Weary is feeling or showing tiredness.
Wary is feeling or showing caution.
One of the easiest typos that Microsoft Word’s spellcheck (and Grammarly) won’t catch is just the case of an accidental ‘e’. Because of this, it’s a word I have on my list of words to search for when editing to verify the context. Because, as almost interchangeable as these words can be, the intention of having someone be too tired to care vs. worrying is a big difference in defining your character.
WORDING is an ongoing (but irregular) series of posts I’ll be making about words. I won’t always delve into proper use. depending on the word and what it means to me and potentially others there may be articles about words that trigger me, words I love, words that always look misspelled to me and more.
