User talk:74.140.115.170

The word "respectively" is used to clarify something in a sentence. For example:

Cooking salmon and trout give 90 and 70 experience.

What the "90" and "70" experience mentioned in this sentence refers to (salmon or trout) is unclear. Adding "respectively" at the end effectively clarifies that the salmon gives 90 experience and trout gives 70 experience. Hope this is clear enough. 11:25, September 17, 2009 (UTC)
