You're all piss and wind. You act all arty-farty but you're nothing but a boofhead!

In the largest English speaking country in the world, that's what it means. So who gives a fuck what you think?
When they use the disclaimer "in the United States" it means...
Well you can work it out.
Words mean different things in different countries, and apparently the European meaning wasn't even important enough to include in the definition anyway.
I've seen Brits make a hash out of language in the US. Some poor Brit girl in one of my college classes leaned over and asked a classmate if he had a rubber she could borrow. THAT didn't go over as she intended.
OK, but entrée is French.![]()

We're arguing over the English definition of it are we not?
Holy shit...I think you are on to something! It is almost as if.....languages take from other languages, and create their own words or meanings. Imagine if there were English words taken from Latin.......
It is almost if....language is evolving. Now, imagine if within each language, there were different "dialects" even!
I don't call it a starter, I was using terminology posted in this thread.

So you're accusing us of incorrect word usage, and when I post a dictionary definition backing up our use of the word you ignore that and insist that we're still using it wrong. What are you basing your "proper" definition of the word on? Your cultural understanding of what the word means?
Entrée means entry.
You explain how that is relevant to the middle of a meal.
What like "we have no idea what this moon language is lets just take random word from it"?
When your meal has only one stage, and that stage came about after they trimmed off the middle and end stages you're left with the...

Am I drunk?
What is even more amazing is that one word can...get this...have more than one meaning!

Not yet, just a bit buzzed. Neckbeard is with you and you are playfully arguing about Elton John. There is a twinkle in his eye. You ordered mozzarella sticks to start the evening, but later you're probably going to enjoy a bit of sausage for the main course.
They're all ning-nongs anyway.
I thought the accepted term was Ching-chongs?
I'm just having fun with this book right now
