Well, ok, how about: "The polarness of a Galapagos Penguin is radically different to a King Penguin since the former is* the most Northerly of all the species of penguin" compared to "Reverse the polarity of the neutron flow"
*Note to self: must NOT say "A beautiful and valuable beast, while the latter is not loveable nor useful in the least". Oh, no, how can I have a POEM as an earworm?
Yeah, hence the snigger, cos I made the word up. It means the degree of being polar. I thought it was such a good example that it should be used anyway regardless of whether or not I made it up.
