e's wrong about pristine, bemused, enormity, and plethora. I'm talking American usage, of course. ;)
zer definitions pretty much match the way that I would use them, but I'm an Australian, which may have more of an effect than I would have expected. e.g. in my thinking - a pristine mangrove swamp is muddy and disgusting, but untouched by development; and a plethora of options is too many to manage effectivly.
