I'm wondering if your friends aren't using the word "arbitrary" when what they mean to say is "replaceable." A lot of words in the English language are synonymous. In other words, we have a lot of words that mean the exact same thing, so essentially, a person could arbitrarily choose one of the many words that mean the same thing and not change the meaning of a sentence.
You have to be careful about doing that, though, as krikkit pointed out, because some words have a close meaning to another word, but can only be used in certain contexts, and will sound odd if used any other way. Jam it back in, in the dark. |
