1938 Packard Posted April 14, 2018 Share Posted April 14, 2018 How is that even a phrase? Manhattan was uninhabitable until it was developed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hornshire Posted April 14, 2018 Share Posted April 14, 2018 Phrases are created by combining words in an arrangement that produces meaning of some significance. Swamps tend to be regarded as uninhabitable because you can't build on them. Most of the time, it's a reference to the hardships created by the physical terrain. Occasionally, though, it's used to convey disdain for the local populace and their culture, like if it were applied to, say, Jersey. 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KreiaDidNothingWrong Posted April 15, 2018 Share Posted April 15, 2018 uninhabited* uninhabitable refers to things like the surface of the sun, or parts of Antarctica where you can't grow anything or build a feasible shelter uninhabited just means no one lived there people did live in what we call Manhattan too.

Okay, so if I drop you in the center of Teton National Forest with nothing but your iPhone, you can call me and say how habitable it is after three months.
