Vise versa?Vice versa means the reverse of the previous statement, with the main items transposed. It derives from Latin, with the translation being 'the other way round' or 'the position being reversed', but is now fully absorbed into English.
It is usually used to imply the complement of a statement without expressing as much in words. For example:
"Fish can't live where we are most comfortable, and vice-versa".
Often mispronounced, as vie-sa ver-sa, and consequently misspelt as visa versa. It should be pronounced vie-si ver-sa. With the order reversed
EX: "she hates him and vice versa". reverse |
