Apr 25, 2015 · To me, there is a difference between "vouch" and "guarantee". To vouch for someone, you are stating that because of your relationship, you have knowledge that their character is good. However, I think if I introduce you to someone and vouch for them, I am leaving open the possibility that you and that person might not get along for whatever reason.
Apr 12, 2011 · A website I'm working on has a 30 day money back guarantee(y?). If you don't like your purchase, within the first 30 days, you can get your money back. Is that a guarantee or a guaranty? If I was going to make a little advertising picture for it, would I say "30 day money back guaranty" or "30 day money back guarantee"? I am leaning towards ...
These words can be used regardless of tense, either past, present, or future. The difference between them is generally in connotation, or slight differences in meaning effected by word choice.

As a result of the US airport security I don't ...
I must admit that I am confused with these two words. For so long a time, I have been using them interchangeably. I have consulted the dictionary (of course) but I can't seem to pinpoint the glaring difference between the two (if there is any). This may be similar to this question.
Besides the singular/plural difference there's always some confusion as to attributive forms, e.g., parent meeting vs. parents meeting or parent's meeting vs. parents' meeting.

Apr 13, 2017 · You say it's the same as "only if". But it is not. "Only if", as you say, means "no guarantee he will yell if you fall". The first if provides just that guarantee. In other words, 3 is a combination of 1 and 2, and you simply failed to combine your correct reasoning for 1 and 2 into the correct reasoning for 3.
