We are talking about about a personal trait that has been transmitted genetically from father to son. That's why we use the word inherited rather than received. You can receive a message, a parcel or a gift but you inherit characteristics from your parents

Hi Al,
Do you mean "since" or "sense"? The phrase "this makes since" doesn't make any sense ;-)! Thanks, Torsten

i Penelope,
For future information, 'alot' is not correct. this term is always two words: 'a lot'. _________________ "Inside every old person is a young person wondering what happened."

What does 'pick someone up' mean? | 'produce rainfalls' vs. 'carry rainfalls' |
