novel = new.
The implication is more "unique", though, in standard English usage. I know the dictionary/thesaurus uses "original, new" as a definition, but it's not "new" as in "I bought a new car", but "a new experience", which is roughly equivalent to "a unique experience".
I understand those subtle differences, and I maintain that "new" is a better word in this context.
Yes, upon further reflection, I agree that "new" probably is a better word choice. Jim -- Jim Henderson Please keep on-topic replies on the list so everyone benefits -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: opensuse-project+owner@opensuse.org
