versus becomes verse
Versus becomes verse. Have you noticed that all the cool kids these days say " verse " instead of " versus ," and lawyers like to say, " V ," as if it's their best friend or something, which I guess, when you come to think of it, it really is. Ha, lawyers' best friend is Versus , which is abbreviated vs ., and is pronounced verse by most people, but affectionately "Vee" in legal circles. golden material for my funny novel, if I ever start to write it.
