errola commented on the word gravets
As in 'within the gravets of Colombo'. This is colonial British usage, and may mean or be related to 'purlieus'.

errola commented on the word advocant
I heard something like this being said by Anthony Lewis on a FORA.tv interview. In its context it referred to someone advocating a particular position. I thought it was another way of saying 'advocate', but it may have been the latter word after all.
Thanks very much.I greatly enjoy engaging with WORDNIK.
