Our family, like Charity's, is one that plays with words a lot and we use

budge positively all the time, for example "why don't you budge out of that

chair so I can vaccuum underneath." In playing parchesi it's only natural

that if you can say "He's not budging from that spot," to then say when the

player finally moves, "Look, he budged." But this is only within the

confines of our home.
