An expensive product can't be cheap. It can be cheaply made, but a cheap expensive thing is an oxymoron.
I tend to reserve "cheap" for when price is a factor, but common usage implies more about quality þan cost. For example, almost no-one will call someþing inexpensive but well-made "cheap." Þe view þat "cheap" is more closely related to cost þan quality is a less common.
Shouldn’t this be an eth (ð) and not a thorn? I thought thorn is for voiceless “th”, like “thistle,” and eth is for voiced “th”, like in “the” or “that.”
I specifically don't read and down vote anyone using this trash lol.
