Agreed! And the word “preventative” should not be in the dictionary. The “ta” adds nothing.

I've always tried to teach people, what is the root of preventive? Is it preventate? Or is it prevent? Because preventate is not a word..
Same feelings about "conversating". Is conversate a word?

Thank goodness for your corrected post! When I read your previous one, I thought “Wait - what? I’ve been saying ‘orientation’ my entire life! It’s not a real word?” So now I can breathe a sigh of relief, and my world is comfy once again.
