And my all-time favorite, a mother's cri de coeur:
my 7 month old son has a husky voice why*Incidentally: why can't English have a single word that means "and/or"? Is there any language that does? The construction is so graceless, but I find myself using it daily. (You say "ambiguous," I say "flexible.")

hi love,
i take your postscript as real, and not trolling. and i offer you this: "and/or" is for unhappy bureaucrats and the ironic.
if you're being technical, the single word for "and/or" you seek is sometimes "or" and is sometimes "and."
example1 ("or" allows for "and"): is it raining or sunny out? response: both! there should be a word for that!
example2 ("and" implies "or"): you may bring your cousins and brothers to the fair. response: ok, thanks i'll bring both, if they can make it, but i think my brother is in the army.
counter example ("or" can be limited): i am either a boy or a girl. response: why not both? reply: because i said "either" and that makes the "or" exclusive.
counter example (both): your sister and your wife must both come! response: ok, boss.
klem, øyv.
Whoa! I, too, keep track of my google search keywords, but yours are way, way better! The best one I've had of recent weeks is
"I ate a carrot and it made my anxiety go away."

Man, how does one keep their google search terms? These are great!
In German there is a similar word: beziehungsweise, abbreviated "bzw." If you look it up in a dictionary it won't say "and/or," but it is used in nearly the same way.
I was at the festivities in Tappan Square as well! Great description of the event :)
