When you don’t want to USE something anymore you refUSE it when they offer it to you.

    No refuge means a place of safety. When you refuse something that is a verb and it means to object to something, for example. When it is a noun then it means garbage. It is spelled the same, but used differently when a noun or verb. You really got me there. I had to make sure so I checked it out.

      Thanks for taking the time in responding. As I recall you find spelling much easier than I. if you have any ideas on how to remember a spelling of a word with a visual image or a Mnemonic device, please share. I’m greedy.
