Technically, it’s an “ible” it’s able to convert

I generally go the other way. I refer to my wife as my “first wife” when introducing her.

Son you’re on an online car forum. Let’s not act like any of us are cool here.
Why do you say Olds instead of Oldsmobile? |

"Vert" just doesn't sound very flattering or complimentary. Shortened proper names like Olds and Vette have passed the test of time and have no negative or cheap connotation.
"Why'd you buy a 'vert?" (Sounds somewhat pejorative)... "Why'd you buy a convertible?" (A little more positive and complimentary). Rag-top, drop top, and others seem to be simply a little more whimsical and good-natured and roll off the tongue easier... When pressed for space, like on one's Avatar, if the owner is ok with 'vert, it's his call. Just a thought.... |
