10. Paradoxical (seemingly impossible)? More than incredible

Counter-intuitive – not as string but certainly apt for your example.

And unbelievable – is means exactly the same as incredible, but it may have some stronger

connotations because the link to stronger forms of beliefs is more obvious.

possible’. It’s rare enough to be self-emphasising. But it doesn’t fit as a descriptor for a

theory, of course.

/tʃɛk/. The difference between the usage in a restaurant and in a bank is usually

distinguished by the articles used. In a restaurant, (unless you’re writing your request to the

waiter, which seems unlikely) you ask for /ðə’tʃɛk/ (note the definite article the). In a

bank, however, you cash /É™’tʃɛk/ (note indefinite article a).
