[QUOTE=susie123;955003]Hello Mrs Malaprop - think you mean parallel?

Sorry couldn't resist - got my editor's/proofreader's hat on.

TRANSITIVE VERB:
par·a·goned, par·a·gon·ing, par·a·gons
To compare; parallel.
To equal; match.

Means more-or-less the same thing Sue -I was actually translating from Italian.

"Paragonare" is the verb to compare...

Brain dead today...

(Blame Bridget -she's had a bad week!
