adverb
In truth: fairly, genuinely, indeed, positively, really, truly, truthfully, verily. Idioms: for fair. See real/imaginary, true/false.
In point of fact: indeed, really. See real/imaginary, true/false.
At this moment: currently, now. Idioms: evenjustrightnow. See time.
better to use this word, then turning to someone who has just said something completely ignorant and responding with terminology that is often used in biker bars.

I used the form "actual" in regards to "alledge" quite often in warehouse records. Does that count as over usage?

Actually - I am VERY guilty of this overused word.
A friend of ours started using it, and darned if I didn't pick it up - without realizing it. (it's kind of like working somewhere where people swear alot - one day, you are just talking normally, and a swear word you would never say before - just pops out).
I hate when that happens!

Ah, Trish - kids NEED to ask 'WHY' - of course, sometimes they drive us nuts, and we don't know the answer to "why", so our kids would probably like a quarter every time we say "because I said so, that's why".

For awhile - everyone was mimicking Saddam Hussein - it was the "MOTHER" of everything - drove me nuts - the mother of all cars, the mother of all storms, the mother of all peanuts, etc., etc., etc.
