Silly Dictionaries

Don’t you find it very silly how dictionaries use the word that you are trying to define in the definition? What is up with that? SHOOT

Have you ever noticed that people (at least I do) say something like “Don’t you think that’s really mean?” and when you expand the “don’t” then it turns out as “Do not you think that’s really mean?”. That’s so weird! but it works! If I were to rearrange those words and have it work, I believe I would do it like this: “Do you not think that’s really mean?”
