"quite possible, nee probable, that"
vs
"...quite possible, nay, probable, that"
I always thought it was the latter. Are these the same? i don't think so, but i'm not great with language rules.
- dragonwriter 12y agoNo, "nee" is a French import meaning "born" used to introduce someone's birth name when it differs from their current name (and, sometimes, by analogy, to introduce the original name of a product, etc., when it differs from the current name.) "nay" was the word that was almost certainly intended in GP.
