What i find more interesting is what is the end goal of this conversation. You and i both know everyone on earth refers to desert as a host place with a lot of sand.
Perhaps i am thinking too deep but It’s hard for me to not make a parallel with something that happened locally were during an interview on tv our vice president used the wrong suffix to pluralize the word “poor”. He isn’t know for being a smart guy so it cemented it even further and everyone was making fun of him for this blunder. Later, his wife who is an author wrote an entire page on the newspaper trying to defend him by saying the word he said does exist and refers to a traditional irrigation technique and went on describing it’s historical significance and all that.
Am not an psychologist nor an anthropologist but i wonder what does this say about humans and how they interact with other groups ?
Deserts are cold too. In fact Antarctica is a desert

I already knew this but thanks anyway. Yet, let us not play around with semantics . A desert usually refers to a hot place with a lot of sand.
A desert refers to climate. And the amount of rain it gets. It’s not semantics.
Even host deserts will freeze you out at night. It’s very common to go from 100 F to snowfall overnight in places like Reno Nevada.
Tl:dr - I’m not sure I believe you.
It doesn’t matter.
