Thank you all Dear peers, I appreciate your inputs. I regret that I cannot give each of you many KudoZ points. :)
Edyta Sawin Oct 27, 2008:
committed to live up to the value of something
Frank Wang (asker) Oct 27, 2008:
Great, Edyta. So you'd say "...are fully committed to living (instead of live) up to the value ..."?
Edyta Sawin Oct 27, 2008:
I'd say *live up to*
Frank Wang (asker) Oct 27, 2008:
Word usage Is this way of using the word common to you? Do you use "live by" or "live to" more often?
