 SORT or KIND? I've learned that the words KIND and SORT are "synonyms", and I'm not sure "when to use one or other word". Could you please clarify "what is the correct use of these 2 similar words"? Thanks in advance!!!  Lilly Els |

| Re: SORT or KIND? Yep. Sort is a French word meaning classification, kind is an Anglo-Saxon word meaning family belonging or category. |
