gratitude toward. These conflict and stand out from delicate sounding words, for example, father, climate, as well, ever, him. This blend, together with strange grammar and a dash of similar sounding word usage (weekday climate, saved money fires blast), has a tendency to make a blend of music not out and out concordant, again an impression of the environment inside the home.
