if the United States speaks Spanish instead of American English, it would certainly not have developed into the country it is today.
miser is not the same as “greedy old penny-pincher”

when and how did “Mexico” become a derogatory word in California?
just because ‘the definition for miser somehow, and some when, changed from “grumpy person who lives in the past”, to “someone stingy over money and is cheapskate”’ is not mentioned elsewhere, does not make it false.
miser does not mean someone who is a cheapskate, it means a “grumpy person who prefers living in the past”

cite a dictionary from before 2016, instead, that’s not online
“Miser is a grumpy person who lives in the past, instead of the present”, was the definition people used in the US before 2016.
“Miser is a grumpy person who lives in the past, instead of the present”, was the definition people used in the US before 2016.
it feels like the English language has become simpler in vocabulary, like Chinese language, since 2017

what makes you think I’m baiting? I recommend you learning German or Japanese languages, or even Modern Hebrew (compared to Hebrew from the Roman era), rather than Chinese language.

just because there is no equivalent word for miser in the Chinese language, as someone who infatuates over the past and grumpy about the present, doesn’t mean the word does not exist in the English language.
most households will not dump hot, concentrated lye down the drain, regularly or even everyday, so no problem :) Thank you for the information
