Concur !!!

"concur"

well i heard this word for the 1st time, when i came to jatland... [my english still evolving [pit-stop]

in order to have a check on my inquisitiveness nd to keep a break on my curiosity, before the cat is killed... i thot of referring a dictionary nd found the following meanings...

1. To be of the same opinion/ to agree
2. To act together/ to cooperate.
3. To occur at the same time

often times i have seen this word being used/abused so badly. folks have tendency to quote a post, saying... "i concur, word by word" without sparing a thought as to what meaning the post carry or for tht matter whether it carry a meaning at all?

so what is it, that prompts so many folks here to use/abuse this word?
is it their ego tht pumps them to concur?
or is it their goody goody image they are trying to impose by concurring to one gud post, posted by mr. xyz?

and while doing so...

are they referring to meaning no. 1?
or they refer to meaning no. 2... obviously if they are refering to meaning no. 2 the 3rd meaning is bound to follow.
wotsay?... wud appreciate posts from ppl who concur

with me... obviously in the 1st meaning of concur

Dear Brahm,

I have also heard this word first time from one of the most active and sincere member Sunita Ji in various posts..
From that I got the actual meaning of CONCUR from Sunita ji which is same as ur meaning no. 1.
But i didnt get a example of using it as second meaning...
May be you will provide a link for my help in understanding the point you want to express through your post regarding the second use.

Thanx in advance...

Brahm ji,
The meaning of the word is option 1., and the implied meaning is option 2.

I just don’t CONCUR with both of you about mentioning my name. I’ve used ths word “CONCUR” JUST ONCE here on JL and in my life out of JL. Now, reason to that might be as follows-
1. I don’t want to concur with others
2. I really don’t come across something to concur
3. I don’t find other’s opinion EXACTLY what I opine
4. I don’t find it difficult to type what “METHINKS” rather than just CONCUR
5. I don’t concur to show that I’m equally intelligent/Dumb, Nice/Irascible , agreeable/disagreeable

Brahm I don’t know what has motivated you to start this thread but I was motivated after a friend sent me numerous links of threads “how someone is obsessed with this word and JUST CONCUR with others thoughts every now n then.

Me thinks, to CONCUR with someone you have to have a good understanding/ telepathy or a STRONG SIXTH SENSE. Even if I concur with somebody STILL I won’t shirk writing my own thoughts may be with a slight change. As it wont satisfy my soul just write I concur with you or what you said and get cleared of. I’ve a mind of my wn which generates ideas that rarely match with someone’s and even if they do match they are understood wrongly.

So, i would rather not like to concur on 90-95% of my posts just to make my presence felt here on JATLAND and in the THREADS just for the heck of it Whats the hiccup of not writing your own thoughts? I mean, how can YOU just use one word CONCUR? So do you concur or not

I just don’t CONCUR with both of you about mentioning my name.

I concur with you on this sentence exclusively and never concur with anyone who just induces personal names and it is not good when a thread is just in its infancy stage which can lead to controversies instead of some discussion on the subject itself.

PS : I just used the word 'Concur' first time at jatland so far

 

[sachinb]

Bebe,,,I Concur with you Alphabet by Alphabet

"Kudos" to you for clarifying your thoughts.

You "Rock On",,,,,They also use this word frequently:rock

carry a meaning at all?

I checked the dictionary before posting here and found that i should concur with you on the actual meaning(s) of concur. I came across so many times at Jatland when some member ab(used) this term so often. Here at Jatland, the use of concur directly proprotional to some occurrences ONLY, irrespective of its actual meaning and substance.

so what is it, that prompts so many folks here to use/abuse this word?

People here,generally, ab(use) this word to get even or (you can say) to neutralize some others posts which doesn't seems fit in their way of thinking ( .. substantial or not hardly matters ).

Their concurrences are directly proportional to some occurrences. Sometimes, the concurrence happens due to some occurrences while some other time occurrences leads to their concurrence. As simple as that ... no logic ... no reason .... no substance (full stop).

is it their ego tht pumps them to concur?

Ego can lead to concur everything which, in general, people don't want to concur. Ego can lead people to change sides like chameleons. This Ego can force anyone to concur the things which doesn't contain any substance or meaning and they just concur the POST without concurring their own minds.

or is it their goody goody image they are trying to impose by concurring to one gud post, posted by mr. xyz?

Good Goody ... yeah ... another main reason behind this.

You will find many universal appreciaters here whose universal appreciative attitude doesn't need any introduction. No, no .. don't get me wrong. It doesn't mean that they ( read universal appreaciaters ) appreciate each and every good posts but here it means that they appreciate some Mr. XYZ's posts Universally whether they contain some substance or not. ( even they can appreciate their thank you and welcome posts too ).

If someone really like to appreciate someone's post or point of views then he/she will, certainly, take pain to write few words ... like .. what and why they are appreciating in their post/views instead of just concurring word to word.

and while doing so...

are they referring to meaning no. 1?
or they refer to meaning no. 2... obviously if they are refering to meaning no. 2 the 3rd meaning is bound to follow.
wotsay?... wud appreciate posts from ppl who concur

with me... obviously in the 1st meaning of concur

By concurring like this they meant that they agree with the member to act together for some momentary occurrence with an expiry date.

Enough for the time being .... would like to pitch in later if i feel like something to concur ...sometime.

 

[anilsinghd]

Not sure if i have used the word a lot over here , generally i prefer to say :

"I second xyz post/thoughts/person " !

And that means that on the particular topic i agree with the view of the person in question!

Brahm would be great if you can also give us an insight and historical perspective on what's cooking in ya mind over this word "concur" !

 

[sunitahooda]

Aww....gotcha ....so its your fault since someone used to second someone's posts so it was ok and as soon the person saw you've also started to use this word then that person opted for "CONCUR" instead of "SECOND your post"

P.S.- God just hope i'm not the culprit THIS TIME....Brahm plz spare me i'll never use this EVER again

Not sure does not mean that i am actually the culprit . I am innocent !

Brahm sir , please give me a lifeline by saying that i was not the one of whom's concur you picked it !

 

[sachinb]

I "Concur" with you alphabet by alphabet including smilies. "Kudos" to you for your commitment not to use the word "Concur" again.......lekin kabhi concur karna pad gaya to kyaa karogi:rock

[sachinb]

If some one can help me on this,,,,,,English is really a funny language,,,,,and when it comes to giving respect to our seniors then most of us are in dillema that what word to use,,,,,,,like if some body wants to talk about his Uncle, Grand Father etc then how he should write,,,,,it should be "They" or it should be simply "He".

Hindi mein to ham apne se badho ke liye aksar "Aap" shabd ka paryog karte hain.

 

[anilsangwan]

Sachin bhai... mujhe yeh English laguage mein kami najar aati hai.... kayi word aise hain jo respectful or non respectful manner mein same hi use hotey hain.... For example... "You" looks like "tum" in Hindi.... Lekin jaisa ki aap ne kaha... Tum aur Aap mein kaafi fark hai.... and English language uses again the word "You" for "Aap" as well.... same is for "He",....

Kya hum kuchh naya soch saktey hain... Like "They" for "He" ,,,... and "We" for "I" ..... For example.... They is a great person...or We is fine!!

[sachinb]

Anil Bhai,

I dont see any harm in using the word "They" instead of you/He for our seniors. That way we will be able to give more respect also.

Aapne sahi kahaa ki "You" kahna bada hi ajeeb lagta hai,,,,and it looks like a sign of disrespect especially when we are using it for some very senior person.

I Concur Bro

Then i'll try to agree or just second with that post. Brahm still hasn't clarified what was the motive of this thread

[brahmtewatia]

"concur" - the historical perspective !

Brahm I don’t know what has motivated you to start this thread but I was motivated after a friend sent me numerous links (... bang-on, sumthing cooking ) of threads “how someone is obsessed with this word and JUST CONCUR with others thoughts every now n then.

Me thinks, to CONCUR with someone you have to have a good understanding/ telepathy or a STRONG SIXTH SENSE. (... i hope you dont hit this strong 6th sense of telepathy, every now nd then as is the case with many) Even if I concur with somebody STILL I won’t shirk writing my own thoughts may be with a slight change. As it wont satisfy my soul just write I concur with you or what you said and get cleared of. I’ve a mind of my wn which generates ideas that rarely match with someone’s and even if they do match they are understood wrongly.

Brahm would be great if you can also give us an insight and historical perspective on what's cooking in ya mind over this word "concur" !

Then i'll try to agree or just second with that post. Brahm still hasn't clarified what was the motive of this thread

tks for the valuable inputs by dear members... nd concurring with me, at least on the 1st meaning of the word. as i go further, to give the reasoning as to what is cooking in my mind let me also mention, that within this thread nd the replies so far... u got the 2nd usage of the word "concur"

it so happened tht i was going thru the post of mr. anurag dahiya (post = http://www.jatland.com/forums/showpost.php?p=206771&postcount=58) the views expressed by anurag were picture perfect nd righteous in platonic thinking... for a moment, i was reminded of this word. (... obviously, by then i knew the 1st meaning only, thts why i said in the starting post... my english still evolving ). i was abt to quote the post to say... "i concur word by word"... but then, i thought... hello mr. brahmit hang on !!!... as i realized tht anurag himself has quoted another post, nd i was going the same way.

it took me a while, to reach the 2nd stage (prakashit)... as i realized... you dont have to concur to this, you have an all-together different stand on the issue. (pls. note this >>> honestly, in my heart, i concurred with the views... word by word... indeed a very good post by dahiya saheb )

my mind was perplexed... nd just thought to check up the dictionary on the usage of this word... phir kya tha... i found other different meanings, nd in fact more appropriate meanings of the word concur... the keeda, further inspired as i realized that the usage of this word on JL, is more often seen in the second sense rather then the first.

p.s. : on offense to anyone, just my thoughts... concur with me in 1st sense or 2nd... its yr take.

i concur to you in the 1st meaning.

 

[poonam]

Bummer....

Well, I dont think there is anything wrong with the word or its usage, even here on JL!
What a waste..of..anyway...fogettt it..
