Fomenting war. Fermenting war would probably be a good thing, considering that part of the fermentation process is waiting. Ah, if only world leaders could take a page from your book, though. "Should I try some war? Nah, I think I'll let it ferment some more..." *Goes back to sharpening shiv to protect their toilet ~~wine~~ war.*
Considering the quality of the kremlin's war machine, fermenting seems pretty accurate. Both are same PIE root btw, meaning to heat up.
Ugh, just do me now. Nothing sexier than some etymology from a stranger. Sincerely, I appreciate that tidbit more than sarcastic-sounding typed words can express.
I just like doublets, I think it gives some interesting perspective. Those pair with fever and thus fervor as well. Different levels of burning/boiling.
