"Attend" is better.... Mar 27

...than "participate" in a general question.

Perspective Mar 27

I'm not sure what to think of the attend vs. participate tangent, but I'd say offhand that if you attend an event you are participating in that event too, and then there are levels of participation. Today I'd go so far as to say that if I attend an event, I am participating by gracing others with my very presence, even if I'm only off in the corner by myself grumbling about how dumb it is to go to events... but that's just because I think so highly of myself... so is it a question of self esteem...

Looking forward to the self esteem vs. ego debate.Collapse

There seems to be plenty of material on the net on the question, so we don't need to waste time here (but _translators_ should really know the difference).

Come on, Angie, we all know Bruce is the only participant (and maybe Max, if he is drumming) and everyone else is just silently standing there, receiving...
