anonymous · Answer

if they are on the same question that i am, i believe they are talking about  "the importance of being earnest"

anonymous · Answer

yes. I'm talking about that play. please help!

anonymous · Answer

I'm familiar with the play, but not so familiar that I recall when that word is used and why. Where does it appear in the play? What is happening at that moment? How many times does it appear? I can help you think through its significance, but you'll have to meet me halfway.
