Don't use words if you do not know what they mean.

Indeed.

Better yet, don't criticize someone's usage of a word unless you know what it means.

At this point, I no longer give significant credence to the proposition that you are making a good-faith effort at truth-seeking, and you are being very rude. I have no further interest in responding to you.
