Why!? !? Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: Using Fame and Shame does rhyme, but doesn't do your question due credit!. Persons of great notoriety are said to be 'Famous' if they are perceived as good!. They are said to be 'Infamous" if they are perceived as bad!. Adolf Hitler and Joseph Stalin are Infamous were as Mother Theraesa or Ghandi are Famous!. The application of these two terms for many people of notoriety depends on opinion!. Most people, and most definately the French would say that he is famous!. If you or I were Brittish we would probably call him Infamous!.Www@QuestionHome@Com |
