banal and often shoddy religious art (almost all religious art)

A few common spelling errors and wrong words in phrases.

Take it for granite. Should be ‘granted’.

Superseed - should be supersede.

Heart wrenching - should be ‘rending’ meaning tearing.

Tow the line - should be ‘toe’ - put your toe on the line.

Lightening - should be lightning - electricity in the sky.

Pour over - should be ‘pore’ as when you are studying a document.

Step on the breaks - should be ‘brakes’ - the things that make the car stop.

Peak my interest - should be pique.

Schwärmerei [schvair-muh-RYE]: excessive unbridled enthusiasm or attachment (Hillary or Obama fans)

And then there's "Schadenfreude."

None of those words is in any semblance of common use. One that is that used to stump me all the time is “souvenir”. Brain lock, I guess. I had it tattooed to my frontal lobe and now everything is fi fi fi fine.

Most of these are foreign words!

Not English.
