Query- (noun)
Definition : a question or a request for information about something
Found in Line 8 in “There Was Once” by Margaret Atwood – ” That’s better. But I have to seriously query this word poor.”
I know understand that this line is trying to say that the second speakers has to really question what the storyteller considers to be “poor”. Having to sleep in the subway stations in cardboards is what truly should be considered “poor”
When else do we hear the word query? Is it a word we use often? Only in certain circumstances?
