley worn - Yuppers, only worn to Brit Maypole dances, by a spritely little old pensioner, guv! It's all on the up & up! (In her spare time, she was like a busker, y'know?)

From a news article about a young boy who had to leave an airplane because of a presumed allergy to dogs:

"A kid whose mother said she understood why they had to debark from the plane, but could not fathom her fellow human beings’ reaction."

Debark was used again in the same article a few lines later.

Nothing wrong there:

debark
dēˈbärk
verb
leave a ship or aircraft.
unload (cargo or troops) from a ship or aircraft.
