No English dictionary has been able adequately to explain

the difference between “COMPLETE” and “FINISHED”.

 

However, in a recent linguistic conference held in London

and attended by some of the best linguists in the world.

 

Cedo Dimitrovski, a Macedonian from Skopje,

was the clear winner. His final challenge was this:

 

Some say there is no difference between “COMPLETE” and FINISHED.

Please explain the difference between COMPLETE and FINISHED

in a way that is easy to understand.

 

Here is his astute answer:

 

"When you marry the right woman, you are COMPLETE.

But, when you marry the wrong woman, you are FINISHED.

And when the right one catches you with the wrong one,

you are COMPLETELY FINISHED!"

 

 

His answer was received with a standing ovation lasting over 5 minutes.
