Inception

Post by Rob »

My youngest daughter has just seen the film Inception with Leonard whatisname and she asked me what does the word Inception mean.
I had no idea!!
I looked in the dictionary well i googled it( something i very rarely do!!) and it said " noun-an event that is a beginning" !! What? :?
When would you use this word in everyday conversation?
Probably me i know and people use this word all the time but i've never heard of it but then again i'm i'd never heard of "innit". :oops:

It is used quite often.

Did she understand the movie? It is rather confusing. I think you would have to watch it several times to get the whole plot. A bit like Donnie Darko, one of my favorite movies.

It does mean beginning, the inception of something is the beginning. I do agree, when would you use this - don't think I ever have :?

I went to see Inception tonight. Thought it a very good film so recommend it to any one. I was worrie dthat I wouldn't follow the plot but actually it made more sense than the last two James Bond films :-)
