Word Rant: Site / Sight / Cite
Today's Rant deals with the proper use of the words site, sight, and cite. Since these words sound identical, it can be hard to know which one to use when. Here are their proper uses:
- Site: Location. Also, a collection of connected web pages on the internet. Examples: They arrived at the site an hour late. Visit my web site.
- Sight: Vision. Also, see. Examples: He was in my line of sight. He sighted along the barrel.
- Cite: To quote or reference. Example: Cite your source.
