Mwa haha.... like most Singaporeans, I was quite comfortable about using that word. And then I come (no pun intended :P ) to America and learn about its other meaning :oops: . I looked up google and found out it has dual meanings.

cum1
ko͝om,kəm/
preposition
combined with; also used as (used to describe things with a dual nature or function).
"a study-cum-bedroom"

My pet peeve. Stick it to Latin phrases please. Using it with regular English words will just end with hilarity.

Isn't that the way it goes?

I despise it in all it's uses.
I not lawyer/teacher/CPA.
You've been arrested? Law Society of Singapore can provide referrals.
You want an International School job? School website or http://www.ISS.edu
Your rugrat needs a School? Avoid for profit schools
You need Tax advice? Ask a CPA
You ran away without doing NS? Shame on you!

There are a lot of salons in Vietnam (and other nearby places) where the answer is "Yes, as long as you tip".
