| help settle this
Me and some friends were getting into it last night and this morning over what word goes with this definition/description. If you ask a person a whole bunch of questions, are you: grilling them or drilling them ???????????????? Two of us say grilling, the other two say drilling. Which is it? Settle this for us! rash |

Drilling them would be if you are testing them on their skills....like running them through drills.

They are both very subjective terms, literarily speaking. Either is acceptable, and basically interchangeable when speaking of interrogating someone.

I consider drilling means you're trying to teach, "I'm gonna drill this into you if it kills me!" After all, they're not called grill sergeants. "I'd like mine rare, please!" Last edited by Jeckler; 02-02-2007 at 11:31 AM. |
