Sorry, I can't contain myself any longer. It's something I've noticed
for some time now.
Some areas of the country, possibly countries, have an expression
that I'm curious about.
When you take part"a" off of the motorhome and replace it with
another part, it's referred to as "changing out" the part.
Technically, one is 'changing' the part. Where does the expression
'changing out' come from? A combination of changing and taking
out a part?
Not trying to give anyone a hard time, I just find etymology
interesting.
Some day we can discuss my 'dooryard'.
