Not long ago in this column, I talked a bit about the expression “step foot,” as in “I wouldn’t step foot in that store.” The first time I heard it, I was embarrassed for the speaker who, I was sure, meant “set foot.” The second, third and fourth times I heard it, I sensed a change was underway — and I’m not a fan of change (that’s an understatement). Eventually, I looked it up and learned that “step foot” is slowly gaining on “set foot,” whether I like it or not.

You probably don’t read a lot of books written in the 1820s. But if you did, you’d see the word “belie” a lot more. According to Google Ngram Viewer, in the early 1800s, “belie” appeared in books about four times as often as it does now. Maybe that’s why I find the word a little intimidating. I never use it, partly because its definition is confusing, but mostly because its past tense is terrifying. Today I belie, yesterday I belay? Belaid? Belied? And what about in its -ing form? Beling?
